Oh lol I thought it was now the norm sort of like how we get numbers on Thur instead of wed so that's why I was confused. Lol
Speaking of Nintendo Switch stock in japan, I found a website that tracks price changes on Amazon.jp: https://keepa.com/#!product/5-B07WXL5YPW
Most likely best price judging on the large drops that coincide with the amazon shipments on tuesday.
That, an FFT collection, even a new game in either series could capitalize on the popularity of SRPGs on Switch, then get ported to other platforms. Lots of relatively easy money being left on the table.
there's a chance but i don't expect anything.
There's a good chance we hear something about PS5 forecast tho.
Wait what, how is it 3 months later already? I still remember the last results
Jesus Christ on a bike this year has totally fucked up my sense of time. Sometimes it feels like days last forever and the other day a week passes by in no time.

If that's the case, then 500k will be very doable given the franchise usual legs and the big months for hardware coming up.
Glad this game is getting a second chance. Pikmin is so good.
At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if Nocturne ends up being the best selling Megami Tensei of 2020.
Zelda Link's Awakening and Three Houses opened to ~140K physical so if Pikmin is getting close to that it's a great sign. Hopefully Nintendo will finally consider Pikmin 4 a "priority" now.
Next steps:
PS1: 18.855.344
PSP: 19.632.197
PS2: 21.234.368
3DS: 24.552.374
NDS: 32.878.490
I see 15.535.192 for GBA

GBA was an utter monster cut short by DS.
In terms of hardware? Yes. Definitely.
In terms of software? Not so much. Software sales on GBA were actually very weak compared to Nintendo's other platforms.
Thanks Celine :)

What? No, software sales were prety strong for the GBA. Its tie ratio was fine and it sold plenty of software. Just look up Celine's charts that Silpheed just posted. Remember that the GBA came out in june 2001 and was replaced in november 2004, it had its legs and life cut short.

Indeed.
Only million sellers in Japan were Pokémon games and Famicom Mini 01. Mario Kart got close.
That would be quite a bit better than what I was expecting. Hope you're right. It's true that the co-op mode might increase its potential audience, and there aren't any huge games releasing this holiday so medium-sized games could benefit.
I wonder how much you had to pay Nintendo just to keep RFA #1 in both countries :P
Seriously though, is there even a release date for those two countries?

Switch is as of June 2020. GBA is one of the worst performing Nintendo platforms when it comes to software since first and third party output was very different back then. Other times 2 decades ago but it never gave serious competition to PS2.

On a per year on the market ratio no it isn't.
GBA was essentially on the market for 40 months and sold almost as much software as the Switch so far. Had the DS came out later and not under pressure from Sony's PSP the tale would be completely different
It won't get lower than this until the end of the year thankfully.
NSW - 13
PS4 - 7
Total 116 (-15)
Yeah but it is the first time since September 16th 2019 that Switch dropped below 100 pts total in a week.
As much as I respect your contributions Chris, DS was announced less than 2 years and 10 months after the GBA launch.
(...which is actually right when GBA was peaking. See below.)
Your graph is deceptive given that it uses FYs. You see, GBA had an absolutely huge launch. It was bigger than anything they had launched in Japan prior to it.
BUT, its first FY contains only 10 days of sales data due to its launch coinciding with the end of Nintendo's FY.
This means that FY year 2 is inflated (looking like a "peak") since in reality the second FY contains most of the GBA's launch window.
If you look at CYs rather than FYs, it looks like this:
2001: 4.2MM <- launch
2002: 3.4MM <- Pokémon
2003: 3.8MM <- (No flagship hits, nothing noteworthy. Mostly remakes. Software drought.)
Then, right at the beginning of CY 2004 (January 20th, to be specific) and during above noted software drought, Nintendo announced their next generation handheld.
GBA's CY 2004 would have been far higher had Nintendo not:
1. Given it a death wish by announcing their next generation handheld;
2. Caused a software drought by migrating every internal development studio (EAD, R&D2, SPD, NST, and IntSys all had launch window DS titles) and almost every would-be-GBA project over to it;
3. Focused its EOY marketing efforts entirely on DS, beginning more than 2 months before its launch (September onwards, feat. Utada Hikaru).
In spite of being hanged, drawn, and quartered, GBA still managed to achieve a respectable 2.4MM unit sales during CY 2004. And that's not to mention the launch of PSP, which DS itself was a response to.
If DS would have had more time in the oven, and GBA would have had more time to reveal its potential, there is no telling where the peak would have been.
Fortunately Nintendo DS was a success, so in hindsight they made a good (albeit terribly risky) decision.

Except there was GBA SP. Software never took off at GBA and there was no reason for it to happen in 2004.
Very interesting (record breaking) Q2 report from Koei-Tecmo:
- Nioh 2 sold over 1m units
- Fairy Tail sold over 310k units
- Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 7 sold over 30k in Asia.
- They have one new IP forecasted to sell over 5mthis FY but they had to delay it. It was supposed to launch next fiscal year but they delayed it to FY2022 (ending March 2023).
Going by their words, it is for more polish + we can expect next-gen versions too.
- Final plan is to have a console game selling around 2-5m copies every fiscal year.

A self-published game selling 5 million? New I.P.? I would expect those numbers from a licensed Nintendo game but do they even report those?
They do report those (we knew FEW sold over 1m thanks to them), but yeah they said it was a new IP.
