Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Japan Splatoon: FW 97.3% Sell Thru (148.7k) and Splatoon Amiibo Sells 106k!

Whoa! Good numbers indeed!

Yeah i'm definitely eating crow on this one. Splatoon is far more successful than I thought it would be.



Splatoon domination! Half the people on this forum were expecting those numbers on its first month.



I think those W101 LT sales predictions by a number of people could be a gross underestimate seeing as that's almost half W101's sales in one week in Japan.



I expect even better numbers for Yoshi.

Around 150k again next week then?

Insane sellthrough percentage

I figured it would do okay. But I'm not sure I can't get behind the notion it will sell millions... unless there is mass bundling.

Someone in the Comg thread (I think tbone..?) said it had over 40k digital because physical was sold out so quickly, so it had about 190k first week. I hope it shows good legs too. If amazon.jp is any indication it's doing good, though.
Retailers really underestimated this one. Now I can't wait to see how it did in other regions. I think my WW FW prediction was somwhere around 350k. If it did as good in NA and europe as it did in japan that might be blown out of the water.



That sell through is just ridiculous. Excellent start for it and it's a good indication of legs, hopefully. Once again if only Nintendo had more they could have made more money...



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Hopefully demand will still be there next week and Nintendo is able to match it this time, so far the numbers are great.
