Some guys, including myself, would insist that the game is massively overtracked in the United States, while it is slightly undertracked in Europe. Of course, I would remark that the United States were never confirmed, so perhaps we'll never get information about sales ever again.

I just want to say that I want the best sales possible for this game because, number one, is damn good, and number two, I want a third part; but being a bit informed doesn't hurt anyone.

can I ask why this game is overtracker? are you talking about a rumour without actual facts? or real facts. I really want to know. 590,000 is not that big, so I don't know why this game would be overtracked.

Which should have been the first comment.

1. It's called the holidays

It didn't sell "100-150k in 7-10 days". It sold 50k this week and 50k the week before. Something tells me this is too high though...

 holidays sales or not, those are sales. 

Of course. It will drop massively after the holidays so temper your expectations.

I see the "this game is going to fail" trend a lot here, even when the game is not selling that bad compared to other exclusives in other platforms.

It's nice to see a niche game like this to sell pretty well. I'd like it if it reached 1 million, even if it isn't that likely.

Supposedly, a NeoGAF user leaked the numbers, though, obviously, they were never confirmed. Despite that, the game is, supposedly, again, very reliable. It sold 70K copies in October and 25 in November, supposedly, again :/



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

neogaf leak, hmm.. not too reliable, I would respectfully say.

It's not doing horribly but not that well either. It did <100k in its launch month in the US iirc and surely lower than that in Europe. In Japan it has only managed ~60k

I mean, can't we just say VGC is just many fancy roumors XD

But yeah, I do trust a NPD roumor more than this site.



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.

The main focus of this picture isn't the legs... :P


True. Heres a better one:
