You know it's a bad week when best-selling game is at 20k... Good hold for Switch, at least.

Dead week made Animal Crossing come back this week

Oh, you wanted to be the leggiest game of 2017 BotW? Not today.

Are digital downloads a thing over there? Or is this it. Because that’s pretty damning.

I can’t help but imagine that setsuna was a slow burn over here, so I’m not expecting much from lost sphear sales in NA either...
 
Do we have any impressions on LS? IAS was pretty mediocre from the sound of things so I skipped it.
Was hoping that they’d build on the foundation and make a better game

Not a good sign for their future. Did Lost Sphear on Switch perform worse than the port of I Am Setsuna?
Yeah it's not looking good. Famitsu have the Switch Setsuna port at 4,625 first week, so 1k less than Lost Sphear on Switch (Media Create).

They aren't much of a thing over there, I think digital being 10% is the normal estimate (though it might vary depending on the type of game).
 
Zelda legs are really starting to show.

I wonder if more young adults are buying the Switch now. And if so, why?

Back when Splatoon came out (and moved a shit ton of hardware) Zelda was dropping every week. Lots of new owners but none of them gave two fuck about Zelda.

But now Zelda is either increasing or holding very well.
 
Lost Sphear's demo was terrible. It's generic and boring. Setsuna had many flaws, but at least it looked unique and could attract people because of it. Lost Sphear had nothing.

Meh week overall. Guess nothing will sell until Mario releases.

damn, Lost Sphear did really bad, Setsuna debuted with over 60K between PS4 and Vita

I thought Switch version would lead and sell way more than that

I thought that was speculated to be because people probably didn't have the money to buy both Splatoon and another expensive game like Zelda.

But yes, possibly more people are buying in anticipation for Mario.

Because quality always gets recognised in the end
