Somewhere. I think.
As said in the other thread, bit disappointed Pokémon didn't hit 1.5m at retail. Oh well, still expecting big things for this one.

Really nice Switch sales, especially compared to the 2 bundles released last year. Lite doing well.

Pokémon had a good debut, also considering the higher price tag with respect to previous entries. Also, eShop sales are not included and thanks to vouchers they should be sizable. Of course, performance in the long-run is essential for its success. Sun/Moon opened better but just crawled towards 4m. X/Y didn't go too far either. Let's see if Sword/Shield can bring the franchise back to the 5m milestone in Japan.

Switch hardware sales are pretty good. PS4 is back to sub-10k figures.

Switch sales are down year over year even though Pokémon released. It is time for Nintendo to pack it up, they can't possibly recover from this.

Those legs on Ring Fit Adventure...looks like it's gonna outsell Death Stranding. Who would've thought...

Not too bad for Ring Fit, was expecting worse.

Pretty steep drop for Death Stranding though. It's performing more like an established franchise than a new IP.

Slightly disappointed in Pokémon's launch. Having said that the switch userbase is rapidly growing and the lite looks to bring in more of the Pokémon audience. I think it'll have better legs than event entries.

Good week for switch HW now to see if it can beat last years numbers. I'm thinking we'll see a slight improvement but not a lot. With animal crossing early next year switch should sales should stay really strong.

PS4 with a big drop this week. Needs a Price cut or sales are going to tank leading up to PS5.

Pokémon is tearing it up.
Is the Death Stranding hold good?
Same range than Bloodborne (-84%) ; GT Sport (-90%) ; Uncharted 4 (-84%) ; HZD (-71%) which were TUE/WED releases

Worse than Spider-Man (-45%) ; Days Gone (-70%) ; God of War (-55%) ; Detroit (-53%) which were FRI release too

So no, not a good drop but it had a massive opening though (185k vs Bloodborne's 150k which was Sony highest opening this gen)

I guess that Pokemon will have a digital split with the vouchers similar to Mario Maker (25%), not Fire Emblem (40%). Interesting to see the legs.

I knew that Star Wars was going to do little but not SO little.

As the others and I already said in the other thread, expected but good debut for Pokemon, which should be at roughly 1.8M factoring in the vouchers for a 25% digital ratio.

Death Stranding doesn't look like it will have any legs. RFA is doing as much as it can considering the stock issues.

Its kind of weird to say sales are disappointing week 1 when we have so many unknowns. At the very least we can say it was a decent launch given the percent digital Switch games get. Legs will be fascinating

PS4 instantly back down to 8k.

Pokemon did ok, not amazing, not terrible.
Ring Fit is on recovery time this week. Need to rest those legs a bit.

They really need to replenish that RFA stock. That game will do some great numbers this holiday if it's on shelves.

Global 3-Day Sell-Through PR expected tomorrow from GF/Nintendo? Expecting 6-7M I think. Let's Go was ~3.0M.
