There's a lot of difference between the three outlets. Do they have all the same parameters? Do they all included bundles? Digital?



Signature goes here!

I still wonder why they released 3 Masuo in the same day. That is like Nintendo releasing a port to Wind Waker, Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess all in the same day.

Also Switch sales are nice. I heard it was still sold out everywhere.



Tag:I'm not bias towards Nintendo. You just think that way (Admin note - it's "biased".  Not "bias")
(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

As far as I know. Famitsu includes Digital cards that is bought on the store.

And don't quote me on this but I think the 3 of them use different samples to estimate sales. 
I am not really sure better asked the Japanese residence that post here.

Occultic 9 did OK by the looks of it. Sellthrough is definitely correct.

WO3U sold 2300 units, awful sellthrough. The 2 others are even worse, I wonder what KT thinks of that...
But we definitely need more data to ascertain 3rd party chances on Switch. When is Doom releasing in Japan?

Ya they should have either been sold together as a compilation or spread out over the course of a few months.

3rd parties ignoring switch would be unfortunate. I brought up some titles that did better on Switch than the other platforms not long ago as far as Amazon is concerned.

ryuzaki, perhaps you've forgotten?

Amazon rankings has no relevance when we have actual sales data from MC. Why would the sales on US Amazon have anything to do with Japanese sales?

Third party is third party whether here in the US or in Japan. ryuzaki57 brings up some examples and I bring up some of my own.

Considering that DQ Heroes, DQX, MHXX, USFII, Bomberman, Xenoverse 2 all did good than yes i would say these Mosou games prove nothing.

In case you didn't realize, DQH Switch and MHXX are the least-selling entries in their respective franchises, selling several times less than the original versions.
