848k for MHXX, huh?

So that gives:

MH4: 1.715.060
MH4G: 1.446.289
MHX: 1.488.367
MHXX: 848.467

Roughly 300k drop for MH4 > MH4G, but 600k drop from MHX to MHXX. Definitely on the lower end of expectations. Not surprising for MHX expansion, but still disappointing.

And I'd love to know where all those Switch units are coming from, ha ha.

Switch the no.1 selling hardware in a week where a new Monster Hunter releases for a different system

Better than I expected for Peach Beach Splash. Not good, but decent at least.

Much, much worse than I expected for Accel World. Holy crap, first outright bomba of the year that one imo. Pretty bad result from Monster Hunter XX too.

Vita hardware is slipping into obscurity sadly, Switch is really eating its audience. Ah well.

I am seeing a small drop for Zelda Switch and a high number for Switch hardware. I guess they had a decent restock this week. Next week, what with the Splatoon 2 testfire, do you guys think we will see a significantly larger shipment come to Japan?
 
Good show by Switch!

I think Nintendo must be shipping about 150 K consoles per week worldwide.

50K Japan
50K US
50K Europe and other

Also holy fuck at MHXX... but yet again, why did we need this game? They would be much better off trying MH5 Switch or something

Is that a good number for Switch hardware? I can't really tell with all the talk about supply constraints.

And good hold for Bomberman.
 
should have been a crossgen switch title but nooooooo

Capcom cant possibly take a "risk" like that

still im sure they are happy with 800k given it was probably a cheap game to throw out there

RIP MonHun amirite? Good SW numbers overall this week.
Good HW for Switch, nice boost for 3DS too considering the userbase.

Based on sales in JP alone, Nintendo must be pleased with the decision to release 1-2S separately.

Also, I have to imagine Zelda's SW numbers go back up when shipments are more plentiful.

3DS # | 42.279 | 23.681 | 26.052 | 359.719 | 359.343 | 22.520.464

Oh? Looks like the MHXX boost has brought 3DS 2017 sales back in line with 2016 sales. Not going to last long, though.

It's pretty much impossible currently to tell how well Switch is doing. I mean it would be pretty worrisome if with these numbers there wouldn't be supply issues considering that Switch is 240k units behind 3DS launches aligned.
 
Monster Hunter is now another series that died a slow death after Yokai Watch, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Ace Attorney and Mario.

RIP in peace.
 
Remember we have to add at least 10,000 digital sales for Senran Kagura (source Marvelous) which means the digital ratio is pretty interesting, right ?

Also, 5pb Games announced more than 40,000 sales (maybe shipped ?) for YU-NO even though there are less than 20,000 sales here.

Well this also has a rise in mobile gaming as a competitor at its launch vs when the 3ds launch.

Just realised that Minecraft PSV dropped off the Top 20 last week, for the first time since launch iirc. Guess Super Mario Maker for 3DS is going to top my "leg-o-meter" this year.

Is it? Even if there weren't supply problems that's a great hold for third week, better than 3DS.

They're selling what they ship right now.

We probably won't have a real idea of what the status is until the supply catches up.

When Capcom revealed the release date and sales expectation (2mil by 31st, Mar) everyone expected the simultaneous release of Switch version. I mean they could have just up-resed the 3DS version and it would still sell..
 
That's a huge drop from MH standard though. It will decline even further if they stick with 3DS. Time to move on.

3DS trying to cling hard

Frustrated by all the statements of trying to milk the system for more years from both Nintendo and other Japanese creators

i want off the 240p train...

Vita has been less than 10k for awhile now. How is switch eating it's audience when the top sellers are Zelda and 12 switch.

Overall good hardware sells all around. 3DS isn't going anywhere soon. Ps4 is on a nice stride as well.
 
Well in fairness, Splatoon was a powerful '+1 other game' seller in Japan, so it might be that people who buy the console for the testfire will buy Zelda to help validate their purchase.
I find it interesting how Bomberman is holding?
Also Zelda will easily reach 500k on Switch.

Had to grab it or Zelda to buy a Switch in Japan. Kinda scummy.
