Fwiw wolfenstein has been creeping up the eshop charts. It wasn't top 30 the first few days of release, and slowly climbed and now sitting at 17. Considering it's a 60 dollar game and most high charting titles on the eshop are significantly cheaper.

Wolf is now top 10 on eshop, the only non-Nintendo $60 dollar game on there.

Gonna be interesting to see just how many "MMO" shooters Switch can support. There's Paladins, Fortnite, and Warframe in the probably not so near future.

Nintendo posted some new financials.

Best analysis I've seen so far:

The Switch has already outsold the Wii U but software sales are slow.

I'd assume they would'nt be included for the "last year" figures, no?

Besides, Apr-June 2017 was right after the launch. And included MK8. I'm not shocked by those numbers TBH.

I’d say those numbers are actually really good. Especially considering that not much notable has come out in Q2. Comparing back to launch numbers and saying sales and attach rate has went down doesn’t really make sense. It seems really obvious that the first people to buy a switch are going to get more games.

Lmao at 1-2-Switch being fucking fifth. And it's not like there's been any long droughts. 90% of those must be launch-day sales.

Best Mario Kart game ever hitting #2 even though it's an enhanced port

In a little over a year it's sold almost 2 million more than vanilla MK8 too

Unfortunately Unity games in particular just seem to be terribly optimized on Switch.

Third parties just need to understand that there’s not much of a market for old ports or feature incomplete ports. It’s a hard sell to buy the latest South Park RPG on Switch for $60 when it’s selling for $20 on PS4 and X1 every other week.

My bold prediction is that Switch becomes the primary platform for Japanese centric games in the next 2 years. It regularly doubles the sales of the PS4 in Japan, eventually devs making games for a primarily Japanese audience will notice.

Edit; maybe even sooner. I would not be surprised for Switch to overtake PS4 in Japan By the end of its 2nd year.

Making a well optimized game in Unity is hard enough to begin with, doing it on a console is even more of a pain in the fucking ass. I don't know if there is a dollar amount that would get me to agree to shipping a Unity game on a console again.

Maybe in a couple of years Mike Acton and the dudes will change that, but for now hard pass.

kingv · « **Reply #8362 on:** August 02, 2018, 01:08:04 AM »

I'd be curious in understanding why. A lot of the games on unity that play like dog shit are not really very impressive graphically when it comes right down to it. It's weird to me that they perform so poorly on the switch (and frankly sometimes even a PS4).

agrajag · « **Reply #8363 on:** August 02, 2018, 01:16:08 AM »

It's weird to me seeing DK sales figure lower than a Kirby game. Nintendo really didn't take care of the franchise with all those weird bongo games.

The randomness really ruins the experience. There should be a mode without power ups.

One of the reasons why Diddy Kong Racing was the better RACING game to this day is that you didnt get random shit at least.

Best selling console in the US for June is the NES Classic

But from 99 MSPR upwards (some NPD's dick PR speak) it's the PS4 at #1 and Switch at #2.

Xbox One and PS4 sales also up compared to last year.

You can deactivate power ups in custom races In mk8 I think.

What sucks is that the game unlocks all major content from the start so there is no reason to even beat the unbalanced single player.

Yeah but it released on Nintendo's most popular console, when itbwas still not completely past its prime. In comparisson, DKC does poorly compared to Kirby on a console with a 20 mil install base.. Consider for a second that the original DKC was one of the top selling SNES games of all time.

Monster Hunter: World, the best-selling title in company history, achieved this 10 million-unit milestone following the titles' PC release on the globally accessible Steam platform, allowing the game to appeal to a wider fan base spread across a greater number of regions, and in combination with continued robust sales of the home console version of the game even now, more than six months after its release.
