Pokémon keeps selling moderately well. 2m should be a lock in Japan, contrarily to previous expectations.

Xenoblade 2 did ok---not bad but not amazing either. Let's see if holiday season can give the title some more legs than usual. WOM should also be strong and might help too.

That's a very weird week.

Good result for Xenoblade 2, good for Kirby, bad for everything else including Switch.

Good debut for Xenoblade Chronicles 2, good result for Switch. Both expected numbers based off of various predictions.

Weird that Switch is down WoW, expected growth every week going forward!

Xenoblade did well, likely ~110k with digital.

Kirby ended on the upper end of expectations. It should clear 100k. Nothing compared to Mass Attack, the last DS Kirby game, which went to sell 400k units.

Was hoping for better on both Xenoblade and Switch stock. Hope it's supply related, I want the series to continue.

Wow, I was expecting a higher week over week for Switch. That's disappointing.

Nice opening for Xenoblade 2. Close to my prediction

97k for XC2 seems like a respectable enough result, should probably crossed 100k with digital.
Switch being low just means there were less shipment.
Let's see what the average shipment it's going to be through out December.

Very strange that Nintendo would ship less for a launch week of a major title than the week before... I guess it's probably best to lower our expectations on what they are able to produce for the holiday season.

I don't know if that's disappointing or not, but i guess I was foolishly expecting way too much from Xenoblade 2.

So best opening for the Xenoblade franchise in both the UK and Japan

Game seems to be doing well for itself

Wow, the optimism for XC2 and Switch failed hard for me.

Great numbers either way... I guess...

Not bad for XC2. I was expecting more but still these are respectable numbers and considering how much digital sales contribute to Nintendo these days, the overall performance must be even higher.

Do we know how much of its shipment was actually sold though?

Much lower number than expected for Switch. I guess the supply side failed here.

Xenoblade 2 is really nothing to write home about. Average sales considering the conditions: better install base than Xenoblade X, a supposedly much more fitting art style, a "return to classic Xenoblade" and a big momentum for Switch. Compared to other games released on Switch it really under delivered.

This means that Xenoblade series are really limited in appeal in Japan and maybe Monolith Soft should really try to "westernise" the game a bit more since it anyhow sells much more in the west. Or try something new (like they will anyhow).

Very good for Xenoblade.

Switch with a drop this week is disappoint, but we still talk about huge numbers.

Regarding Xenoblade 2, it looks like YSO's estimate was way off the mark. I can't help but feel that the limited supply of the Switch itself was one of the contributing factors of hindering the game's sales potential. Still, it is quite an impressive feat as it sold the most in the series.

Just wanted to get this in right away on the first page. The Switch is still supply constrained. I know people are going to ask if the sales decline is because supply has met demand. It has not. And I don't anticipate it will until several weeks into the new year.

It seems more and more likely that PS4 will miss last years total sales. It's only up ~80k YTD vs. 2016 and PS4 averaged sth. like 80 or 90k in those remaining 4 weeks in 2016.


Anecdotal for Switch supply failed this week.

Are you talking about the current week we are in (i.e. week 49) or the week that this Media Create thread is about?
