curl-6 said: Hardware is somewhat higher than I expected given the drops we saw in some of the weekly/monthly charts. Even after all these years, the elderly Switch still punches like a champ. Switch Sports is a real standout here; 1.7m for the quarter more than a year and a half after its release is seriously impressive and really goes to show that there's still a lot of interest in this sort of software, contrary to the narrative among some gamers that it was a short-lived fad. Pikmin has also really blossomed on Switch; entries on prior consoles never passed 2 million, yet here it is passing 3 in under 6 months.
No worries, happy to assist. :) |
I appreciate it. I will hopefully not get confused for when Sony releases their earnings report.
I adjusted up our Switch estimates, mainly in regions we get very little data from like mainland Asia, MEA, and "other" Europe.
