Hardware: 66.8 mil

Software: 455 mil

Team Evergreen:
MK8DX - 28.2 mil
AC:NH - 25.2 mil
SSBU - 21 mil
BotW - 19.7 mil
Sw/Sh - 18.9 mil
SMO - 18.7 mil
Ring Fit - 5.6 mil


Debuts:
3D All-Stars - 6.4 mil
Paper Mario - 3.1 mil

So I overshot a bit of 3D All-Stars, but other than that the predictions that were off by much were due to being too low.

Hardware went wild and MK8 and AC performed much better than I had expected. Pretty happy with how accurate the rest was.

Lowballed quite a bit except AC:NH, which I expected to do a bit better tbh. Just SM3DA was really on point.

I picked 4-5M, not too far off from 5.21M and the game slightly exceeded my expectation.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

NPD October release is tomorrow morning, 9:00 AM ET.

This was just a tidbit from NPD regarding last quarter (Jul-Sep) that came out this week.  Technically we knew this information already since we received NSW numbers for all three months, they just didn't remark on it until now.  I see that you found the thread!
