Good numbers for Switch and great Mario Aces hold.Next week should put switch back over the 50k mark if Octopath is as big as i think it will be

Mario Tennis Aces is holding better than I expected to be honest. How much are we expecting Octopath Traveler to do first week? 150k?



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

So Yokai Watch 4 is slated for Winter in Japan and just got its first screenshot.

How do we expect this to sale? Its the first Yokai Watch for the Switch, but wasn't the audience in Japan starting to get burnout on the franchise?

And that is why they made a Yokai Watch game on the smartphone. It will depend on that of YW4 full potential in the Switch

Bad result for Zanki Zero. Huge blow to Spike, this game has been in development for some time... It's so good though.

Dengeki ranking is up, time for market share data.

Ys8 : PS4 60491 (45%) PSV 63157 (48%) NS 9539 (7%)

DeathMark : PS4 2040 (13%) PSV 12116 (77%) NS 1496 (10%)

Once again, more proof that 3rd parties are struggling on Switch (despite the growing userbase and the shitload of advertisment)

We also have some intel that Shining Resonance has a hard time selling on Switch. On the other hand, Fate Extella Link crosses 150K physical. Not very difficult to see where the market is. Let's hope that publishers notice...

People see what they want to see *shrug*.

Whats funny is that you are againt publishers making more money publishing on more platforms.Go figure your reasons for that.

Want that he won’t say anything next week’s thread if Octo top the chart ? 😂

It did decline alot but the most recent titles still did very well.

I think Yokai Watch 3 did something like 1.5m and Busters 2 (spinoff) did over 500k.

Yokai Watch 4 still has potential to do over 1 million.

Why wouldn't Octopath top next week's chart?

But since it's an exclusive you can't even compare it to the multiplatform 3rd party releases.

You kind of have a moot point here since titles like Ys8 among others are out selling the Ps4 versions in the west.

But ryuzaki's comparison made sense?
