Yes.
Old news then. ;)

Edit: Forgot about Super Famicom. It was at 49.65 M after 9 quarters. Switch at 20.3 M after 7 quarters.

And Nintendo hasn't announced anything yet. I know people are expecting Fire Emblem, but I don't see it releasing before May. Even if it does, doesn't change much. Golden Week calls for something bigger, that appeals to a wider audience than FE. Animal Crossing would fit the bill, but I highly doubt this one is even a H1 2019 release.
Nintendo Direct is coming, we'll know if they have anything for GW at all pretty soon.
Fire Emblem is a big game. Fates did 350k+ FW. Sure, it doesn't rely on an heterogenous audience but it's still a big franchise.
Last year, Nintendo had Donkey Kong which did below 100k FW. In 2016, Nintendo released Kirby: Planet Robobot, 153k FW.
I think Switch has many games a wider audience can choose from during Golden Week, especially considering the launch of New Super Mario Bros. and Yoshi.
I bought shares in resmed a while back, never knew that was them, neat.
This feels like a very weird take. Partly because we're talking days before May which in itself is a very arbitrary time limitation. Then that FE somehow isn't big enough, when we've had smaller releases as late as last year in a Donkey Kong port and Fire Emblem itself has released in a similair time period in the past.
Looks like Youkai Watch x Fortnite
Nice timing. Although it's a late port, it's still a good get for the Switch. Third-party support really is ramping up.
I'd be careful about that one. It wouldn't surprise me if they go for that World Seeker/Jump Force level visuals with UE4 filled with modern effects... And those don't really come to Switch for now. I'm not 100% sure it's coming.
Already released and left the charts.
It's at the 45th spot for PS4 SKU if you look at the op, opened at something 25k PS4 10k Switch and will end up below 100k combined LTD
It's really a low effort remaster of a 15y old single player game whose IP has been dormant for more than a decade, so not much more was expected.
Maybe they are including digital-only sales as well?
It already released in December.
Oh. That sucks.
RE2 should do much better, probably better than 7.
March 29th, like the rest of the world. Nintendo Labo has been the only non-simultaneous release on Switch so far.
I fail to see how that "take" is weird. When I say "Golden Week", I mean released in time for it, not just the week itself. This year's GW is going to be something else, there's literally a fully week of non-stop public holidays.
And I didn't say that FE wasn't "big enough". I wrote that Nintendo needed "something bigger, that appeals to a wider audience". I'm thinking of something along the lines of Tomodachi Life or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Basically, the Super Mario Party of Golden Week 2019, if you want (+1m LTD). Of course, it's possible Nintendo will just decide that their current line-up is enough and GW doesn't need an additional game.
And that's not the reason I'm not expecting FE in April, just a gut feeling i've already mentioned quite a few times in this very thread.
I'm hoping they'll launch labo 4 for golden week. Make it a variety kit style kit, with more interaction and themeing, I think it could still do well.

Switch more than 100% up compared to same week last year. NSMB more than 150k, pretty nice after all.
Sub 20k for PS4
Sub 20k for PS4
I had hope the new baseline would be a bit better than that. KHIII will bring it up again but I am guessing most of the people who are buying a PS4 for that game have a system by now.
The promotion seems to basically only push forward and frontload PS4 sales.
