Yes, current version, it is no question that it will not reach the peak numbers. There aren't even enough Switches in the Wild. No, so far still current versions sell best on Wii. My question is if Switch can challenge this position.

Well it's hardly what anyone would call a big series anymore when it's latest entry couldn't even track 3M units with all versions combined on here ... 

While the Wii is declining the Switch doesn't have the same demographics so I think the Wii is at an advantage and 3rd party games on the Switch isn't doing hot ...

The Switch really doesn't have the same demogrpahics as the Wii ... 

The customers for it largely consists of older males and I doubt most of them are interested in Just Dance ...

I meant the second part. 



Who cares? Just Dance is nothing but shovelware.

~85% of the Switch's total software sales so far disproportionately comes from 5 titles that also comes from the very same console manufacturer and it's only going to get more lopsided once Super Mario Odyssey is in play ... 

For comparison the 3DS only had just over half of it's total software sales come from the same software manufacturer ... 

I realize that it's early in the Switch's life so far but there's no 3rd party killer app for the Switch to work with in the near future and the 3rd party games aren't coming in fast enough on the Switch ... 

None of the 3rd party Switch games have hit half a million units sold and only six 3rd party games were able to sell over 100K units on the Switch ...

It just seems odd to me to say that third parties aren't doing well when the software is selling dispraportionately well on the Switch then it would on other platforms. Of course that is partially because the Switch has "no games", and it's also because the Vita fanbase is starting to cross over. But for what third party support the Switch is getting? Those games are selling well. Street Figher 2 sold 450k back in July 28th, so it definitely sold more than 100k. Super Bomberman R shipped 500k in it's first month. I wouldn't split hairs over this but both of these were pretty publically announced and were huge news back when the sales data was first shared ...

I do agree with your comment for the most part though. So thanks for clearing up your point.



I remember back in 2009 when someone made a thread on what was going on with Just Dance. People were confused on why this title was just doubling its sales every week. Little did we know the monster that would awaken months later.

Anyway in real talk I don't think the Switch version will outsell the Wii version this year. However I do expect it to happen next year.

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

Eventually, I can see it happening, but not this year

Hahaaaaa, that was a good title thread joke. You got me at the end.

As for the Switch versions dethroning the Wii ones, I wonder at this point if the Dance series is still popular these days...
