Is it supposed to be that sales in Japan for switch and PS4 are EXACTLY th same??? Not even one unit difference?! This is unprecedented lol

Pretty sure they're going to change that. That is ridiculous.

Also, I wish it would show us how the PS4 got all those additional sales. I know it's probably the "Other" part that makes the PS4 have those sales but the streamlined three region count puts the PS4 at only 10k above the Switch. I think someone showed me how to find that sometime but I already forgot.

Well according to the current week 34 sales...

amongst the three major regions:

-PS4 sold 243,762 units

-Switch sold 237,944 units

but amongst the ‘other’ region:

-PS4 sold 68,606 units

-Switch sold 23,402 units

kind of strange as I usually find ‘other’ sales reflect Europe sales quite closely. Also that other sold double the PS4’s as Japan.

Probably in preparation of SMO.

It should be down the week before Mario, not up. Like in Japan.

Fire Emblem Warriors release shold push it up a bit, but it's a bit too much, I agree

Unlike in Japan, stock is not an issue for all parts in Europe.

Yeah, Switch adjusted down to 180k.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I haven't complained much about VGChartz tracking before but how did they go that off?

Ugh, anyways better change the OP I guess.

Ugh, that was some stupid mistake made in Germany.

I was so excited by the numbers Switch really needed Odyssey to pick up the pace.

I demand an update. It is mine, by right.

If a Kid Icarus Sequel or Donkey Kong Sequel releases next year it could do really well with core gamers.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
