Dragon Quest X for Switch is free for Wii version owner, if it manage to put out like 50k-100k physical copies, that will be a surprise.
Version 4 isn't included in the free upgrade though so that should sell really well, when it releases shortly after.
I'm not arguing anything. Nintendo said this thing is a home console. They released "home console" type games. Maybe you don't agree with that, but this is where we're at now.

Yeah, battle of PS4 vs Switch Version, but that on late fall or winter, not this summer.
I wanna see who 100k first (money on Switch), or not at all because PC version is really superior and portable. (my friend play it on MS Surface)
Unless something has changed, the PS4 subscription is also more expensive.
What a messSquare Enix lowkey trying to sabotage the PS4 release of DQX.

I believe that next week I will have computer again.
I can do it in the meantime, if you'd like, I just have to dredge up the old year data.
I was thinking about the, "Splatoon is a twist on the shooter genre", "ARMS is a twist on the fighting genre".
Then I was thinking, "Oh, at least Nintendo won't have to do a twist on the MOBA genre" since there have already been different takes on that: Smite, Battleborn, Paragon.
However, I was thinking that a MOBA might be something that Intelligent Systems would do as another spin-off with Fire Emblem after Fire Emblem Warriors.
nintendo has strong multiplayer/co-op designed games, i think a nintendo polished moba would do well, maybe even go the smash route and use characters from their series againI was thinking about the, "Splatoon is a twist on the shooter genre", "ARMS is a twist on the fighting genre".

Q3 If demand for Nintendo Switch reaches the same levels that Wii did, isnt it likely that the product will be sold out during the holiday season if you cant secure sufficient inventory levels by the fall? Are you taking any steps to address this, such as establishing an expandable assembly line?
A3 Kimishima:
Our initial plan for the Nintendo Switch hardware shipments for the last fiscal year was 2 million units, but we saw the high anticipation from consumers prior to launch and began additional production, allowing us to ultimately ship 2.74 million units. We are planning to ship 10 million units this fiscal year, and this figure takes into account the fantastic response we have received from consumers. Planning to ship 10 million units means that we actually plan to produce more than that including units in our warehouse and in-transit product. We are not currently producing this full amount all at once. We expect that the number of consumers who want to buy the hardware will increase as we release titles such as ARMS, Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Odyssey, so our current production model takes that into account.
Its all because of him.Since youtube gets mentioned, what's with Nintendo JPs latest vid with 2 guys seemingly playing minecraft having 688k views in 20 hours?
anyone know why the vid is significant? Cause that's Zelda E3 numbers... (i'm not sure it's an ad since it's 20 minutes long)

The average Western AAA budget these days is actually more like $80-$100+ million.
For Nintendo, it varies wildly based on what they're making. That "Zelda needs to sell 2 million copies." thing was actually before the year long (ultimately more than a year) delay IIRC, and when they thought they would max out at 200 staff (instead of the 300 they actually maxed out at), so I would suspect that was probably around a $40-$50+ million game.
But yes, I would model their regular Wii U games (removing things like Smash and Zelda) as mid-tier Japanese budgets, so more in the $12-$25 million just doing staff counts, years of development time, a general lack of heavily animated cutscenes/major set pieces, and adjusting a bit for Japanese salaries.

Follow Japanese game industry but didn't know Game Center CX?!!

I think it will go up around 70-80k like MK8DThere we go.
That definitely ties in with my earlier post that Kimishima stated that they would expect more people to buy Switch units during releases of ARMS, Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Odyssey that they tied it to their production plans to make sure they have shipments ready for those releases.
So the only question is whether it's just a one time bigger shipment or say going up from 25k to 50k units for a few weeks.

The DQX makes me wonder about a potential FFXIV Switch. Does the current FFXIV subscription cover both PS4 and PC? Wasn't there also a subscription option that covered both DQX and FFXIV on PC?Well at least they seem balanced for DQXI so far
DQX seems more due to Sony/Nintendo policies...
