Amazing first week for Spider-Man.
Very disappointing that PS4's YTD 2018 is below YTD 2017 now tho...
Switch passed 5M.

though it had a couple of weeks before that happened.
God damn, Spider-Man is truly a WW IP. Impressive debut!
Looking at this thread, interesting that the PS4 is still ahead of the PS3 at the same point in time and how consistent the Switch sales have been this year (seriously, look at that line! So straight! :P).

Interesting, Switch sales are flat yet Software is again down. Would have expected Splatoon 2 to remain flat since it's the main SKU atm.
I mean its a Spider-Man release post MCU with a lot of global backing from Sony and Marvel.
This cant be really compared to past releases....Japanese gamers have been listening for a while whenever they had the feeling that a title is massive globally and didnt wanna miss out - see GTA, CoD, Skyrim and co.
Switch version is going to fall below the first 3DS entry which is in my opinion to be expected given smaller and less casual installed base. Holidays will be good for the game, though.
They got MH:W exclusive and they created one of the biggest marketing campaings Japan ever saw for it, what more could they do?
They tried hard, nothing worked, the japanese market is clearly not interested in their product.
Nice, I bet Spider-Man would have sold even better if they included his giant robot, Leopardon, from the 70s Spider-Man show.
This game is definitely proof that advertising works. Most Marvel movies haven't exactly did gangbusters in Japan, so this is a pleasant surprise.

I don't know. Because a major game with massive worldwide appeal which is exclusive came out?
Yes, I know japan doesn't buy home consoles (not named switch) anymore but its still surreal to see a game chart so high and sell so well yet see such a minor bump in hardware.
I expect Nintendo Direct to sell 100 million copies first-week (in Japan).
Spider-Man has a good chance of being the best selling game of 2018, even beating LGPE and Smash.
I meant to write exclusive, that's why I mentioned other exclusives like Smash and LGPE. My bad.
globally? maybe. but this is the MC thread, this ain't happening in Japan
Large PS4 growth is mostly done there especially with the Switch steadily growing stronger.
Mah boy Spidey!!!
Sure. But again this shows that Jp gamers nowadays is not as insular as the previous gens. And i believe it is due to PS3 era where many 3rd party simply fail to provides good game experience which lead to many jp gamers to try new thing from the west which have grown bigger and bigger each gen.
