Zelda clearly doesn't have the same appeal in Japan, I'm concern that this can affect Switch sales in the coming weeks.
When Mario Kart 8 DLX will be launched?
Disgaea 5 isn't the only Switch launch title that didn't chart. I am Setsuna and Nobunaga's Ambition: Sphere of Influence are missing too.
An HD Switch port of XX would've been too smart. Also would've been the only way I would've been interested enough to purchase the game. I'm not doing all thos low and high rank quests again.Should have had a MH port ready to go for launch, Nintendo paying for the port would have made too much sense. I know what I'm doing on the 18th.
None of those are surprising at all imo. Disgaea 5 and Nobunga are full priced 2+years old ports.
Actually with the exception of Bomberman every retail release on Switch from third parties is a late port.
Given on how heavily MHX relies on the second screen of the 3DS, I don't think it's as much of a trivial port job as you'd likeAn HD Switch port of XX would've been too smart.

I know it's small, but it's kind of funny how in 2 days the Switch sold more than XB1 TLD.
Yeah, they're all late ports so obviously they won't sell much. I just thought that it's worth mentioning because others only talked about Disgaea 5.None of those are surprising at all imo. Disgaea 5 and Nobunga are full priced 2+years old ports.

Aww Bombaman only 36k.T_T I thought it would reach 50k.
Lets hope it had enough legs next week when people already finish Zelda BoTW there.^^

Wat? The bottom screen on 3DS just de-clutters the HUD. Your special attacks could be mapped to the left joycon's face buttons/D-Pad. Not complicated. Also didn't stop them from porting it to 3G to Wii U, which I played with a Pro Controller with no Gamepad use.Given on how heavily MHX relies on the second screen of the 3DS, I don't think it's as much of a trivial port job as you'd like
SD Cards exist!?
Zelda sold the double... Not even close.So horizon did not outsell zelda.. comget am cry?

Yes they do. Misses the point entirely though. So you think that Japanese gamers, who already have a lower digital download rate are going to go spend significant extra to download games instead of just getting the game physically?
You're forgetting the fact that the switch has two sticks which frees up the d-pad for hunter arts. There's also the triggers which can act as modifiers for quick crafting.Given on how heavily MHX relies on the second screen of the 3DS, I don't think it's as much of a trivial port job as you'd like
That's good to know. Maybe I'll give it a go since game data transfers. I'd really like to play it on Switch in dock mode with a Pro Controller though. Ah well.Apparently game data transfers over so you wont have to. Granted I am not buying XX for 3DS period when it launches i internationally because 4 MH on one system is excess for me especially when all ny buds didnt buy generations because 4U was better content wise. If it goes to Switch I will for better graphics and controller support.
Hoping to see Disgaea 5 in Famitsu's top 30

We played Monster Hunter without a second screen for years. Just takes a bit of minor reworking.
Nobunaga's isn't surprising, The last two games (Way of Heaven/Sphere of Influence) opened to 6.1k and 5.6k on Vita respectively (and went on to sell 36k/53k LT with all versions combined).
I am Setsuna is a whole case of "I don't know why they bothered".
Probably best Bomberman launch sales since N64 age.
Disagree with the bolded completely.
And digital will only increase as time goes on, even in Japan.
Everything you mention regarding second screen has a single screen solution. And there are plenty of buttons on the joycons to handle kick and special action. There's +, -, ZR, ZL.the touch screen also indicates hunter art charge levels, and you'd also have to bind kick/special-action somewhere as well
there's also the second screen being used for things like chat actions, village warping, etc
3G started out as a game using a single screen that had additional second screen functionality added to it. MHX started out with the assumption of two screens. one is much easier to decouple than the other

ZR and ZL are already mapped to target lock and chat; +/- are menu buttons.Everything you mention regarding second screen has a single screen solution. And there are plenty of buttons on the joycons to handle kick and special action. There's +, -, ZR, ZL.
wait, someone actually expected HZD to outsell Zelda? In Japan of all places?
Kick can be mapped to the select button. Special action can be mapped to one of the triggers. Chat actions can be mapped to the other trigger. Village warping can simply be added to the start menu.the touch screen also indicates hunter art charge levels, and you'd also have to bind kick/special-action somewhere as well

BotW sales are pretty good considering the series has been selling pretty poorly since TP in Japan. Except for PH which is one of the highest selling Zeldas over there.

This might be extreme tales from my ass since I found it unsourced on 2ch while looking for other stuff, but it appears to be some sort of retailer survey detailing software titles purchased alongside a Switch
I disagree with the notion that owning a cart is so much better.Why is that?
And of course digital will only increase in the future, but the talk is about how it would influence overall sales right now for the launch titles
Zelda selling poorly lol. Still sells 400-500K per release on 3DS (for OOT3D it was 600K, MM3D + ALBW it was > 400K). Given that it's a launch game, it has the potential to sell more like OOT3D. We'll see though. Those are still decently good sales in Japan. It's just no longer the juggernaut it is in the West.
