Nintendo isn't totally devoid of third-party games, however. Mario+Rabbids, Fire Emblem Warriors, Project Octopath traveller, Skyrim, Doom,  BA2k, FIFA, WWE, Rayman legends, la.moire, batman:the telltale series are all third party. More third party is on the way as well, like Wolfenstein and Steep.

I didn't  say nintendo doesn't  have thirdparty support, but none are system sellers, none have even broke a million, now compare that to nintendo games, which if you look at sales is clearly whats selling switch.

True that's right.

But still, Skyrim will break 1 million without a shadow of a doubt. Same with mario+rabbids.

And if Octopath Traveller catches on with people, it can also manage 1 million theoretically.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

there is nothing pointing to skyrim doing 1 million. mario rabbis doesn't count its using the mario ip.

Switch would have beaten PS4 inthe U.S. without that 2 month advantage iirc.That being said both consoles are doing great and PS4 will win WW

Would the Switch have won without the launch advantage though?

Launch advantage? Yeah, because consoles have there strongest year launch year....

Mario X Rabbids is developed internally by Ubisoft, and also published by Ubisoft. By all defenitions it's a third party game, It using the the Mario ip doesn't change the fact. Skyrim is a huge juggernaut of a game. The game is carrying PSVR sales at the moment. The special edition also did multiple millions in sales. And with the switch where there is "less choice" of games, people will eat it up.

what? he's not saying that. somebody is saying that ps4 would have lost the US with out the 2 month advantage , but in reality a new console launch should more then enough to make up for the 2 months, because a console launch with high demand could do 1.5 million easy in 2 months with out the holidays.

in the UK it bombed bad on switch. yes mario rabbids is a third-party game but, it using mario, so it's not something you can compare to a regular third party games.

Best Sellers in Video Games
1. PlayStation 4 Slim 1TB Console

It happend... it was #2 for quite some time but it managed to hit #1.

Daaaamn!

Double dipping in the 1st Place, what a beast!

I hope the stock remains solid for the rest of the week.

This is just like a Fast and Furious race, and Sony just hit the NOS button with this price cut.

Im going to be honest, i counted them out but now I'm not so sure! 

So did I. I was at Best Buy Saturday and saw a ton of ps4’s stacked up to the ceiling. Thought it was just for Black Friday but I later found out it was the $199 price cut before Black Friday even started. 

Now im starting to slightly see a possible win for PS4. Crazy month.

UK is one territory out several. One of ninty's weakest markets, and one of the strongest markets for PS/XBOX. Of course it does sub-par there.
