so, do you think Pokemon Sword, Shield will break the record for first week sales in japan? Smash holds the record right?

Due to the vouchers, I think it might be slightly lower than what smash did. However if there was no vouchers then it would easily

I believe Pokemon Sw/Sh are included as part of the voucher program. It will be interesting to see what's the ratio between digital and physical, considering the vouchers. Plus, isn't the Nintendo Store in Japan taking pre-orders as well?

Why do people think the voucher s will still be an important factor for the sales of Pokémon when it's a deal only Nintendo Online subscribers can have access to + I'm pretty sure most of them were already used for most of the releases during this year.

They have impacted smm2 and fire emblem, why wouldn’t they continue to impact other titles? Also, in Japan the vouchers never stopped being sold. They are still being sold unlike in North America so they can still be used

How do you know?

All Nintendo first-party games have 35%+ digital sales in 2019.

"Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?"

...That's gotta be the most WTF name I've ever heard for a video game... Or any form of media now that I think about it.

Wait, those Vouchers are not available in the US anymore? Last time I checked (last week), they still did in Europe, and even got an ad for them.
