I thought Valkyria Chronicles was releasing on Switch alongside PS4?
Anyway, Kirby is great, but Hyrule Warriors and Detective Pikachu not so much. Especially the second, were people expecting this much from a Pokémon game?

Great hold for Kirby and Switch baseline.

Splatoon 2 still having a 50% tie ratio with new Switch sales.

Hyrule Warriors with 25k is really good for a portport! But not my predicted 30k :(

As expected, single digit percentage increases for Switch games after last week's release of Kirby. MK8D even 12%!

14./15. [NSW] 1-2-Switch <ETC> (Nintendo) {2017.03.03} (¥4.980) - 3.878 / 412.323 (-13%)

This means that 1-2-Switch sold 3,422 units last week, so it had a 23% increase! Chris1964

Pretty sure VC4 Switch isn't completed yet but Sega is aiming to have it launch at the same time in America IIRC.

VC4 and NNK2 better than I thought.

Really nice 2nd week for Kirby.

Will Switch make it to 4 million before the end of the quarter (1 week left!)? It needs to sell 47,252 units for that, which I think is very well possible.

Numbers for NnK2, VC4, Detective Pikachu and HW are all better than I expected, so great to see!

Decent sales all around.....

But yeah we should talk about Switch DQ11.... With IGN PR it seems like the game won't hit 2018...

2 year late port of JPRG.... I don't see it doing well...

Great second week for Kirby Star Allies and those numbers look decent for the two big PS4 releases (at least compared to expectations over the past couple of weeks).

Interested in seeing digital sales for VC4. HWDE didn't do too badly considering the price.
No change in HW to no surprise.

Everything did better than I expected, besides Switch HW continuing being meh. I hope Pripara gets some good legs, debut isn't that behind the last 3DS game and this will get better LTD sales probably.

Good week for Switch. Shame about VC4 and Ni No Kuni II, but maybe they will perform well in the west.

DQ11 (which really isn't that demanding as it's turn-based) having an infinite development hell really strongly suggests that Square is never going to be able to/be interested in porting over most of their PS4 games.

I would say DQ11 launching 2-3 years after the PS4 version strongly suggests that KH3 and others will never come to Switch.

Around what i was expecting for VC4 and almost the double from what i was expecting for Ni No Kuni 2.

Lol. NnK did worst than VC4 is such an opposite of whats hyped last week lol.

Kirby still the King and Mario Kart 8DX still stretching its sexy legs.

Kirby continuing to move decent numbers.
Valkyria chronicles 4 posting slightly low opening numbers.
Ninokuni 2 opening good numbers.
Detective pikachu opening to poor numbers, likely due to releasing too late for its market.
Splatoon 2 continuing to show legs.
Hyrule warriors opening to low numbers, expected.

Switch and ps4 seem to be leveling out their sales to their weekly norms.
