The article isn't specifying if it includes Wii U, Switch alone or overall. Just that Zelda sold 900k physical units.

Isn't it 1.4 million switch and WiiU combined.

This is what we know: Zelda sold 1.385 million overall (Switch + Wii U + digital), 925k from Switch and 460k from Wii U (Nintendo reported this last week). NPD says it sold 900k physically in March, but didn't specify if it was on Switch alone, which it could be. 



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.

KH 1.5+2.5 released in the last week and placed at #11 and #5 in the PS4 category. Nice.

Zelda beat Horizon?

Zelda did 1.38m and Horizon 646k but that does include digital so its going to be higher but i dont think it will be that close ot Zelda. But Horizon did really good for a new IP.

Weird that Halo Wars 2 made it into the top 10 for XOne this month but not last months top 10.

Ok, fixed the Zelda thing. At least over 900k.
NPD software charts will be Top 20 from now on.

Makes sence, more people have a Wii U in 2017 compared to 2014.

Barely.

This genuinely made me chuckle.

Wait...Nier automata is in the top 10 yeeeeessssssss. I wonder what are its numbers, I guess 200k+? The Kingdom Hearts collection did better than I thought it would.

I miss getting PS4 & XBO hardware numbers.

RIP Aqua



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
