Sorry I promise you to respond sooner, when the next buggy game manage to sell well.

It's doing exceptionally well, but with how Switch software is performing I can see Smash taking it.So does my wild prediction that GoW would be the highest selling exclusive in 2018 still have a chance?
Smash and Pokémon coming up tho...
Everyone continues to do great....what a time to be alive.
Switch software sales being on Wii level without digital is quite impressive as well. Not bad.
I guess that's a reason why Sony is planning downloads for PSNow - they see that it works for MS and want to copy that somehow with PSNow.We had Phil Spencer and the guy from rare say that last week. And well Mat said it before but people didn't believe him ...
"Switch Software sees strong growth: Nintendo Switch software sales in May generated growth of 90 percent when compared to a year ago, delivering the highest software revenues for any Nintendo platform in May since the Nintendo Wii in May 2011. Please note that The NPD Group does not currently track digital sales on Nintendo platforms."
This is crazy.
Well done to the developers of State of Decay 2!
Except Dark Souls. It died.
But how? I mean, really. How? I just don't get it. I would expect gamepass to make people just use gamepass and not buy the game, instead it's helping sales?
That's what I thought I but wanted to confirm. Crazy that it didn't even make top 20 so soon after launch. Yikes.It's below Splatoon and Kirby in the Switch chart, and those didn't chart either, so yeah, looks like it's bye bye Labo.
The same situation appears again as another MS exclusive SOT also disappeared in Magicpork's leak before...
So why only and always MS exclusive? what Magicpork got was wrong or incomplete?
But this would mean quite a huge number of gamepass subscriptions which on the other hand would mean that people can get the game for free which means less physical sales... And to imagine that it was able to do it for $30 is even more confusing to me.
Couldn't agree more!And people on here keep debating against me the sales of future video games. The industry is incredibly strong and you should expect games to keep breaking records and records within their own series across the board. This is the best time to BRING BACK old IP's. Now is your chance to resurrect them.
Amazing.Updated OP with the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rsOnFVCaS8&feature=youtu.be
One interesting note is that State of Decay 2 was only $30 but still managed to top the chart which is ranked by dollar sales. So very impressive considering every other game in that list retails for around $60.

He said both sea of third and state of decay sold well because gamepass acts as a natural marketing tool. You see a friend playing a game and you check it out for $10 and you like it or your friend played it on Gamepass raves about it and then you buy it. More people playing something gets people to buyPhil Spencer said as much. They have internal data that shows Game Pass somehow helps sales overall. Can't remember exactly what he stated, but it was something along those lines. Of course plenty of arm chair analysts think they no more than him and their business model, but here we are.

Detroit already exceeded QD's previous best seller, Heavy Rain. Do you think this will continue with the legs Detroit has, meaning do you think it can keep ahead Heavy Rain in long term sales also?
MatPiscatella Your thoughts on GoW legs and its impact as a system seller?
Being the number 2 game for 2018 sales at this point is pretty impressive although we haven't had too many heavy hitters six months in.
Does this imply the NPD group tracks digital sales on Playstation and Xbox?
Still the best may for a Nintendo Plattform in 7 years. Wii sales might have been down but it still had quite the installed base. Switch already reaching Wii levels software wise is good to see....especially since they improved their digital performance by a lot as well.Well to be fair Wii was already in its twilight years in 2011 (software sales were massively down yoy).
