Next week's investors report will be an interesting one it effectively means the number of NS'shipped at the end of June is all sold given how insane demand is, scalpers are actually reemerging in all regions to cash in and this is 3 and a half years in at this point.

Also New Horizons is now the best selling game of the franchise at retail in Japan.

Wild Worlds LTD was 5.241.655

Which also makes New Horizons the 8th best-selling game of all time.
Next game ahead is Ruby/Sapphire at 5.337.045 LTD

I think New Leaf is the best selling Animal Crossing at retail in japan with 5'790'000 units ranking as the 6th best selling game of all time.

Hmm Gamedatalibrary has New Leaf at 5.067 million units at retail. Numbers not matching up at all with GDL to be honest.

My jaw literally fell open when I saw the Animal Crossing and Switch sales.

Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !

Gamedatalibary doesn't include digital sales, I'm guessing GDL took this figure from Nintendo's official numbers which include digital.

Due to shortages Animal Crossing New Leaf actually did extremely well digitally for a 3DS game during its launch.

I dont know how strong the demand is to be recovered. Like how many 100k weeks will it take lmao.

Demand must be so high seeing AC NH is close to become the best selling game of all time in japan in a matter of months. With digital it is definitely passed 6 millions I'm sure.

Good performance of GoT and PM. PS4 hardware is truly dying, and PS3 will end up on top. Even if the PS4 was huge WW and had no competition, it will still remain lower than the PS3 in japan. That's kinda scary for Sony imo.

Switch could impact PS5 sales in japan, I personally think it def will.

With digital it is, maybe, passed 7 million.
