For context, these were the numbers for their 3DS counterparts as of December 2018:
Fire Emblem Awakening - 2.28 million
A Link Between Worlds - 4.07 million
Fire Emblem Awakening - 2.28 million
A Link Between Worlds - 4.07 million
Link's Awakening will end up as the best selling 2d Zelda game. Insane.
Three Houses is almost already the best selling FE lol.

great for three houses. deserved indeed. great for links awakening. hoping for a remake of lttp or maybe lttp 3 next
Heck, it's possible (not guaranteed) that it ends up the second best selling Zelda sku ever behind BOTW Switch.

Three Houses should have good legs for a Fire Emblem game.
Right now it's topped only by all Fates SKUs combined -- will be nice to see it get over that line.

Good.
Nintendo financial report is the only digital Nintendo data we ever get so yes.

looks like we didn't get numbers, as it didn't pass 1 million sold. we may eventually get numbers in the future.
It needs to hit 1m to be featured. It has a good chance to happen for the full FY.

it'll do that easily, we'll get updated numbers in 6 months, it'll most likely be well over 3 million.
Fair enough, third best (although maybe LA can hit the required number before BOTW2 does, so that it can claim that position for a few months?)
We can start predicting Pokémon sales now. I still think the game won't do as great as you'd expect from a main Pokémon game on Switch, but apparently the platform can sell pretty much any game at the moment. Who's starting a poll?

I kinda want to celebrate FETH trampling previous franchise records by doing my third playthrough with the third house, but yeah, I can't really afford it since I'm still playing Witcher 3 and DQXI S, and with Pokémon arriving in a mere two weeks lol
I think it looks far less appealing than any previous gen, including Pokémon designs and visual style. Especially the legendaries look very bland. It's Pokémon, so of course it'll sell, but somehow I feel expectations for a main game on Switch are higher, and the game won't deliver on them.
Fire Emblem Three Houses is one of the best strategy games ever made. Insane value and crazily fun game, so much deserved.
Hopefully the season pass expansion for Three Houses will garnish more attention and a well timed bundle puts it over the top.
If B / W could sell with their designs, there is nothing in those of Sh / Sw that will drive anyone away.
To be fair, BotW 2 is not out yet, and we have no idea when it will be, so it's entirely possible for Link's Awakening to claim that spot until BotW2 releases.
Looks like a lot of people thought "full price" was an acceptable amount to pay for Link's Awakening.
That's not really a valid comparison since BW has some of the best designs in the franchise.
But anyway, Sword and Shield will be massive.
'Tis the order the games are mentioned in the document (quoted in the OP). Figured it was a minor enough change it didn't need mentioning.
It's a remake built from scratch, basically a full new game, so I don't see why not.
Oh I totally agree, I loved every minute with the title and I'm really happy so many people can experience it.
I am hoping 3 Houses out sells Fates. I do not want them going more anime waifu then they already are.
