| Louie said: Final Fantasy was a Game Key Card release, so we shouldn't be surprised it underperformed at retail. It probably has a very high digital ratio. There's no reason to buy a GKC instead of downloading a title, it's one of the most stupid ideas Nintendo has ever had. |
We've seen a few Switch 2 key card games outsell the PS5 versions in Japan. Most just don't care. This is FF7 Remake's 4th release after it's PS4, PS5, and PC versions. Also, Japan is known to have low sales for re-released games.
Even in the UK we saw Octopath Traveler 0 has higher sales on Switch 2 vs the other platforms despite being a key card with a much lower install base. I know you and other like to believe key cards don't sell well, but we have sales numbers to prove otherwise.
