VGC is still missing three weeks to end of june for software and four for hardware. That explains most of the difference.

Aye, I took that in to account. As I believe abroz did. If it continues selling it's current rate then VGC figures would put it around 3.27m at the same time. Leaving almost a 700k gap, which would be about 16 or 17% of total sales and quite possibly the digital amount.

Oh, right. I had Zelda-momentum taken into account incorrectly. Yes, that leaves a gap too big.

That reminds me, some weeks ago for sales comparisons was argued that Horizon sold much more digital and therefore is in front of Zelda. This numbers shows that either VGC has Zelda undertracked or digital is much higher than anticipated (more 20%than 10%).

Wait, Arms sold 1.18 million copies in 15 days? Awesome! Is that including digital?

Yes, all Nintendo figures for games including digital sales.

All Nintendo 1st party games released on the Switch have reached over 1 million as of June, just wow.

Plus Nintendo Switch sales almost at 5 million already is seriously impressive, for only 4 months on the market, and it's no where close to the holiday season yet, you need to get shipping more units!

Don't forget that VGC doesn't include digital, so unless it had the worst digital sales rate ever then the undertrack would be a fair bit less than that.

Actually, if around 16 or 17% of Zelda sales are digital (would actually be below the average digital %) then VGC would be almost spot on. So depending on digital, could actually be a bit overtracked.

VGC is still missing three weeks to end of june for software and four for hardware. That explains most of the difference.

Yes I took that into account. Let's say it averages 65k for the remaining three weeks => 195k + 3,065k (vgchartz) = 3,26k. 

Nintendos number is at 3,92 - 3,26 = 660k

 

So then around 660k left for digital. 

 



Think for yourself, question authority

Yep. Publishers always include their digital sales when they give out figures.

That's exciting! Also wtf is pcs? Is that "pieces"? That's what i'm assuming

3ds is almost guaranteed to hit 70 million. And how's the Switch sales stack up vs the other Nintendo's console/handheld in the same timeframe?



A handheld gamer only (for now).

Yeah I know it's units but i kind of assumed pcs = pieces = units or something like that . Maybe i'm just dumb lol

On second thoughts, far out, 1.2 million for ARMS in two weeks is pretty freaking insane given its a new IP on a userbase of just 4.7 million.

That would make it Nintendo's fastest selling new IP since what, Wii Fit?

In same time period 3DS done around 4.3m, while Wii U 10 months after launch still was under 4m.
