So PS4 gonna be that sub20k life except for holidays and KH3/RE2 week this year ?
Good hold on Switch HW, already up 100k over last year, which is significant since last Q1 MC had Switch at 684k as of april 1.
NSMBU debuted good, but the real sales for that are gonna come from legs right ?
Tales of did ok? They got the PS3 version, so its less new for them than for the west.
Wonder when the Switch SKu will outlegg ps4.

You can't expect holidays numbers for the rest of the year.... So... the Switch hold is pretty good actually.
NSMBU launched higher than expected. Great numbers for that one. The rest is pretty much as expected, Switch drop is fine while PS4's drop is predictably super harsh.
As I said in other threads, the decline for the PS4 this year will be important ( like 35 to 40% ) ! However, It will still reach 125 to 127 million lifetime nevertheless. So 2nd best selling home console ever.
Switch started out 50% higher YTD, and will probably maintain that difference for a good while, if not all year. Probably higher once Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem are out by Summer, and good lord when Pokemon and DQXI hit it. We might get the first 6mil year in Japan since 2012 3DS.

Did the 3ds even hit 6M in 2012? I remember it being 5.5M, correct me if I'm wrong.
Actually, if we use Dengeki sales as reference, it probably saw a WOW drop, sales-wise. However, it should be much smaller than most of the other games.
Still, its sales trajectory is very interesting and incredibly unusual (Media Create)
First week - outside of Top 50
Second week - 35th
Third week - 25th
Fourth week - 20th
It'll be interesting to see how long it might keep on selling
These Wii U ports must be so lucrative for Nintendo. I suspect everything that didn't use the wiipad extensively will get one.
I didn't expect holiday numbers to be kept I simply acknowledged the huge drops all round. I'm not the first or the only one to do that so I'm not sure why you singled out my post.
I knew it would happen but I hoped it wouldn't.
The Switch hold is far more impressive and portends a healthy quarter. The PS4 drop, though predictable, is not good.
We are just pointing out that the Switch didn't actually have a huge drop, contextually.
that aint lasting more than this week fam
last year's week 1 didn't have the big price cut that this week 1 had.
Dengeki had the game at 4,718 / 9,296 in Week 1. So yeah, it might have dropped but still impressive.
Thank you for your answer. Will be interesting if it can beat NSMB2 in the long run.
I know it won't fam.
Look at the post I was replying to. I was highlighting that first 2 weeks are pretty much the same as last year.
He mr
He means week 1 + week 2 2018 vs. 2019. It's a temporary respite, though,since MHW will put 2018 well ahead of 2019 in January and February (and probably beyond).
That won't last with the MHW bump coming for the PS4 at the end of last January. KH3 and RE2 should stem it a bit, but it will be down significantly. That is also partially from having a really good price deal/bundle end in Week 1, 2019 that wasn't there the previous year.
Ah, it wasn't? My bad then, in my head supplies were an issue 'till early 2018.
Much better numbers for NSMBU than I expected. Every week these numbers are put out I want to know digital so badly. I bought the game digitally, its just one of those titles I'd want on my system but don't want to have to swap cards for so it makes me wonder how many people think the same way. HW drops weren't too bad either.
Actually it did slightly better than the Wii U version in the slowest week of the year.
PS4 is also just old and a decline is just going to happen regardless especially at its current price.
They were probably hoping it could hit 25m which would be a sweet milestone.
Yep.
I think we're seeing a 2 year old hot new portable platform vs a 6 year old stationary in action here.
Not really surprising though!
This week was probably boosted a bit by NSMBUDX, so the baseline will likely go down. I think 66k is not impossible as a weekly average, but I don't think we can say anything definitive about it just yet.
