Great software sales for Switch ! New releases performed well !
Seems like even with medium releases the sales won't really pick up. It's probably close to saturation by now. Still think it will reach or finish close to 4 millions this year which is a really great performance.



Oh a new Momotaro Dentetsu? Probably won't be quite as crazy as the last but might still be a pretty big deal.
Also better than I would have expected for Super Mario RPG honestly.



Try out my free game on Steam

2024 OpenCritic Prediction Leagues:

Nintendo | PlayStation | Multiplat

NS sales surprisingly muted given those successful new releases.

PS5 sales not quite high enough to have made up for the month of atrocious supply yet.



Around the Network

I think Hogwarts Legacy will receive a port for Switch 2 too, because the Switch Version is selling well in Japan (I think in Asia too) and like hot cakes in Europe.

Retail launch weeks for Momotaro Dentetsu World and Super Mario RPG both make the top 20 for Switch

Software numbers are great
But it seems Switch won't be reaching 4M this year.

Selling 450k in 5 weeks during the holiday season doesn't seem that unlikely. 



Switch looking like it will probably only hit like 4.2m at best at this point, or more likely 4.1m.

Dreams of 4.4 or 4.3 are gone at this point. Next week is the first holiday week this year so should see big increases in all systems for rest of the year. Switch needs to average 130k/week for the five holiday weeks to hit 4.2m. Seems doable. Last year it averaged 160k/week for those weeks so 130k/week this year feels about right, though it definitely could come in under that and only do 4.1m, and not having a major holiday game launching in Nov/Dec will hurt hardware sales this holiday so 4.1m is probably the most likely. Nintendo really should have planned one more big game after Mario Wonder to release directly during the holidays. Still, even though it's gonna be lower than it looked like it would be as of a couple months ago, 4.1/4.2m in year 7 in Japan is unbelievable!

Wow Super Mario RPG did amazing! 300k for physical only in Japan opening week for SMRPG! Wow. I don't know what I was expecting but that's probably about double what I would have guessed it would do. Don't know how the interest will be split between Japan and rest of the world, but you gotta figure it did easily over 1 million globally this first week which is quite impressive.
