Give it a rest Laura. What a attention hog.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Not really. The 2 million in sales is to retailers not consumers. They expect WW retailers to buy 2MM consoles to be shipped to their stores for launch and immediate follow-up basically. 

THough with the right launch library and a $250 price tag, this could sell 2MM in first two weeks WW easily. Going to have to wait for January to see if that is a remote possiblity ofcourse.

I can see it selling 2 milliion within the first week. Didn't the Wii U sell like 3 million in two weeks?

That source doesn't also know price and games? I'd think all of those things would go hand in hand but I don't know.

No, it launched Nov 18 (America), Nov 30 (Europe/Australia), Dec 8 (Japan) & shipped 3.06 million by Dec 31.

But remember this, it was overshipped at launch and the next 3 quarters only saw a combined 850k additional units shipped.

Assuming this ends up true, I know what I'm getting for my birthday...



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
