No Vita because no Vita title in Top 20 in its second week. Also, can't find 3DS sales for Famitsu, so I can't make the comparison for Famitsu as well :p

Anecdotal, but I was in Japan last week and went to literally about two dozen game stores in Osaka and Tokyo looking for I Am Setsuna. It was sold out everywhere, as was the Switch itself. Most stores had 1-2 Switch and Zelda.

Doing a direct comparison.

Switch and Vita had the same launch numbers for the first two weeks... better than Wii and PS4... way worst than 3DS.

Let's see next week but it is a pretty good launch.

Not the same shipments though, that's a major difference.
 
I think this ultimately shows how incompetent Nintendo are at launches. Shipping 2 million in the first month globally when recent hardware launches had PS4 sell 4 million+ in one holiday month whilst still being supply constrained and XB1 selling 1 million day 1 globally.

They could even look at their own launches. WiiU had an initial shipment of 3.5+ million in holidays iirc. 3DS sold 3.61 million in its first month.

I guess we'll only find about the SW's success once it stops being so supply constrained.

This line doesn't help your point.

Neither does the 3DS one, at least for the West

US first weekend (launch on March 27th, 2011) - 400,000
Americas first shipment - 1,320,000

Europe first weekend (launch on March 25th, 2011) - 303,000
Others first shipment - 1,230,000
 
To be fair, Christmas versus March.

Wii U dropped off a cliff in January.

Mainly because nothing was out after launch until March (at least in NA).

The games that came out in March were LEGO City Undercover, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and NFS: Most Wanted U, all around the same time too.

Then we got nothing until Luigi U and Pikmin 3 started the whole a game a month thing for the later half of 2013.

It was a graveyard at points... Doubt it was better in Japan by much... I know Pikmin 3 gave it a boost at the time of release.
 
When is the Switch getting a big RPG?

I only one I can think of is Xenoblade Chronicles 2, but Xenoblade has never been an outstanding seller. There's also Dragon Quest XI, but that is releasing on 3DS and PS4 as well. Skyrim too. Dragon Quest X release as well.

The only other things are SMT Project and Project Octopath Traveler, but those are not in the near future at all it seems.

SRPGs has Disgaea 5 Complete already in Japan and Fire Emblem next year.

one of the more interesting things to me will be to see how Zelda keeps selling each week in relation to how many new switches are sold and what the attach rates are at on a week by week basis.

Whoa this thread was a chore to read this time. Ick.

Looks like Puyo Puyo Tetris S has already outsold the LTD of Puyo Puyo Tetris on Wii U (8K) and Vita (14K) with its 17929 on Famitsu. Next up PS3 version at 24K. (It probably won't catch the 3DS version at 100K, the only version that really sold anything).

Nice going for Nier Automata.

It's almost because the low shipment for those games, not really because they are quite popular. Yamada Denki in Ikebukuro had no Zelda last weekend.

Nintendo's biggest US launch + biggest EU launch + Doing in line with every other recent system in Japan = Nintendo is incompetent.

Launch numbers are almost always constrained by the amount shipped, so it's hard to predict whether it's going to be a flop or not (I think it'll be fine for now). Nintendo didn't want to over produce either (judging by their last two launches). My guess, they will supply 50k a week and maybe bump it up a bit when a big game releases.

Biggest ever first week for an Ubisoft game, even bigger than the Nintendo published Just Dance.

Tom Clancy has proven to be very popular on PS4, Seige and The Division are their 2nd and 3rd all time best selling games in Japan, with Seige taking the top spot very soon.

Also I think Famitsu has FFXV (3203) outselling Resident Evil 7(2786) this week o_O. That's pretty sad on RE7's part...

Among the worst ever 2nd week drops.

Well, that's quite the thread :p

2nd week comparisons

...

No Vita because no Vita title in Top 20 in its second week. Also, can't find 3DS sales for Famitsu, so I can't make the comparison for Famitsu as well :p

Thanks for those numbers!

Among the worst ever 2nd week drops.

If you know why then bla bla bla, but still.
Where you got your numbers? Second week for PS4 is 65k (79% drop)... Wii U is 127k... 3DS and Vita are exactly what I have for MC data... maybe you are using Famitsu for PS4/WiiU/Switch???

Launch numbers are almost always constrained by the amount shipped, so it's hard to predict whether it's going to be a flop or not (I think it'll be fine for now). Nintendo didn't want to over produce either (judging by their last two launches). My guess, they will supply 50k a week and maybe bump it up a bit when a big game releases.

Launch numbers are almost never constrained by the amount shipped except for special cases.

2nd week sales drop sounds like a useless data if supply constrained.

PS4 supply constrained = PS4 bomba
Pretty much why I won't bother discussing whether Switch is doing fine or not for the time being. It'll be interesting to see numbers a couple of months from now and then during the Holidays.

Looks like handhelds tend to have lower drops compared to consoles (With Vita and Switch being anomaly)

Just realised that Disgaea 5 disappeared from the charts, so less than 2.5k for week 2. NIS better not be too disappointed.

PS4 wasn't supply constrained at all during its Japanese launch.

PS4:
Week #1: 322.083
Week #2: 52.697
Week #3: 30.766
Week #4: 28.864
Week #5: 24.138
Week #6: 15.036
Week #7: 12.053
Week #8: 10.129

Launch numbers are almost never constrained by the amount shipped except for special cases.

PSP, PS3, and Wii?

Now that Yoshi 3DS outsold Yoshi Wii U, next battle is MK8 Switch vs. MK8 Wii U.

That may take a while.
