Smash is killing it. People say the directs are unnecessary, but they are certainly helping

Great days for Smash.

jkh3 very good

Too much Smash directs huh?

Even with 2 great days for Smash it fell further behind the 3DS version. Hope it keeps strong for the remaining month. Good to see some movement for Pokemon as well.

Since it's less than 2 weeks till release can we get some updated comparison between it and the recent Pokemon remakes/spinoffs?

Ya I'll look through this and the old thread and post them in a bit. When I posted a few weeks ago it had already far exceeded the last day points of all the recent spinoffs so I won't bother with posting them again.

12 days
X/Y-1644
OR/AS-1350
S/M-1424
US/UM-546
Let's Go-223

Considering the Switch's install base compared to the 3DS's during the time of its peak, its not too bad. 

3DS had ~2.4x the install base of Switch when XY released but it had over 7x the amount of pre-orders.

I know it's not a 1:1 comparison, XY was a traditional new generation while Let's Go is a casual remake but its still pretty low for a mainline title.

Hopefully it has a good ratio and strong legs.
