No way is that The Last of Us Part 2 in the charts? I've sure been seeing it in a lot of sales charts over the past few months for a game that so many here claimed stopped selling after the first week.

It barely cracked the Top 10 in when it released in April of 2017, but by May it had dropped out of the Top 20.
The series isn't all that popular in Germany, mostly because prior to Persona 5 none of the entries got German translations.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
You could see FIFA in top sales European anything chart. Good country and good taste in games.

Which begs the question, why hasn't 2K capitalised on its success and made a Switch port? I mean that would probably sell 30 million copies no problem. Maybe they're tired of printing money.

most likely because they couldn't port over the current version of GTA Online and that way they can't easily monetize it. remember that last gen GTA Online stopped getting updates years ago.
and maybe the current version wouldn't work on Switch either due to RAM limitations or other issues.

I think you maybe right about GTA online being the problem as I doubt Switch would have problem running the base game, it's somewhat more powerful than PS3/360 after all. They would still make a ton I would assume from just offering single player version, but I guess hundreds of millions is small money to them these days.

Nintendo strong in Germany too? Never thought it was a real thing.
Where is that Captain Toad guy complaining about threads where Nintendo is the top seller?

I mean it's interesting to see, but why should a customer be worried about the game sales charts?

Because it was on a deep sale at the end of feb into march. It was 19,99€.
Any high profile game in the bargain bin sells well.

Once again, great to see Nintendo back on top.
The Wii U could've been a huge success if it simply had a different name. It's blatantly obvious at this point that the games weren't the problem.

Jokes have no boundaries, especially not in a place like this where you see far more heavy jokes.
I only edited for people like you that probably also hate stuff like south park.

Sure the darker the humor the funnier it can be but the more inappropriate it also is.
I guess sales figures are a really dry theme so you tried to "lift" it up.

All mobile games are digital
All free to play games are digital
All PC games are digital
Sony even stated more digital sales now then physical
Not sure about nintendo but they also stated late 2020 they had more digital then physical sales.
micrsosoft is probably one big gamepass galore at this point which will nuke sales heavily.
Add corona in the mix where no shop is open, and people buy way more digital then ever before.
Yea i would say those lists are beyond idiotic. it only showcases which company still sales the most physical copy's which is meaningless.

It's the next gen lul where there's not many new next gen games and people are holding off buying ps4 games to play them on ps5. Also Nintendo in their peak of the gen. It's a mismatch atm.1 Microsoft game
1 Sony game
12 Nintendo games

Shows the sad state that the industry is in.
Mainly one console
All but 3 are sequels or remakes (one of which is over 10 years old)
Only 2 are original : Ring Fit (a niche title) and Immortal Fenix Rising
The industry wont last long if the other consoles don't sell and if there are no new IP's (new blood!)

RingFit Adventure has sold 8.68 million units which is bigger than FF7R and Fenix Rising.

I also think it is like you say.
Nevertheless, such serious statements like
would be more serious with source evidence. Without this evidence, you only assume something, but present it as a binding statement.

Digital on console only makes up 24% in Germany. It may have been 30% in 2020.
Immer mehr Games in Deutschland werden als Download gekauft | game
Anteil der Download-Käufe auf 45 Prozent gestiegen 9 von 10 PC-Spielen werden mittlerweile als Download gekauft Deutscher Games-Markt durchbricht 6-Milliarden-Euro-Grenze Berlin, 7. Mai 2020 – In Deutschland werden immer mehr Games als Download gekauft.

Translation
Download portals such as the EGS, eShop, Origin, PSN, Steam, Uplay or the Xbox Store have firmly established themselves as sales outlets alongside traditional retailers. For PC gamers, the portals are even the number one point of contact: Around 9 out of 10 PC games are now purchased as downloads. For console games, the figure is 24 percent, or just under a quarter of all titles.

Sony is way stronger in Germany that Japan. Their hardware' sales are better than the Switch's (at least until the end of 2019 they were) and I bet if you split the software chart by SKU you would see quite a few PS4 or PS5 SKUs in the top 20 for February.
