So when the game came out on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/733790/Not_Tonight/…) and made $350k at launch, we were all ecstatic, but also not entirely surprised. But now Not Tonight is coming to Nintendo Switch this Friday, and in comparison, I just have zero clue whether it's going to sell or not.
This is because on Switch, you're provided with none of the statistics that Steam has: - I don't know if people are looking at our store page - I don't know if people are wishlisting the game I know nothing. And to a person who sells video games, that is incredibly frustrating.
I've done everything I'd usually do to sell a video game: - The announcement trailer (https://twitter.com/RaveofRavendale/status/1217476907295485953…) has had more than 50,000 views - We've sent out tons of review codes - loads more stuff But I have not even a slight clue how the game will do, which is... not great?

The game might come out this Friday and sell amazingly! Or it might come out and sell nothing. So when people say that Valve are greedy for taking 30%, I always think... really? Have you seen the tools they provide? Have you seen the traffic they guarantee to your store page?
