Really nice to see Xenoblade selling so well, 1.42 million is really good for the kind of game it is. Wow at Tropical Freeze Switch being so close to outselling the Wii U version after only 2 months, I know the numbers are just shipments  but still.

The only official shipments we ever got for the Wii U version were 1.12m at the end of 2014 (~10 months) so the Switch version has done 300k more in 1/5 the time while being $10 more.

Im looking forward to seeing if Captain Toad can pass 1 million by the end of Sept.

Oh, I used the Vgchartz number of 1.7 million as reference, I wonder how accurate it is.

ps4 seems to be having shortages though with the pro model, and even the slim, it could very will be over tracked, but it's not like we have any region data like we do with nintendo.

Well.... yeah.2019 could be great, even spetacular again.You would have Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4, Animal Crossing, something Mario related(like a 2D game), way more third party support than this Switch got this far, and so on.And why is that?Because Nintendo took a "break" this year.My whole argument was around 2018, not latter years.With this year being so light on big releases on Nintendo part, I certainly expect a bigger year next year.

I never said there was a 2+ million rule, but ps4 does usually have 2+ million on store shelves. 500k is only if the system is suffering shortages. ps4 has been in the the 1.8-3 million range anytime we got data except for the first year where is did have supply issues.

It depends on when we're talking about I suppose.

It wasn't until the Switch was revealed that people began to get optimistic, and even then it was tempered by a rather mixed reception from critics. I certainly don't recall anyone thinking they'd be crossing the 20 million mark a year and a half in with only one holiday season.
