the sleeper hit no one saw pulling 14 million, Clubhouse Games

We've reached the point where NS2 is starting to repeatedly take more top 30 spots than NS1, now that its library has grown.

Monster Hunter Stories 3 selling more than twice as much on Switch 2 than PS5 is also notable; makes sense as the first two games were on Nintendo's platforms.

Honestly, the 200cc for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe isn't really good as most of the courses weren't designed for 200cc. 150cc is more fun and most players, even avid Mario Kart players, prefer 150cc. However, I can see that 200cc works better in Mario Kart World as most of the courses have much more space than in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

I think the main reason I love 200cc mode is precisely for the reason that most courses weren’t designed with it in mind. It’s a thrill mastering all the turns and shortcuts against the ghost/CPU racers!

The enthusiast gaming audience is often taken by surprise when games that aren't their personal cup of tea take off; this happened a number of times on Switch, also with Ring Fit Adventure and Switch Sports, then most recently with Pokopia.

A lot of people don't realize that there's a huge audience out there who don't need blockbuster spectacle and are more than happy with more casual fare.

Are we sure the 14 million for Clubhouse Games is not a typo?

I mean it's more than double of Animal Crossing.

On a population of 180m in Japan, 14 million is insane for Japan only.

It's published by Nintendo, but does not appear on the top10 list of worldwide Switch games by Nintendo, which I think it should if it does 14m in Japan alone.

Its definitely a typo, this is not a number lol
"14,85,845" 

Likely meant to be 
1m400k
"1,485,845 "

Yeah it should have been 1.4m; Nintendoeverything nearly always have some kind of mistake or typo in their top 30 list.

Still, 1.4m in one country is a damn strong result for a modest little minigame collection.

Yeah i was joking, its just a punctuation error
