Below Soulja boy so you know it's not goodHey, sorry to bother you but any chance there is PSVR numbers?
Its not even close Pokemon smash and second year hype is way bigger than a 5 year old console no matter what game is realeased.I'd argue that it's more impressive in a year where the biggest multi platform game of the gen launched, along with two of the biggest exclusive IP's this gen (which sold in record numbers), and Fortnite (which the Switch didn't get until midway through the year) the Switch (with a less impressive 2018 software wise than 2017) will manage to outsell the biggest console of the gen.
OH, is that how that works? Pack it up I guessIts not even close Pokemon smash and second year hype is way bigger than a 5 year old console no matter what game is realeased.
I've always said this. GTAV PS4Bone was a complete remaster with massive new features, much more than many other games actually branded remaster or Deluxe or HD (eg Mario Kart DX).Having the world "remastered" in the title doesn't make it more of a remaster than GTA V. GTA V has so much more content and features than the original release. It isn't a straight port by any means.
Soulja boy losing its momentum.
This is the tweet I was referring to, not the one you guys keep misinterpreting. He's obviously referring to December lol.

It didn't before though. In the thread it says the OP was updated for clarity.
Kinda sad you have to clarify that 😂I should probably clarify that adding the Souljaboy console to the ranking was a joke lol.
How many units is the PS4 up so far this year? I know we expect Switch will easily take December, but based on Mat's comments maybe Dec is closer than expected, or the gap is larger than expected.
Very healthy ending of a very good year in the US. I'm thinking next year will be harder to grow YoY.

Are the SNES/NES Classic classified as consoles? Any numbers availabe for those? Will PSX Classic be tracked for December?
Correct.That doesn't imply that switch and PS4 will be close in December, just that it might not quite make up the current YoY gap of around 800K.

Fallout 76 did not sell worse then New Vegas. It sold worst physically. Digital sales for 76 make up anywhere from 30-50%You were told right.
Disregarding the obvious signs of disastrous sales (all those panicked >33% discounts in the first few weeks...oof), just look at the numbers. It sold worse than New Vegas in its first month. Keep in mind, Fallout 4 sold about triple what New Vegas did in their first months. And yes, I know that doesn't include all the people that bought it digitally (and are probably wishing they didn't...), but somehow it doesn't seem like those extra sales would be enough to close the gap.
Not to mention there seems to be a new fiasco every other day revolving around either 76's preorder bonuses, exorbitant microtransaction prices, the game itself in general, or some combination of those three. After the holidays, this game's sales are going to sink like a stone.
That's not to say Beth can't turn things around in the future, but for now: yeah, it's pretty much a bomb. I can't honestly classify it as anything else.
About 800k apparently. So a big task to outsell it by that margin - was always going to be close but would think the Switch sneaks it considering how well Smash is doing and presumably driving hardware.
I mean a few hundred thousand difference doesn't really matter anyway - basically even with both selling like crazy
I wasn't implying about December. I was talking about the end of the year and who is going to get overall for the year. Obviously December's total is going to make or break that depending on how much more the Switch sells than PS4. That's what I meant by close.
Wut. I was just pointing out that we can speculate for ages but no real data to go off of. If 3rd parties suddenly released day and date on a Nintendo system would they perform just as well as they do on PS/Xbox/PC and therefore knock all of the first party stuff down? No one knows, all we know is that 3rd party is strong on PS/Xbox and not on Nintendo. It would be really interesting if GTA6, COD, Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, etc all releases on a Nintendo console day 1.That's a bit of an oxymoron isn't it considering those publishers care about money first and foremost. If they don't put it on the system then there's a reason for it.
Not sure what anyone was minterpreting then? I think at this point the total sales for the year are going to be fairly close between the PS4 and switch and pretty much everyone would agree with that.
It did great, Phil and the team have really turned that ship around and it will hopefully give Sony a run for its money next gen !MS might be the most impressive even if technically they finished just a tad below the other two in units sold.
XBox brand is still quite strong in the US and XBox One X has really turned things around for them.
Are those the only other platforms Nintendo has produced besides Switch? What I asked about was literally quoted.Used to sell when?
Switch is surely healtier than 3DS and WiiU combined in US.
This industry has never been on a healthier state in terms of sales and relationships. What a time to enjoy this hobby. What a time to see this industry flourish.
Interesting info. Thank you. Still, watching your multi million dollar franchise falling to <$30 AA tier must sting a bit. Still, business is business.]Price promotions are working wonders for BFV
Its launch was really muted but has since lagged pretty well considering the soft launch thanks to deep discounts.
Still not a good thing for EA overall as they are having to resort to driving down prices to move units but it's not quite the disaster it could have been looking at just pre-orders / launch sales
I see. I appreciate the response, though!
Because there's 0 reason for it to exist when main games are on the same console and with more features.I'm sure a new Pokemon Stadium with the full list of every Pokémon from all generations (809) would sell millions. I wonder why Nintendo never made a Pokemon Stadium 3.
