It is more and more the case in our globalized information world, that people know beforehand of the release of a game and are even hyped for that game. Many have preorded. This means, that on the first day of sales happens as much sales, as in a whole month following the first day. We respect games that sell over time by saying these games have 'legs', but even this games sell much more on first day than the following.

Not sure what you mean here because people know beforehand because of advertising it's been that way for decades now, MK8 on Wii U went on to sell over 8m over time which is much more than what it did on the first day or month.

Mario Kart wins !

It means nothing for first week sales because games sell 90% of their FW numbers on the first day, but with monthly charts it does matter. To be fair, P5 was the only major release besides MK8D. P5 had 4 weeks and a much bigger install base and still didn't break Top 5.

The correct thing to say should be "with only 1 week of sales", regardless

OT: Didn't BotW only outsell HZD for 1 or 2 weeks? Those boosts were pretty big if it ended up outselling HZD by that many spots. Nice to see Rocket League so high.

I think it's more that people consider it to be something of note.

It's surprising to see that Zelda did better than Horizon in UK, but not in Germany.

Very nice to see, also nice to see Zelda holding up well also

As sad as I am to admit it, Ka-pi is right here, guys.

I'm gonna have to request your Nintendo Defence Force badge by midnight.
