How many million sellers will the Switch have in its second year?

1-2 6 6.90%
 
3-4 6 6.90%
 
5-6. 10 11.49%
 
7-8 10 11.49%
 
9-10 15 17.24%
 
More than 10 million sellers. 40 45.98%
 
Total:87

I have a feeling there will be quite a few games crossing the million mark during the next three months.

According to Nintendo, Super Mario Party has sold around 1.5m units during September-October, so it gets added to the list.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Octopsth should be added to the list

I only add games that have official confirmation of being million sellers. SE only confirmed the million shipped as of yet.

"According to them [global shipments and download sales], both shipments and sell-through continued to climb after that, and sell-through has now surpassed 1 million units."

Yes, you're right. I was looking for a SE's announcement, but I guess this counts too.

Which makes me wonder, aside from the obvious additions to smash and Pokemon later, what other games will make the cut?

Also which reminds me I wouldn't be surprised if puyopuyo has made 1 mil though no confirmation

Oh wow, so in the second year we already reached the same number of million sellers as in the first year, without even christmas. Obviously Pokemon and Smash will join, but as this is to the end of financial year, I also expect FIFA 19, Just Dance 19, NSMBUD and Minecraft. Maybe Civilization, I have no idea how well this will do on Switch.

Accodring to this article http://www.vgchartz.com/article/393621/pokemon-lets-go-pikachu-and-lets-go-eevee-sells-over-3-million-units-first-week/ Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu/eevee has passed the million mark handily, so it gets added to the list.

It's guaranteed at this point year 2 will have more million sellers than year 1 as Smash next week and NSMB in January that will be 12 million sellers. Year 3 will be interesting to watch.
