3DS outsold PS4 this week.

Wait, really? That is crazy. PS4 launched three years later than 3DS in Japan. It overtook the handheld, but I guess Nintendo consoles after all have better legs than Sony ones, right?

Usually Nintendo consoles fall off a cliff at some point ^^ But 3DS fights like a lion :D

While it's not 100% over yet unless December is massive 2020 will win out. Unfortunately it's not gonna be as close as I wanted it to be and good lord the PS5 stock is abysmal right now. They better send a good amount for December.

Switch accounts for over 95% of all hardware this week, PS5 + PS4 approximately 2.5%.

I am surprised Switch takes another L vs 2020, with the Pokemon and OLED this year vs Age of Calamity.

PS sales also disastrous, Stock probably won't come until late 2021, early 2022.

Overall a down year so far this holiday quarter.

How are you surprised Nintendo already adjusted their numbers down for the year and stated why. It isn't because there is not a demand, it's because of chip shortages. Can't sell what you can't make.

Animal Crossing inching closer to 7 million physically, a holiday bump might get it there by the end of the year.

7 million for physical alone is just a crazy number.  Does anyone know how much AC is up to with digital added in?



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

Master Thread, Game of the Year/Decade

Zelda Will Outsell Mario (Achieved)
How Much Will MH Rise sell?

What do you mean? The chip shortage is just nintendos excuse for the cliff

Has Xbox ever outsold Playstation in Japan?

Because the way Sony is restocking the PS5, the Series X/S might win a week or two lol.
