Nice to see Crash doing somewhat well.

Hope it's a huge success on Switch.

The bigger the success, the more likely we'll get more of these, so YES!

Sorry for the delay. Couldn't access the page for a few hours yesterday.

Added Mexico (MX) to the list.

KIrby is rolling down in DE and US because of out of stock situation.

Sea of thieves should've been called Sea of Bombs. The only countries showing real love are CA, UK, FR and US.

Mexicans are loving kirby lol.

Thanks! Since it will probably flop on Xbox One, I hope it does really well on Switch so future releases become multiplatform too.

Lets not make up our minds 4 MONTHS before launch, shall we. Four months ago kirby wasnt charting. Doesnt mean its going to flop.

Crash will flop on X1. It will sell at least 3x more on Switch

Whats crazy right now is the top20 is basically all Switch games.
Then top20-40 is when you start seeing PS4 games.

Sea of theives is #42 atm (it releases in 6-7 days).... and is the highest ranked Xbox game.
Makes you wonder what people are buying the xbox for? like what games are they buying with it? if software is this low.
either its digital sales are nuts, or its just standing on a table and being used as a 4k Blu-ray player.

Position on Amazon doesn’t mean much. As I said before - several games not in the top 10 will appear on NPD’s top 10.

Yeap multiplat does that. Also digital

I think you guys forgot what "flopping" means. 

Is this port gonna make back less money than it was made for? I highly,, highly doubt, considering the cost of making a port as opposed to a brand new game.



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.

I'm totally coming back to this after NPD to know how accurate this is once and for all.

We don’t know the costs tho. When I say “flop” for instance I mean like... something below 800k. It’s more like flop compared to the other versions and game’s potential. We’re talking about units, not money.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Amazon buyers usually buy physical copies. Don’t understand why people asking GTA 5 or whatever?

You know where that is? The PSN card you see that’s your GTA.

Honest question here: Does VgChartz count those as physical sales?

Octopath is #1 in Germany right now !

The game already sold over 5 million on PS4 and the XBO version will have to compete with Switch version as well, 800k would be a very good result.

 

Do you think Skyrim flopped on Switch? Because based on your criteria it did.
