Looks like "Xenoblade Chronicles 2" is close to passing "XCX" LTD in under a month. Digital sales are sure to be higher with this one as well.

There's a good chance XC2 hits 1m in time for Nintendo's quarterly financials.

If XC 2 manages to sell 1 million units by the end of 2017, even if its numbers are shipped, it would put the game as the best selling Xenoblade by a long shot.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

What’s with the different numbers on MC and famitsu? They’re a bit off compared to each other, surely dengeki is similar

Famitsu also track some online retailers.



Some interesting bits of news. Not thread worthy, but nice to know.

Kamiko sold 160k globally.
VOEZ sold over 50K globally.
Flyhighworks says a sequel of OPUS is coming to the Switch.

Holiday in Japan.



Noctis, Kresnik used to include the Dengeki chart that had the total software sales for each console for the week. Could you include it too?

What I've heard is that Famitsu traks more online sales
