Forums - Sales - Switch Software Is Dominating Amazon

Top 10 items on amazon for PlayStation:
America - 7/10
Japan - 3/10
Canada - 3/10
UK - 7/10
France - 5/10
Germany - 7/10
Italy - 8/10
Spain - 5/10
India - 7/10

Judging by the amazon top 10's I'd say Playstation is dominating not Switch although Switch is doing very well.

I think even in few years when some Switch games will be top selling games on Amazon some people will still saying that's because Switch doesn't have games.

Probably, the old "no gaemz" excuse kept getting wheeled out during Wii's reign even after it had accumulated a great library.

Seems less dominating and more.. just there.
Three of the four are: A game that just released, a game released a month ago, and something releasing soon.

With their placements being 4, 7, 12 and 15.

If they were #1 through 4 that would be dominating. As of now one isn't even beating the third gift cards. Zelda and Mario kart were able to do it, SF and Arms so far haven't.

After looking it up myself, my first reaction is, holy cats, PSN cards are actually dominating.  Even the $100 card is in the top 4.  In May?  What are people buying that they need a $100 PSN card?

Besides that, the Switch games seem to be doing well.  No much competition, though, other than the pre-order for Tekken and the Crash pre-order for the end of June.  Heck, the Far Cry 5 pre-order is in the top 15 games and that releases next year.

I suppose Nintendo gamers need something to play after they're done with 1-2-Switch.

Psn gets awesome sale after awesome sale. A ton of games get heavily discounted every month on the store.  I'm not surprised people are buying psn codes in their droves.  And apart from that people would be pre ordering the block buster games set to release through out the rest of the year. 



good for the NS.

Yup, Wii had huge library, but if you look at most selling Wii games, you will see that top 15 best selling Wii games are all Nintendo games.

What's that got to do with what I said?

How does the top fives look, tho. Switch is only a couple months old so it obviously wouldn't be able to dominate any top 10 list yet.

Relax, no need for defence guard, I just confirming point that Nintendo games are not selling great because they are no other games on platform.

Right now the top 4 selling software titles on Amazon.com are (in order) ARMS, Ultra Street Fighter II, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild. 

Man, Switch owners are buying software like crazy. 

So 3 ports and 1 multiplayer game?

Where's the old Nintendo

Zelda being titled a port instead of multiplat is kinda strange. I guess PS4 and X1 get mostly ports then.
