Man, the Switch is fast approaching 3 million sales within a couple of months... and people thought the Switch would be a flop (Well, come people at least.)
I know right! Based on Japans numbers for April we're at 3 million. With NA and Europe probably 3.5ish. Next week I'm sure a big boost will happen depending on supply due to MK8 Deluxe
More folks bought Zelda for the Switch then there are Switch owners.
Yeah, I'm sure some people bought a ME / SE to keep and a regular to play.

I know I did lol
Not surprising to me at all. I do think the system is going to stall out over the summer though with a lack of release titles. I'm buying Mario Kart 8 but I can see a lot of people waiting it out until Mario Odyssey.
I don't know, there are some pretty good titles coming out May, June, July, We'll also see what comes from E3, maybe something to fill the void in september/october. I have faith

Definitely good games on the way. Mario Kart 8, Splatoon 2, Skyrim, Super Mario Odyssey. Im sure we will hear about alot more on the way this summer closer to E3.
Human resource, puyopuyo, wonderboy, all great pick up and play for 5-20 mins and drop games
Pokemon sun and moon sold 15.44 million units from november 2016-March 2017
So Pokemon Sun and Moon sold more units in 5 months than the Wii U did in its entire life.
And how has it sold so many units considering it's just like NES Mini - AKA impossible to even find.
Also shows cancelling the NES classic won't really affect their numbers. A <$30m product can be harder to justify when they expect to make $1b. Of course they could just add $20 to the price and still sell many millions.
Haha, was about to say the opposite. Its looking good for us stock holders too. Was on a slight decline when the Switch first released but quickly jumped back up. I guess its all relative to how each person views their gains though.
I just meant based on the market's reaction and drop in price today. I personally think the earnings release seems solid, but I'm not someone who is great at analyzing them. It's been a fun ride owning Nintendo through the Pokemon Go craze and now the Switch.
What was the Wii U at, 13 Million or so lifetime units sold? 10 Million for Switch in the first year would be awesome.
Yeah wii u was 13.56 million Life time, wii u first year was 3.5 about lol, if switch can do 10 million in 12 months + the release month of 2.74 million it would be amazing lol. be nearly wii u's life time in a year lol
More folks bought Zelda for the Switch then there are Switch owners.
Didn't this happen with ET too?
