I should pick it up, then. I'm in the mood for something outside the open world checklist stuff that's taken up a lot of my gaming time lately. I need something whimsical and well-made. This might be what I'm looking for.

i addressed that in my second sentence, I still don't get why that would prevent Nintendo from releasing them.
It's just the way it is. Always been the case. That's why we never get original HW numbers or Mario + Rabbids
Because that publishing information is with Koei Temco and their finances.
Nah. There's only ever the timeline where those pkm mainline games sell well and it's hardly surprising they get the same switch boost as everything else.
Possibly because it worked better with the GamePad on the Wii U than it did on the Switch
Nintendo only releases data for games they publish. KT already published AoC numbers anyway.
Your thread was deleted I think?
Last Pokémon entry to sell more than 20 million units was Gold/Silver, which totaled 23.73m. Sword/Shield has sold up until 31 December, 2020 20.35m. Let's Go also reach the 13m mark.
Thanks Serebii for the picture!
Well, it sold way better on Switch than Wii U. It just didn't get the type of boost most Nintendo series received on Switch.
Thats easy to say now, im talking about discussions before Switch was a established software sales monster.
Also underperforming is a relative, it obv. would still have sold well but according to some people not as well as past handheld games because of the price increase lol.
Not saying that i was sharing that sentiment.
Jesus, they're doing just ridiculous numbers. If there was ever a time for Nintendo to pump out new IPs or revive / establish older ones, this is the one. Really hoping Metroid breaks the 3 million mark on the Switch
Also, damn, with those SMP sales, you'd have thought they'd do some DLC or something. I'm really hoping the next one has more content, with larger and more complex maps and items, as I can't say me or my family were a fun

i guess that's the reason but it's still weird
Especially because Koei published the ENTIRE AOC numbers, including ones where Nintendo published the game... so I guess it doesn't go both ways? Lol
Man I'm happy for all these numbers but I am especially happy to see BotW continue to grow and Luigi's Mansion 3 just pouring in sales for something that's in many ways is a niche genre at best. Really curious to see what kind of bump BotW experiences, if any, when MonHun launches and hold out gamers pick up their Switches. I want new LM's as long as Nintendo is putting out new hardware.
it was merged as this thread already has the Pokemon Data in it. The milestone was threadmarked though.
I see, I kinda like the individual sales threads for specific games tho D:
Luigi's Mansion 3 hitting 1.3 million last quarter is pretty amazing. It seemed like it sold very well out of the gate but kind of tapered off, but it's steadily selling a ton. It will easily top 10 million and might double the sales of LM2 if it keeps up the pace.
3D All Stars sold over 8 million in three months and they're gonna chop the legs off that thing soon. Nintendo acting wild.

imo the sword/shield milestone deserves its own thread. if another one is made, we can remote pokemon from this threads title and add something else.

Nintendo right now is operating on a totally different level. 5 different 20+ million sellers, with two over 30 million.
Rumor has it. Tom Nook order the hit on Mario for March 31st.

He's the new face of Nintendo. It's Tom's World now.
I fixed it. Was expecting things to be overboard like last time but it seems everything evened out on its own.
If it isnt you will never see another Prime game again xD
But yeah the bar is rather low so its first shipment might outsell all past games if Nintendo pushes it hard.
I wonder how many billion dollar revenue title Switch has left. Could 3D World and Gen 4 remake sell more than 16.6 M LTD? BotW 2 seems possible. I don't know if Mario Party and Let's Go have another 3.3M in them for 2-3 years without price cuts but that's not impossible either.
"Super Mario 3D All-Stars, released in September as part of the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary campaign and selling 8.32 million units."
Hopefully that sells another 2M+ and kicks NSMBUDX off the top 10, though 3D World could also challenge that, and ring fit will hit 10 Million units too...

I'm curious to see how Captain Toad sold. Nintendo is criticized for launching damn near every game at $60 but there doesn't seem to be much evidence that the $40 MSRP did much to help CT, considering it doesn't chart above games I'd expect it to at least be competitive with like Pikmin 3.
They already have 3 successful new IPs on the Switch with ARMS, Astral Chain, & especially Ring Fit Adventure.

If Nintendo can remain wildly successful with their more traditional gaming/sales model even when we enter the subscription/streaming hell, I'll be more than happy.
Amazing numbers. Glad Nintendo is thriving because I love what they bring to the table.
Some things I noticed outside of the evergreens :
-51 ww games is doing very well. It is a big success in Japan and France I think.
-Paper Mario TOK doesn't seem to have very strong legs. It is doing well but it seems to be on the lower end of that switch boost. It needs to sell 1.2 millions more copies to beat the best selling entry Super PM. Don't know if it can get there.
-amazing numbers for Pikmin 3dx. Relieved it is doing well cause that kind of game really brings quality and diversity to Nintendo portfolio.
-Mario Maker 2 is also not enjoying a huge switch boost but it has almost sold 3 millions more copies than the first game. Hard to call a game selling 7 millions a flop. It just seems a bit tame in comparison.

I wonder if we are going to see the Nintendo Selects brand again. Looking at that sales of old games like MK8D and Zelda, I don't think so, but maybe they are waiting for the Switch Pro to reduce the price of launch titles?
