YW1 was never expected to do big numbers. A newer entry just got released and YW1 is the worst entry in the franchise. The porting was unnecessary. A porting of YW3 early on Switch would have done better numbers and bring some audience there.
YW4 is going to sell 350k+ when it's all said and done. Why should they kill the franchise which, by the way, still has some revenues from merchandising?

Bleh, must have misread one of the 5s as a 9.
Think you maybe misinterpreted the numbers;)? Ist over 400k till 10 million.
Edit: Ok, i saw you second post;)
Vouchers hit hard every single Nintendo game released since then. We'll get a better picture of the estimated digital share in two weeks.
If the LTD is 11 million it wouldn't be sail past with ease, the PS4 is still ahead launch aligned and the PS5 won't come until next year, is going to be close but the PS4 still has a very good chance, specially if FF VII is as big as it should be.
The circuit was near Nagoya, central Japan. That area wasn't affected.
Forgive my ignorance but ive never understood why people were so certain that SMM2 will sell more than 1 million and outsell SMM on Wii U. Is that still the case? I know Christmas is coming but there's so much competition with current games (Kart and Minecraft are already outselling it, won't be long before other evergreens do too, like Smash), and it will also have Luigis Mansion 3, Pokemon Sword and shield, and Mario and Sonic at Tokyo Olympics to compete with too.
It was, they cancelled everything on Saturday (Free Practice 3 and Quali) and had to do the quali on Sunday morning instead, there were gust of winds that probably played a part in two drivers crashing early on (Kubica and Magnussen)
Sunday afternoon was completely fine and race was dry.
Nintendo evergreens titles sell that way, every single christmas is the same story.
I always felt that SMM2 was dropping a little harder. Kart and Minecraft crept up on it, next will be Smash. I don't think it'll be long before BotW starts to outsell it.
Wait for the holiday season and then come back, you are welcome. :)
Legs. Especially under holidays.
Look at how much Nintendo evergreens sold last year's Week 51 (one of the biggest week of the year in terms of software sold):

Without knowing the full release schedule for PS4 for the rest of the year.. but Call of Duty and Death Stranding will do it's best to stop that from happening
It'll have a shot next week imo. Then the follwing window will be in December.
The worst one is the week before the Slim launched iirc (which is usual for big price drops)
I wonder what Level 5 will do further on with Yokai Watch. Will they continue even if they expect it sell on the same level as YW4? Snack World isnt too far off from what YW4 will end up selling (most likely), but will we see more from Snack World as well? A ~300k seller can still bring in some money indeed, as mentioned earlier in the the thread.
Quite a small week. But given its circumstance, it's justified I would say.
Oh yeah, I remember that was well. There was an argument this could overcome Pokemon. But here we are.

hopefully it's the first option, i like their style and i think under the right management they can still make good games. bamco would probably be a good fit.
I dont think Level 5 will go bankrupt any time soon at least. I imagine that they've built up a good amount of money from their previous games and merchandize.
When is Sonic / Mario at the Olympics due?
Where is the guy with the release dates divided my month and season when is needed?
Yep, definitely don't want to see Level 5 go completely under. Hopefully Megaton Musashi surprises in a good way. If not, I think Bandai Namco and Level 5 would be a good fit.

November 1st, 2019 in Japan. Right the day after both Luigi's Mansion 3 and Persona 5: The Royale come out.
This may be a long shot as well, but the way the game has captured the 1st place on Amazon.co.jp a with almost no drops from the top makes me think 100,000 for the first week might not be the ceiling after all.
SMM2 will sell 200K+ in December alone. It might outsell SMM on Wii U this year with digital and next year with only retail.
