Nearly all of them are used games though.
Darksiders -Nintendo Edition-Splatoon,botw,mk8d and Odyssey are the four horsemens,everyone dropped except them
still waiting on those Switch ports. any day now
Im really bad with predictions. but my expectation is that labo by week 18 will sell 230.000 min / 260.000 max.So the expectation is for Labo to sell the rest of its initial shipment during GW?
General consensus for Kirby, from anecdotal to many predictions, was that it will reach million seller status again and it will be confirmed. The game shipped 500k in 2 weeks with zero holidays. The only question is if there is a possibility to happen this year.I remember a few people saying Kirby could do 1m, but the general consensus was higher than 600-700k. No one really argued that.
I wrote something about that a few months ago in some thread (data came from different sources, and it took a lot of time to find them). Basically, if you looked at DS and Wii totals versus other platforms you could see that, in relative terms, in UK Nintendo platforms were a bit weaker with respect to other countries, namely France and Spain (I don't remember about Germany, though). I mean, this makes sense: not every country is the same and consumers' preferences vary across territories and also within territories; we are used to consider PAL countries one and all but they are very different from each other. We know, for example, that Nintendo is especially weak in Scandinavia while it is pretty strong in France. DS and Wii were really successful in UK but, in relative terms, they were still less successful (versus competitors) with respect to some other countries. Everything is, again, in relative terms.

By what metric was the UK ever bigger than Japan for dedicated gaming and when? Japan sold almost 80m hardware units in Gen 7?DS is all time best selling system in UK and sold more there than in any other European market. Wii also had its best sales in Europe in UK. Wii and DS were not relatively weak in UK by any means. UK just bough other consoles in addition more than other European markets. Especially with X360. People forget but at the peak of last gen UK was bigger market than Japan for a while for deticated gaming. The boom was huge.

Golden Week made Donkey Kong escape from another Nintendo Friday release. If the blog gives first day sell-through it will finally include a first party title for Switch.
Interesting, I can't find data for 2009 or 2010, but by 2011 the Japanese market for gaming was more than double the size of the UK market.By revenue for some years after the peak of DS in Japan. In west DS/Wii gen peaked later than in Japan (X360 especially having really strong end life) that lead to UK gaming market being bigger than Japan for couple of years. For example2008 UK was bigger market by revenue than Japan.
Coincident with the booming of mobile game. Makes sense.Interesting, I can't find data for 2009 or 2010, but by 2011 the Japanese market for gaming was more than double the size of the UK market.
You could at least aknowledge that I answered your question and that you didn't make that much effort to understand my point before jumping to your gun in the first place ? I don't know, I did put some effort to explain my point to you, didn't I ?
I understand why people are being optimistic about Switch software, like I said, I won't blame them, but let's not pretend it's not the case each time a Switch game sales results are "disappointing".
Of course, but it isn't a pattern of mine, it was just about Labo, not almost every Switch software titles released and I won't try hard to deny it like it's sometime the case here.
For the new Switch owners who want to buy Splatoon 2 the bundle will be the main SKU.

中古 = chuuko = used
新品 = shinpin = new
Learn them then there is no need for confusion.
I don't think asking for a bit of context to posts with only images in japanese is too much to ask but I am not going to insist on this topic.
Thanks for the information.

Yes, a little explanation would be useful. From which store pics were taken, the content and so on.
They always mean it. The All-In-One-Packages contain all content at time of their release. Upcoming releases will have to be bought separately. I'm sure it's the same for other MMORPGs.https://gematsu.com/2018/04/dragon-...kage-version-1-to-4-launches-july-26-in-japan
SE is releasing a Dragon Quest X All In One "we really mean it this time" package for Switch, Wii U, PS4, and PC on July 26th in Japan.
When or where do we know if Mario and Rabbids is a million seller? Same for Fifa 2018 Switch edition.
Mario + Rabbids was close to 2m units sold a while ago. So between 2m-2.5m is my guess.
Fifa is rumoured to be one of the 4 3rd-party million-sellers of the last fiscal year (M+R, Skyrim?, FIFA?, Rocket League ?)
How long ago was it close to 2m? was there a PR?
I doubt M+R is above 1-2 personally yet due to 5 extra months and 1-2 has around 200k extra in Japan.
I'd give it 2m-2.2m
I don't there's a direct source for either of those.When or where do we know if Mario and Rabbids is a million seller? Same for Fifa 2018 Switch edition.
lol read the post above yoursI don't there's a direct source for either of those.
For Mario and Rabbids.... We do have Ubisoft claiming that M+R was the top selling 3rd party game for Switch, last November. We also have Nintendo claiming in their fiscal report that there were 12 million seller last fiscal year, with 9 of them being 1st party. It's not unreasonable to deduce that it sold a million based on that.
For Fifa... Its more speculation than reasoning. There are 2 more unknown 3rd party million sellers and list of candidates is relatively small.

What can I say? I'm a slow writer. They weren't there when I started.
Regarding Wii U ports to Switch, so far the succesful ones (as in, not just subtly outselling the original) have had multiplayer as its selling point, which obviously gels well with the concept of the console. MK8DX was heavily pushed alongside the joycon multiplayer. Pokken DX is also a multiplayer title.
If you notice, they try to push the co-op aspect of DKCTF in some of the marketing, but it's obviously not the game's selling point which is why predictions put it at barely above the original for release. I'd also say that DKCTF's visuals aren't also eye-catching enough for people that didn't know about the game before.
Well MK8DX was released shorty after launch so lower openings were expected I guess.To be fair, both Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Pokken DX opened lower than their Wii U counterparts. Their legs have been exceptional though. Time will tell if the same rings true for DK (I personally think it will have good legs and outsell the original by a good margin).
