Yep God of War is confirmed over GTA SA, which sold 2.06m in October 2004.

On ResetEra, Zhuge said it was under 2.06 million. Perhaps its ahead in revenue, not units?

Yeah I suppose the quote does say dollar sales. On the other hand I am pretty sure NPD doesn't include bundles. If we go by the $50 for GTA SA and $60 for God of War then GoW sold around 1.72m.

Doesn't tell us anything without the hard numbers ... 

The gap between Far Cry 5 and Labo remains unknown for April ...

He says it's "fine", it would seem to depend on individual or aggregate expectations ... 

Depending on what most think of the hard numbers if it sells under 150K to maybe even under 200K in April, it maybe quite a few would consider it a "bomb" so to speak ...

First he knows numbers, second he said it did fine, not great or not terrible. So with that on mind and fact thats 4. best selling game of month, we can say its fact that Labo didnt bombed.

Main reason why people thouth that Labo bombed is that is not selling great like they expected, but point that it did not sold great doesn't mean it bombed also, its sold OK/fine, not great or terrible.

Agreed. It didn't bomb. It sold to Nintendo enthusiasts which is why it had minimal if any impact on hardware sales.

Agree, it seems that Labo definitely didn't moved Switch hardware, but it will be interesting to pay attention Labo sales in following months especially during Holiday season when could move some units also.
