Ugh, I'm so disappointed that series is dead. They make for great launch titles.
I think 50k is more likely, but who knows? Maybe it will sell more than 100k

Hasnt it already done it?
yeah maybe you are right.
Bomberman has had the benefit of being one of a handful of games, once it starts getting crowded with nintendo's own 1st party games, b-tier games like bomberman and Street fighter 2 will struggle to stay in people's minds.
Once the "amazing three" are in stores, Zelda - MK8 - Splatoon 2, nintendo will have the switch audience grabbed by the balls, on lock.
I wish third parties good luck, they are gonna need it
like sonic and disgaea, i think it will be a lot more popular in the west.

I wonder how Bomberman is doing worldwide.
I mean the only guesses we have are chartz(which i think is much lower that what' its actual sales are) and maybe we will get more Konami IPs on the future.

The PS4 didn't feel like a real Playstation to me for the longest time because it didn't have one.

The Nintendo NY store reaction video of the latest direct IIRC had the audience show audible excitement when Disgaea 5 popped up. Sonic got LOTS of excitement also.
That was clearly Ni no Kuni 2.

They honestly weren't excited for all that much except those Smash Amiibos imo, where they went crazy. Sonic had decent cheers, and MHStories got at least 2 people audibly cheering.

It's currently 15th out of the 40 Bomberman titles listed on gamedatalibrary. Best sales since 2005 thus far, but soon will be past that. Next target is 100K, which I think it has a pretty good chance of hitting.

Can you grab the Puyo Puyo Tetris comparison please? I think you were the one who did before.

I think saturn bomberman is the one it has a good shot at beating when all is said and done

Splatoon has 32 preorders are COMG in 2 days and preorders aren't officially open yet....
Saturn Bomberman was also the last good Bomberman, so that seems about appropriate.

Here you go. Not much has changed though. Puyo Puyo Tetris for Switch easily became the second best selling version. I don't think it has much of a shot catching up the 100K of the 3DS version though.

I totally forgot that game existed, oh well. I really want a more mature game from Level 5.
I wouldn't call Skyward Sword any more focused on Japan than BotW.

Because that worked out really well last time.
The fact that I'm still waiting for it to be released in English. :rip:
I'm not sure/don't remember,
but yea if you're comparing TP and SS, sure.
BOTW is more western in terms of a non linear open world.
But artstyle? botw is ghibli esque

PS4/NSW projects should keep the industry healthy right? Vita successor confirmed!!
Unless there's info missing from the twitter line, neither seems to be confirmed. As in, SMT to PS4, and PRE:Fantasy to Switch. It just seems they were all in the same panel.
Re: Fantasy was never confirmed for any platform before this tho?
Oh I thought it started from there, either way though I misread and was looking at this tweet (question) and response:
https://twitter.com/tononet/status/853082029277052929

Seems to me, if that slide is the actual slide of the "announcement" that its "these projects are coming to Switch and PS4" but not specifically where for either, but then I am confused by Deep Strange Journey which is... a 3DS game?

That was fast haha. Although I did get a bit excited there at first, but like everyone else, found it very skeptical considering no content on the slide said anything of the sort. Plus it was a fan panel >_>... oh well.
Until the end of the year everything wil be clear for Switch, and not only in Japan. Range for LTD of hardware and how deep third parties are willing to invest on it. Last direct showed that strong start made already some japanese compamies to be more aggresive with their support.
Yeah Re: Fantasy is not even a real game at this point lol.
botw was heavily inspired by japanese architecture, design and culture, i dont know what are you talking about.
LABI Akihabara sell video games? Don't they only carry PC and other electronic gadgets?

Reading more actually this is pretty interesting. Seems to be an Atlus sponsored panel

I haven't been able to find a copy anywhere in The Netherlands since launch.
Because it is not popular so the store don't stock it ( and especially people can always access it via Nintendo eshop ). Not to be pessimistic, but I doubt it sell that well in the west so it is out of stock.
Going for the double dippers eh...
They really want to grow DQ any way possible in Japan it seems. I'll probably double dip Switch and 3DS.
