Around the Network

Switch -48% YoY, PS5 +58% YoY, XBS +18% YoY.



 

 

 

 

 





the ps5 has to sell more than 50 thousand units per week in the next 4 weeks to end the year with 5 million lifetime units. It seems possible to me

Whilst possible I think it will just fall short, whilst Switch will just sell a bit more than 4 million this year



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Around the Network

2019 has pulled ahead and there's no turning back. 2023 held off for quite a long time but it seems the holiday boost is just not happening for Switch this year.



Signature goes here!

Rough for the Switch, I think they made a mistake not releasing the "free game" bundles in Japan even if it seemed unecessary at the time. This holiday was always gonna be down a bunch but I think they could definitely have avoided it being flat with the rest of the year (could still be better the next 3 weeks ofc, but not enough to make up for this start).

2025 OpenCritic Prediction Leagues

The 16th biggest retail launch week for Dragon Quest Monsters.



There should be 100k+ weeks in the remaining four but it is clear that Switch is reaching saturation at this point. Also just a few weeks left of the 3DS being tracked.



Assuming a third of Wonder's sales are digital it should end the year around 2.25 million, a fall of 25% from the NSMB Wii game despite Wonder releasing a month earlier. Even if that were 50% digital it would have just matched it despite the Switch having three times the userbase.

That's a huge attach rate drop and it might be indicative that 2D Mario will be one of the few Nintendo franchises to see a decline this gen compared to previous highs.
