Impressive Switch hw sales momentum even without new releases.
Will be interesting to see how things will look post the Direct.

Those Arc of Alchemist numbers seem bad even by Compile Heart standards(?)

I see that famitsu is changing their method of releasing numbers now... hopefully it's back at constant timing again instead randomly update when they wanted to.
also they're drunk as well lol

KH and RE are dropping faster than I was expecting.

Switch software keeps selling forever. Very smart on Nintendo's side to release NSMB in January.

Great hold for the Switch. Direct will keep its momentum especially if the big games arrive on those timely holidays.

They gave a second breath to Pokemon, it is amazing.

After the return of the bundles and the Meltan GO event, we'll see what kind of effect the demo and after that the Gen 8 + Detective Pikachu hype cycle will have !

Switch HW holding steady at +45% YoY. MC Q1 2019 has already matched Q1 2018.

SMP passes 1 million.

BOTW above Splatoon 2 for the first time in the weeklies. Approaching its 2 year anniversary.

SMO returns to top 20.

Great holds for Smash/SSBUD.

PUBG!

Huge drop for KH3... no milion in sight?

Switch hardware I think is pretty good. What was it before all the holidays, 35k/week? So pretty much doubled. I wonder how they can sell that many per week with no big releases.

Super Mario Odyssey made quite a comeback. Could we see it reach 2 million physical before the end of Nintendo's 3rd fiscal year?

Going to be a rough year for hardware sales if the current trends continue, and every system that isn't Switch is down over 50% from last year.

Assuming Switch gets a new model or price cut this year, it shouldn't have any trouble beating last years sales, but will it be the only system to do so? I guess that's the benefit of being the only relatively new system on the market.

Nice to see Switch hw over 60k, doubt it'll maintain it next week.

KH is dropping like a rock.

SMT over 1m at retail!

And that Zelda, it's just incredible.

PS4 games dropping pretty fast it seems, while Switch games are showing pretty good legs.
I hope PS4 will get a permanent price drop soon.

All other systems are +5 years olds...dont know what kind of sales numbers you are expecting from them.

Given the Switch's projected 2019 lineup (potential 3P + AC + Gen8) plus predictions of price-cut and/or handheld revision, the YoY gain later in the year should trend even higher than the current +45%, no? Mainline Pokemon and AC are like the two largest properties in the Japan market, no?
