Not too surprising considering the sales of Wonderboy, but neat to see considering the user base size. I'll definitely be picking up the physical version this summer.

Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom: Switch preorders 10 times higher than PS4

Hopefully the sales are good on both platforms (is this not on Xbox?). I think I'm going to go digital with this one though.
If I had a Switch, I'd probably choose it over other platforms for this title and most other 2D games in particular. Just fits so well with the portable nature of the machine.
It just makes sense for titles like this. The performance is obviously gonna be the same, and you're simultaneously getting a portable+home version on the Switch.
The portability alone is a big upgrade, but the fact that you don't even lose the potential home version?
It's essentially just a better deal altogether.

Completely OT... who IS that?
Sorry, just the comment mixed with your pic makes me laugh
The guy from the movie Loser with Jason Biggs, as well as a ton of more famous stuff.
Jimmi Simpson.
Jimmiy's role as Lyle the Intern on Letterman is legend before the McPoyle.
Like 60 million WW in PS4's favor at this point I'd imagine.
15 to 75 or so
Its shatters my heart every time some says that. And they say it a lot.
T_T
Its the guy from house of cards, westworld,black mirror but mostly he's from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia .
He comes from the illustrious and pure bloodline of the McPoyles, a clan that once ruled the greater parts of america, one that eventually mostly ended due to inbreeding and std's.
If youre curious about the eye, ...why are you? it looks perfectly natural. Unless you wanna gift him an eye?
On an unrelated note, it was popped out by a bird at a marriage ceremony where everyone turned into zombies because someone mixed illegal experimental drugs in the lukewarm milk that everyone obviously drinks at marriages, the marriage was of his brother who was about to break family tradition by marrying a cat woman and spread the mcpoyle bloodline all over the world.
Dang, that makes this that much more impressive...
Something like 50 to 1 favoring Switch if you equalize the install bases.
I know him better for his forgettable roles in movies nobody has seen like Loser and Stay Alive.
What very long drawn out way to say, "Perfect for the Switch."
tbf its important to differentiate these days since its now a meme used for basically everything , from port begging to trolling .
I'll always remember that role first haha. Man he's come so far. Always cool to see that.
This, lol.
I either forgot or didn't realize this was also coming soon despite already getting and loving Wonder Boy last month when the disc release finally came out for PS4.
Such a gorgeous game.
Matching the install-bases, that could potentially be true.
People just really appreciate the home+portable aspect. It's good value generally.
I'd love to have more physical games, but when they cost $800 pesos ($40 dollars) instead of $400 digitally ($20) it's literally impossible to want to buy the cartridge version, no matter how much toys they put inside :(
This seems like the natural conclusion after the previous Monster Boy game was out within the first month of launch. I find it a bit funny that it's a totally different company who's reaping the rewards of that, though.
You're right, they totally do. Personally, my Switch rarely comes out of the dock. But numerous times I've heard friends say if given the choice they'd want to play "so and so" on the Switch.
Given what the game is competiting against on the PS4 on top of the F2P games and PS+, I cannot say I'm surprised that people aren't jumping on the game on the PS4. People assume that a great install base automatically means better sales - it doesn't when the library is massive.
Maybe off topic but few days ago i had some cash in wallet and wanted some indie or cheaper game to buy on psn. Spent 30 minutes browsing and watching reviews.....and havent bought anything, too much choice. Saved cash for some bigger titles in the next few months lol. (already have huge backlog)
Bought it on Xbox, played for about 30mins, thought it was bad and stopped playing.
Remembered I could get a refund on Xbox, so I got that refund.

This is honestly not that impressive. Switch is mostly bought by gaming dads who have lost track of what is happening in the world and long back to the warm feelings of their youth when the world made sense. Once all 20 million gaming dads bought this game, sales will definitely fall off a cliff.
