The thing got 14 million views on youtube, honestly i was i expecting to do much better on amazon, where games ranked 7-10 for the month can do less then 100k, i'm expecting  150-200k for labo, april npd

You were the one pointing out its previous weak performance and were so quick to say people werent interested in it based on the same Amazon performance you are now downplaying. Your negativity about all things Nintendo clouds your judgement.

It is now above GOW in Japan, Canada and the US and even if that doesnt tell us it will sell anywhere close to GOW, it does tell us there is a lot of interest in it.

 

Even the Robot kit isnt doing too badly everywhere.

The more unboxings/assembly videos I watch, the more brilliant I realize Labo is. I also kind of wonder if the original concept possibly used different material other than cardboard but to make it affordable cardboard was the way to go? Plus it's also the GREENER way to go, a low grade, thin plastic may not have been too biodegradable. 

I do wish this was maybe $39-49, the market potential would be HUGE at that pricepoint but Nintendo of course likes comfy profit margins lol

How long has Breath of the Wild been out of Stock? a few weeks? I wonder what the deal is.

It’s been in and out since I can’t remember. The games used to be in the top 10 but because of stock problems it’s not.

Physical versions of God of War still sold out on Amazon..... jeez.

It really does seem that my theory that amazon is having logistic issues or worse are not fans of video game division of the store. They are getting slower at updating SKUs as well.

Is it possible that they just don't have stock. I mean look it was In the top 10 forever.

Looks like Labo might get off to a good start.
