Disappointing numbers for all the new releases. PS4 hardware collapsing fast too.

Switch is off to a strong start and should have a stronger than usual Q1 with Animal Crossing. Will be fun to watch if this ends up being it's peak year or not.

I don't think any console has had a peak 5th year, so 4th should be peak

brazil, unfortunately
Switch 2020 already 187k ahead of 2019. Considering Q4 (FY) last year were very weak, I think it can hold this difference and with AC release date approaching, at least during this first quarter of the year, Switch 2020 will be ahead of Switch 2019.

Strong Switch hardware once more, and Switch Lite seems to hold at 1/3 of total hardware sales for weeks after the holiday period so far.

Yakuza is disappointing with another sizable decline from the last mainline entry. Kakarot has a strong performance compared to DBFZ, however! PS4 hardware remains unfazed by the release of new software.

It seems the anecdotal for Ring Fit restocks on Amazon resulted in a decent bump week on week, nice to see! Slowly legging its way to 1M and beyond!

Another big week for the switch. Already we'll over 100K ahead of last year and we still have animal Crossing to come this quarter. Ring fit finally getting stock and Pokémon still selling well.

PS4 is struggling but unless there is a price cut I can't see it doing a whole lot except for around big releases (mainly FFVII really).

I think it will. It's having such a strong start to he year already. After animal crossing it'll be way ahead of last year. There are a few wildcards though. A new pro revision or a price cut could really spur on sales to end the year as well.

The big question mark is what their SW lineup will look like.

What? Switch 2019 Q4 wasn't weak at all... I don't mean to offend, but it seems like you're always reading some parallel-world version of these threads.

Anyway, amazing week 3 Switch and RingFit sales.

I think Yakuza did fine considering the radical change to format.

Switch still doing excellent as it's coming up on year 4.

Lol TMS.

year 4? It's going to turn 3 years in 2 months?

Also very good numbers for Switch, any reason why it's selling so good other than Pokemon?

yikes at PS4, though it was going to do better with Yakuza and dragon balls

Wow Switch numbers. This is really strong.

LM3 out of Top 10, this is very hard drop if you consider how great the game performed during december. Brain Age and Ringfit Adventure with impressive legs.

LM3 dropped hard last week as well. The game has sold mediocre in Japan starting release. People bought it massively during the holidays and now it's back to how it was before.

Sad about TMS, played it on my Wii U and it's a genuinely good game, even if it isn't the FE x SMT crossover people were expecting.

Decent result for Yakuza, hopefully word of mouth can help it stay in these rankings for a few more weeks.

yeah but it is nevertheless weird. Because this game has very good mouth over mouth receiption, so it should perform better in january as well I guess.

Hmm... Switch could pass Wii (12.75 Million) by AC's release in week 12, kind of crazy.

There's no reason to not expect a lower digital ratio for this title than for other similarly priced voucher game.

Probably around 30% as well.
It's a WiiU port of a game that did barely better numbers on that platform. There's a large selection of popular games available for vouchers, and games like Animal Crossing and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon coming up. Nintendo had to make a public apology about the version used in Japan for this port, and allow digital refunds because of that.
Why would people use a voucher on this?

This doesn't have an impact on real world consumer habits.
