We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
It also looks like SOE will not be lifted on February 5th so the boost should continue well into next month.
Team 2021 is holding strong. Did PS5 fall or rise from last week though?
Yeah as far as leaks, just the Switch and PS5 totals are all we need as they're pretty much the only relevant ones these days. :P
Nice Switch numbers. Those are the numbers I roughly expected for Week 3.
How much would ending the State of emergency affect hardware sales?

This pretty much shows how crazy are Switch numbers in Japan right now.
110k was what we were expecting for Famitsu's week 3. Let's say it had an unexpected extra week of 170k.
Switch needs >102k next week to overtake it.

W1: 250k —— 312k

W9: 75k
W10: 70k
W11: 60k
W12: 85k
W13: 200k >>> MHR
At this point Switch can cumulate enough advantage in terms of hardware sales to nullify Animal Crossing effect during its launch week. Still hard to keep the pace after that but very few were expecting such a performance in Q4. 3D World will help too.
Tbone right now be like
why you got to do me like that 😂
the other squad is shaking right now :P
with shortages starting to happen I wonder if it will beat it align on the week before SM3DW (W6) or just in W7
Naaaah, I've always thought about 21 > 20 starting from April
but wasn't expecting THESE numbers anyway :o
haha
The reality of Switch sales
HAHAHAHA that's a good one!
The reality of Switch sales
change it to team2020/team2021 and switch out 2022 with reality 😀
111k is a very impressive performance for sure. Hoping the stock issues for next week won't be awful, considering what Chris said. But the special Mario edition would probably make up for the stock deficiencies (that is, they would have shipped more in other weeks if they hadn't saved up for the special edition). I think it will be fine.
Is the Mario bundle gonna hit the market the same week of Bowser's Fury?
I think making FF6 an action RPG is covered in the Geneva Convention.
Looking good for Team21, the Road to MHR will be interesting.
In the end its the summary of many factors.
Probably, maybe, unlikely
I know, let me dream of MHR 3mil opening dammit 😆
I said that in the week 53 2020 thread, post #83, about when the Switch surpasses the 3ds launch aligned.
Looks like I was right after all.
The Japan Studio already produced a handful of AAA games.
I could name a dozen or two Japanese AAA releases, unless you're that type of guy who thinks Nintendo never published a single AAA title until Breath of the Wild, and has not published one since (with the possible exception of Smash Ultimate).
Found a perfect gif for you but awaiting till Chris post the next thread
I consider AAA games of games with a budget around 100 million or something in that ballpark. The term AAA is not really clearly defined and anyone can have their own definition of it but if you compare a Japanese game to something like Cyberpunk or even the Witcher 3 or GTA, COD or Skyrim or whatever, you can clearly see that there are almost none in the market. I mean FF comes close these days, and MGSV is obviously a big production too and yeah Zelda and Smash Ultimate too. Hell even AC has incredible production values but there just aren't that many and certainly not a dozen or two.
