I LOVE GIGGS on 23 October 2017

Impressed by Rainbow Six & Zelda. Good legs.

To be precise, it would be 8th in an individual format (by units)



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.

The best-selling games over the last 12 months

  1. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
  2. Battlefield 1
  3. Destiny 2*
  4. Grand Theft Auto V
  5. NBA 2K17
  6. Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands
  7. NBA 2K18
  8. Madden NFL 18
  9. Madden NFL 17
  10. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild**

 

Where's Pokemon Sun/Moon? That's odd unless it's a top 10 revenue sales.

Soooo did Mario + Rabbids did good?

Anything ahead of GTAV is really good. Mario + Rabbids doesn't include digital, btw.

Even though that game is super old? Don't get me wrong, I know it has *great* legs, but does that make up for the sales of the game just because it's above GTA V?

Are those numbers from September or August? 

I believe it sold well, but I also believe nothing wrong with some questioning

Npd is revenue

Appears that switch and PS4 were neck and neck again. I feel like October to switch and then November and December to PS4.

In pretty sure its based on revenue but Sun & Moon are listed as separate games by NPD.

Yeap, pokemon games have huge disavatange. They need to be selling 3x the numbers of $60 games to chart ahead ($40 games but cut in 2 by separate skus)

Happy to see Rayman Legends in the Switch top 10! That game is so good and deserved more sales than it got.
