Astro Bot definitely becoming a PlayStation 5 evergreen. Heck, with those drops, this can have the legs of a Nintendo Switch evergreen.

Good thing the PS5 has Wilds in a few months cause things look dire right now. Though with that being on PC day one this time its impact could easily be less than Worlds. Also the Switch's next week should be quite nice though after that the following few shouldn't be anything special.

There is no PS5 software selling in Japan. Sony probably did the calculations for how many games are being sold on PS5 and decided it was not recovering the loses on Hardware side

Switch on his way to be 1M ahead of DS' sales. And to think that we were expecting it to outsell the DS less than 6 months ago

I wonder how many units the PS5 pro will sell in Japan at least in it's first few months.

Well Astro Bot is basically like a Nintendo game with a different coat of paint, so that makes sense

I can't imagine it going over well in Japan with that price.  I'd be surprised if even its launch week is above Switch with Echoes and the Zelda-Lite having just released.- EDIT:  Oops, just realized the Pro launches on Nov 7th... same day as Mario & Luigi Brothership.  Maybe with the 30th anniversary editions things may pick up for a week or two but those high price-tags + no big games until Monster Hunter...

And the thing about Wilds is, while it's definitely coming to the PS5 first since Switch 2 won't be out by then, I think that the reveal trailer for Switch 2 will be.  And it's there (or around that time anyway) that I think we'll see that MHW is coming to Nintendo's new system.  Just my prediction but that would significantly stunt the sales of what the PS5 version would sell otherwise.

I think these weekly ~10k baselines for the PS5 will be pretty common next year.

Astro’s got some legs…hoping it can carry this momentum, though I don’t see it passing 100k in Japan.

PS5 dead in the water.
