Daaaang Zelda 18.51 million! Incredible. Next quarter Switch will presumably get two new 20 million sellers to hit nine total! Crazy. Switch's top 10 is a thing of legend. By end of this fiscal year, with Mario Wonder, all 10 should be over 20m, with 7 over 25m, and presumably with another half year or so before successor comes out. And with presumably backwards compatibility next gen (because it'd be completely insane not to) some of these games will keep selling a bit for years as new gamers come of age and want to try out the best of the Switch.

Switch had a great quarter for hardware, but we all knew that was coming with the extended Zelda boost. Looking very good for hitting that 15m figure this fiscal year, especially with a new 2D Mario this Fall. Normal trajectory probably would've put HW sales at just under 3m for the quarter, instead it did a million extra!

Anyone wanna do quarterly sales for those top 10 - how much each sold during the quarter?
