Same, especially with it coming so soon after VII R you'd imagine a good 50% of people didn't actually get to the end yet in order to be playing Rebirth.
Remakes physical total was last recorded to be 35.7k so probably around 40-45k now. Rebirth opened to around 70% of Remakes total Switch 2 physical sales. Definitely better than expected. Will probably be front loaded but curious to see if it surprises us
My suspicion and I guess it makes sense is that a high number of people on Switch owners already played VII R on PS4 but not nearly as many played Rebirth. So Rebirth may have been more highly anticipated.
I think it's probably no accident that SE revealed Revelations 2 days after Rebirth came out, I'm sure that helped. Very smart timing on their side.
