/v/ btfo once again.
NOOOOOOOOOI SPAMMED THE BOARD WITH ALL THESE EMULATOR THREADS FOR FUCKING NOTHING???
Here before the melty.
still slower than the e-waste build I did in 2014Xeon E5440@3.8GHz
>>750988367It'll sell roughly 3DS numbers by end of life, to Switch 1s roughly DS numbers. This is exactly what I predicted before it was even announced.
The games that sold a million since the last earnings' release.
That seems awfully low, that's a bit over 2 million since the last report. They were doing 5 million per quarter previously.
>>750988367I'm bit confused. Wasn't Switch 2 a massive flop commercially?
>Bananza finally reached 5 million units soldNoice, already outsold TF.
>>750988535No it’s been a monumental success ESPECIaLLY when it comes to software sales.
>>750988512The price hike hurt it. But with OoT coming out, it will move a ton of Switch 2 units during the Holidays.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - 72.00MAnimal Crossing: New Horizons - 50.63MSuper Smash Bros.

>fortunes weave 1.34mYou will get 3h shit in Fire Emblem forever, it likely outsold engage by now.
>Fire Emblem at 1 million with only 2 weeks worth of sales>Star Fox finally crossed a million>Splatoon Raiders at 2 million>DK Bananza at 5 millionPretty good results.
>>750988657How much did Engage sell again?
>>750988625Fat Fox won. I wonder how he will celebrate the success of his remake
>>750988467>Fastest selling console of all time>Selling much faster than Switch>26 million in 16 months>I-it'll only do another 50 million in the next 80 months! That's w-what I predicted!
>>750988367Nice to see Starfox hit a milly
>>750988367People overestimate the hardware sales and underestimate the software sales
>>750988625>Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave - 1.34M>Star Fox - 1.17MOhnonononono trannyjeets! Our cope????? They were supposed to flop!
>>750988743It's not the fastest selling anymore. It's like 4th or 5th.
>>7509887071.6 million, and then never sold enough to show up on the reports again. no idea if it ever broke 2 since nintendo doesn't report on incremental sales lower than 1 million in a single quarter.
>>750988625Too bad Yoshi still hasn't hit a million, it's a genuinely great game.
How the fuck did Rhythm Heaven sell almost 3 million?>>7509887071.68 million
>>750988625>Animal Crossing: New Horizons - 50.63M>the next animal crossing will be even more handholdy, safe and dollhousey
>>750988802>Fell for US only copeIt is worldwide, dumbass.
>>750988830HER gameHER franchiseHER companyHER world
Are Engage sissies gonna be ok
>>750988806It had an awful marketing campaign in the US
>>750988625>Splatoon Raiders - 2.42MSplatoon spin-off sold more than Wolverine LMAO
Switch will rape the PS2 by the end of next year.
>>750988950already did
>>750988950It's already beaten the long established final count, just not the bullshit number Jim Ryan threw out in some random interview on a whim.
>>750988948And unlike Raiders Söiverine will have 0 legs
>>750988625>Air Riders will hit 2 million lifetimeFeels good.
>>750989121Really wish they'd cut its price, I love the game but barely anyone plays it anymore.
>>750988402The only thing emulation threads achieves is proving that the people who're always complaining about nintendo games are desperate to play them
>>750989195>>750989121I feel like Sakurai is satisfied with it, it outsold the first game's lifetime sales and then some
>>750989195The fact the game is region lock has actively killed it. I know they've already had to cut some events short like the last one because of internet issues, but it is a nightmare for anyone in EU (Ninty's weakest market from the Big 3) to get a match in Air Riders outside of Events. You pretty much need a friend if you want to grind ranks in the other modes.
Groove already beat DS in sales right?
New face of Fire Emblem
>>750989431Probably since the game has some crazy legs in Japan, they're definitely working on the next one as we speak lmao.Well deserved.
Btw, Nintendo has Fire emblem at 420k in Japan , that means only 36% of sales were physical
>>750988367>switch 1 already right besides the absolute cope limit>BEFORE holiday season
Fire Emblem Three Houses (10 weeks) - 480k in JapanFire Emblem Engage (10 weeks) - 430k in JapanFire Emblem Fortune's Weave (2 weeks) - 420k in Japan
man famitsu thread gonna be hilarious
>>750989508lmao so it really did blow the fuck out of Awakening, so much for being a flop
>>750989567Pretty sure neither 3H nor Engage were still charting on Famitsu at 10 weeks in. Those numbers are probably a bit earlier.
>Soiverine only sold 2 million copies so far>Needs at least 5-6 million just to break evenPost yfw Sony kills Insomniac
>>750989382>I know they've already had to cut some events short like the last one because of internet issuesthey weren't cut short because of internet issues, the last one was cut short because the game kept making the switch 2 start freezing up for over a second because the metric fuckton of stat drops suddenly coming out whenever someone was hit in the end game
>>750989610I’m not using Famitsu, those came from Nintendo’s financial reports3H and Engage both had 10 weeks of sales in their first report
>>750989697JRPGs are extremely frontloaded anon, reduce the window to 2 weeks and the number would barely go down on both 3H and engage.
>>750989697Oh, I see. I never noticed them doing regional breakdowns for individual game sales before.
>>750989676Erm, you lost the midterms, chuddie. The sales are gonna start rolling in now that the people have been freed from the authoritarian rule of Trump and his nazi cohort!
>>750988882LOVE HER FOREVER
>>750989676>>750989676Outsold by Splatoon Raiders a spinoff series in the same amount of time.
>>750989559I wonder what bullshit sony will try to increase the PS2 count yet again
>>750988367>switch 1157 million>switch 226 millionSo it FUCKING FAILED according to your own data. Retarded nintendie COPE knows no bounds!IT'S SO OVER for switch 2.
>>750989797>chuds hate israel and blackrock>the miga president lost>this is somehow bad for chuds??????
>>750989834EEEEIIEEEEEEEEEEEEN NIIIIIIIIIIIAISHITE
>>750988367combined with switch 2 sales barely outpacing current ps5 sales, i don't think we're going to see strong adoption for new consoles in general. it seems like nintendo is now experiencing what sony did with early ps5. users are still on the previous system. tomodachi life and rhythm heaven groove got that old-timey switch 1 bump, and pokemon z-a is getting outsold 2:1 by the nsw version and seemingly has no switch 2 legs.so far there hasn't been a strong case for switch 2 (unless you use my sponsor link in the description below). mkw is a pack-in, and maybe that's been what's primarily driving ns2 sales after being removed, but unlike mk8, it didn't build strong word of mouth before it became a proof of concept of what makes the platform stand out among the competition. bananza's not botw or mk8 dx, which both sold around 9m units by this point in nsw's life and on a smaller userbase.oot remake is not going to boost hardware sales on its own. switch 2 in general looks like it's replicating the ds -> 3ds transition in not having any particularly strong software for itself while relying on millennial nostalgia for the rest.
>>750989567Bro that's insane. Hoodweebs are more powerful than Harry Potter stacies.
>>750989676Wolverine sold 2.4M copies.https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR/library/er/pdf/26q2_supplement.pdf#page=12
>>750988402Kek my exact same thought when reading op.
NOOOO I POSTED IT WASN'T WORTH ITHOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?
>>750989919??? Switch 2 sold more on the exact amount of time as Switch 1
>>750990032The age of quipslop is so fucking over and I can't wait for Freya to bomb
smells like sealion post
>>750990060157 down to 26 is a catastrophic falloff, retardnintendo is FUCKING COOKED
>>750990094Hes currently having a meltdown about graphics in the emulator threads
>>750990130i'd warn you that pretending to be retarded too long can make your brain stuck that way, but i think i'm years too late to help you.
>>750990140yeah, the paragraphs full of empty words are hilarious, especially after being told repeatedly on how weird nintendo "considers" sales like ZA
>>750988882Thank you One Piece for unleashing this goddess on the world...
>Snifferine has still only sold 2.4 mil despite being out for almost two monthsGod if Fortune's Weave ends up lapping it that'd be the funniest thing. The ultimate and final humiliation.
>>750989960good post
>>750988625>Mario Kart World - 16.48MThose sales ain't stopping. Still surprised the attach rate for this game remains above 60%.>Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave - 1.34M>Star Fox - 1.17MVery good numbers for both.>Donkey Kong Bananza - 5.05 million>Pokémon Pokopia - 4.04M (sales outside Japan)>Splatoon Raiders - 2.42M>Kirby Air Riders - 1.94MVery good numbers. I wonder if Bananza could outsell Wolverine in the long run assuming Insomniac hits their required sales.>Switch 2 - 26.35M>Switch - 157.20M2.73M and 701k more units this quarter is pretty good with all the things against them right now.
>>750988367I'm only buying a Switch 2 if Crash Bandicoot is in the next Smash Bros. No Crash, no buy.
>>750988367This also isn't counting all the limited Zelda themed Switch 2s that are sold out all the time, is it?
Those 2W numbers for FW are crazy considering 3H had like an extra year of Switch 1 sales and is still on track for being handily outpaced. Holiday season will probably push it into overdrive
>>750988367Man, this guy is just not getting any engagement, huh?
Great numbers for Fire Emblem, Splatoon Raiders and Starfox.>700k Switch 1 sales on the slowest quarterYeah, even the (second) fake PS2 number is toast, will be surpassed at the end of 2027 at the latest.
>>750988367As a non-tendie this isn't even surprising to me, it really is the only console remotely even worth getting at this time.>>750988625Like none of these games appeal me but at least they're video games, instead of whatever the fuck picrel is. If Nintendo franchises involved FPS games I'd be creaming all over
>>750990438>"analysts" sayalso isn't mochizuki that faggot that nintendo directly called out and corrected because he kept lying?
"Switch2 sales slowed down" is ignoring people who got the zelda version
>>750988950Eh... I don't know if it's going to sell another 2.5M in Q3 given how old it is by now. Conservatively, it's probably going to rape the PS2 in Q4 or Q1 next year unless Nintendo does some sort of super discount for christmas.
>>750990492Anon said end of next year, not this one.
>>750990483yeahwhenever someone from bloomberg says shit involving nintendo it's this guy. wouldn't surprise me if he was the source of the whole macronix fake news
>>750990340>>750989743
>>750990340Who cares lol, Fire Emblem is already more profitable than Soiverine will ever be
>>750988535Fake news
>only like 17% of nintendo fans give a fuck about switch 2WOOOAH
Kneel.
>>750988367And none of them are from me.
>>750990584Tell that to P5 and 3H lol
>>750990652
>>750990583>>750990483What is it about Snoys that make them such obsessed freaks? I don't remember ever feeling such revulsion towards the average Xbot or Sega fanboy
>Nintendo alone got refunded $300M from orange retard's illegal tariffsHoly fuck, how much did the US government have to give out overall?
>>750988487>Rhythm Heaven 3 millionI don't expect it to become anything beyond a once a generation franchise but man I'm so fucking happy it finally had a real success story numbers wise even if I think Groove is lackluster in a lot of ways
>>750990652>poorfag support piracy not because he cant buy, but because he wants vengeance upon people who can.
>>750990773Eh personally I think it is the best the series has, but maybe because I'm a Tengokufag
>All of this plus Duskbloods Next year is gonna be great.
Oh wait didn't Sony release their financials too?
>>750990790Same, Beatspell alone was so good
>>750990818https://www.gematsu.com/2026/11/ps5-shipments-top-97-9-million-marvels-wolverine-tops-2-4-million
>>750990795>xenoshit>pokeslop>fromformulabest thing nintendo can do is just make it a metroid and kirby machine
>>750990860>those dont count!!!every time
>>750990832man wolverine just did that small huhalso how's that arksys game
>>750990872if you enjoy pokemon I think I just pity you. Great games for nintendo sales, yea. Great for me? fuck no. So what exactly should it "count" for?
>>750990656both of those were carried long term by covid, retard
>>750989925Don't expect them to know that.
>>750988367No one I knew had the gamecube when I was a child.
>>750990923nobody cares what you want
>>750990948you did because you replied. but sure ok man
>>750990947I only have one friend who did but he was an idort who barely ever finished any of his games. I ended up borrowing and keeping several of his games since he'd just drop them and stop caring, among them Path of Radiance and Skies of Arcadia.
>>750990795No splatoon 4 though
>>750990923Nobody asked for your racist pedophile ass opinion
launch aligned
>>750990990So you cared enough about Pokémon, Xenoblade, and Duskbloods to make a reply yourself?
>>750991108what's with that massive switch 1 boost in 4q?
>>750990923What the fuck do you even play? Caves of Qud and Binding of Isaac for the millionth time?
>>750988830Its a switch "1" game and 2/3 of that was japan
>>750991326Most of copies were played on switch 2 though
>>750991185Christmas
>>750991185Keep in mind they're not aligned to the calendar quarters. Switch 1 released in March while Switch 2 in June, so Q3 for Switch 2 is October-December when most sales are made while for Switch 1 that's Q4.
>>750988625>Star Fox outsold YoshiI think it’s time for Nintendo to admit that nobody cares about that gay dinosaur
Also as far as software is concerned, it's probably doing better barring the few big sellers compared to Switch 1
>>750989960Let me rape your cope in 4 sentences>fastest selling console of all time>1/3 of Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life sales were on Switch 2>Legends Z-A digital sales on Switch 2 are counted towards Switch 1 total and the numbers haven’t been updated in half a year anyway>Zelda is looking to have the biggest launch on Switch 2 behind only MKW and Pokopia
>>750991490I really like Mysterious Book but I hope Good Feel is allowed to focus on something else, Bakeru showed me they can make a very fun 3D platformer/beat-em up and I feel like they could pull off a great 3D Wario game.
>>750991490then why did I buy and enjoy mysterious book?
>>750991543the faggot stole it from retardera
>>750991673Not surprised.
>>750990350>Those sales ain't stopping. Still surprised the attach rate for this game remains above 60%.It's a fucking pack-in game. Are you stupid?
>>750991737That they're still making money on.
Turn this into another 2D Metroid situation and let Velan make an original Star Fox now.
>>750988625>Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave - 1.34M>Fortune's Weave less than 300k away from passing up Engage>on 2 weeks of salesFor perspective, Fire Emblem Three Houses did 1.7 million in 13 weeks and Engage's last known report of 1.6 million was in that same relative time frame, so it's off to an extremely strong start. Between that and its strong reviews I could see it clinching Best Strategy at end of year awards just like 3H did back in 2019.>>750989610Three Houses absolutely was charting 10 weeks in. It didn't fully disappear from the top 30 until 24 weeks in.Engage however did drop out after 7 weeks.
Oh yeah you guys saw Ravenous' new trailer? Nintendo preparing the metroid marketing.
>>750990032Imagine spending $300 million just for a fucking Fire Emblem game to sell half of that
>>750992084>>750992154>>750992320Best part about the Switch 2 and late Switch era is just how many non-AAA franchises Nintendo is developing to keep a consistent release schedule going and to boost IP recognizability.
>>750992154three houses did 2.29 million in 10 weeks tho?
>>750992737>ninteᥒd𐐬 is finally catching up with the rest of the industry>tendies think this is groundbreakingit's bleak
>>750992737Because Nintendo knows there’s value in the breadth of genres and appealing to as many people as possible instead of releasing 1 AAA slop a year like Wolverine and being cooked when the 3rd person cinematic experience fans don’t like it
>>750992737yeah, i don't give a fuck about yoshi and star fox but at least i appreciate nintendo is still releasing a variety of games in different genres despite the ever increasing budgets
>>750988367>2 million more consoles in 3 monthsEven if they hit 10 mil for christmas which is extremely unlikely they won't even hit 17 mil by the end of the financial year.
>>750993472their forecast is 36 million total Switch 2 (+16.5m)they're already at 26 million, so it's just 10 million more consoles to sell by March 2027
>>750988625StarFox will be a flop if it doesn't do well during Christmas.It only did 1 million in 2.5 months with that huge mario movie promotion.
>>750993472Their forecast for the 2027 fiscal year (April 2026-March 2027) is 16.5 M. They've sold 6.5 so far. They only need 10 M across the next six months, not just the holidays.
>>750992154For the gorillionth time, JRPGs are very frontloaded.There's little difference between 2 and 50 weeks after the initial sales unless theres some big update like torna.
>>750993276the rest of the industry is releasing one slop game a year with some luck, a game per decade if they arent lucky
>>750993682Three Houses doubled its initial sales over time.
>>750993737yeah because covid happened
>>750988625>MK8D casually selling 500k on Year 9 of its release, with the next Mario Kart already having been released alreadyGenerational performance.
>>750993792DX and World actually managed to coexist with one another, which is crazy.
>>750993758>Muh COVID copeJust admit you lost bub
>>750993276The current strategy of the rest of the industry is to make a single game with a 400+ million budget per year and then fire people when it fails to outsell Pikmin. Nintendo is clearly not doing that.
>>750993734>>750993914>dentbrained children thinking nintend𐐬 is a games developer and not a console conglomerate
>>750993792>>750993842What launching on the best selling console of all time as the default party game in the first months of year one does to you
Really interested seeing how Metroid and Kirby do at launch. I feel Ravenous has a good release date and a lot of hype and goodwill coming from Dread. World Beyond may get the open world (or rather big sandbox a la Odyssey) boost on top of the giant boost Forgotten Land already gave the Kirby series.
>>750993939It's both unlike Sony and Microsoft who caught exclusive disfunction during the 8th gen, and never recovered.
>>750994004Uh huh, whatever you say my man
>>750994041>more studios owned than exclusives released on PS5
>>750994096Wait, you think exclusives are a good thing?Lmao, sorry, I wasn't aware I was talking to a retard, nevermind
>>750993734>tfw you realize Nintendo releases more and better games in a year than AAA developers do in a decade
>>750993939>>750994041The sole studio that Nintendo has to my knowledge is Monolith, then it's essentially just a bunch of partnerships with Bandai, Mages, Koei Tecmo, PlatinumGames, etc.Nintendo do have several internal studios (9 or 11, can't remember) so the big N does act as a game dev too
>>750994096The dead weight is real.
>>750994165Good sir you have to be 18 to post here
I buyded one for 325 eurobux the other day but I might just re-sell it to some sucker for 400 or something.
>>750994181Retro Studios and Next Level Games are fully owned, plus a couple smaller ones like Nintendo Software Technology and Shiver Entertainment. Others like Intelligent Systems, HAL Laboratories and Game Freak are technically independent but 99% of their focus is on Nintendo exclusives.
>>750994219in what way the anon is wrong about stating Nintendo releases more and better games than the western AAA studios that keep going under or firing their staff ?
>>750994302If you haven't realized that Ninteᥒd𐐬 is slopping out the same shit for actual decades now AND the AAA industry is utter dogshit, you have to be a literal child
>>750994326Sorry I enjoy plenty of Japanese games and I have yet to see the issue with current Nintendo which releases a lot of different titles (Famicom Detective Club, Buddy Mission bond, Pikmin, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Mario, etc.)
>>750994415No I am being serious, you are simply too young to understand that it's all the same, on repeat, for literal decades. You'll grow up and get the experience necessary to understand that soon.
>>750994326>not throwing away what works, but refining and trying out new things where it matters>strengthen ip recognition among the masses>winIt's just that simple.
>>750988743Why do you keep stuttering, tendie?
>>750994439I'm 35 though
>>750994263Also Nintendo Studios Singapore which they bought from Bandai Namco a while ago.
>>750994458>refining and trying out new thingsFor customer spendingMario Kart has been shat on, killed, buried and then its grave pissed on
>>750994165i dont always consider them better, some of them are just slop filler, but atleast its a game. i never complained when inbetween games came out during the ps1 or ps2 era, just having the choice to play a quick 10-15 hr rpg or some quick action game was good. the problem is now, you gotta wait years for just a GTA and if its not your dish, too bad. the other choice is to find some gay time waster shit like a gacha or mmo>>750994326nintendo is an ecosystem setup, they definintely make slop filler shit, but they make it between more big games. yes the AAA industry is dogshit too. what is your strategy? im assuming it has to start with PC, and you pick and choose titles from various studios (crimson desert at the beginning of the year, blood of the dawnwalker during the middle, last month ace combat, recently phantom blade zero, etc). please dont say "indie shit", you get a chance to prep your answer, and good god dont say gacha or the latest WoW
>>750994476Sure you are, little guy
>>750994510>you get a chance to prep your answerWhy the fuck would I grace a tendie with a serious answer lmao, get over yourself, dreg
>>750993906You're the one that already moved the goalpost from>All ecelebs and journos are on our side! FW is gonna be YUGE and make FE great again! It will prove once and for all pandering to the filthy weebs with engage was a mistake because FW will outsell even 3H!All the way down to>Who cares about japan? International sales will make FW easily outsell engage.And now all the way down to>Please wait 2 more months, surely this time for real it will happen.
>>750994547>summary:its indie, gacha, or mmo. atleast admit to that answer, i can respect an anon that comes out to say that. the rest here admit they pay nintendoslop
I see the usual suspects are throwing a tantrum over Nintendo's continued success
>>750988367Good news. Good gaming companies deserve succes
>>750994576I don't care for your respect, tendie, eyes to the floor
>>750994489If anything, Mario Kart has been refined and evolved to such a degree it's only gotten more ambitious with what defines a mascot racer, which is why it keeps selling and turning a profit for Nintendo and becoming one of the most prestigious Mario spinoffs.
>>750991004Probably for 2028. Gotta give the mainline series a bit of a break to give people wanting more.
>>750994630Yes, I agree it has been refined to sell better and more to children and manchildren cultists that will never not buy nintensloρ
>>750994530can someone underage really afford all those games on Switch 2?
I see niggy is already in a downward spiral, can't imagine how much worse things will get in 4ish hours.
>>750994672Yes, it's called Christmas
>>750994647Yeah. 2027 is Pokémon year, and 3D Mario year too IF the leaks are correct.
>>750994687You'd be lucky to find any kid getting more than 3-4 games on a Christmas.
>>750994687whatever floats your boat in strongly believing I'm a shota then
>>750994510retro
>>750994660>Yes, I agree it has been refined to sell better and more to everyoneftfy
>>750994783Yeah "everyone", the illusive "everyone" crowdWe call them normies here, newfag
>>750994794Or gamers + normies.
>>750994765are you the same anon that replied to me earlier? honestly a good answer. i just replayed the some PS1 decomps back-to-back recently. Thats tecnically "retro" but runs so much better on PC.
>>750994794actually we call them normalfags, normies is the censored version normalfags use to larp.
>>750994819You're so right actually, I'm becoming complacent, the psyops are working...
>>750994819Sounds like you lost and got raped

>>750994943nintendo pretty much willingly walks into these games expecting like 3 mil sales at best, but they still do it. for the niche rpg player, im glad they do it. square finally spun it around to take this approach again with resonance and before that, the elliot game
>>750994879I'm pretty sure I'm neither a nigger, a jeet or a jew so that can't be it
>>750995038LMAO>>750995046Nintendo knows that with a properly managed budget, niché games will draw a profit high enough to justify ever making one in the first place.

>>750988625It's very sad to see Fortune's Weave succeed, I suppose difficulty and quality don't matter as long as it's a Three House adjacent game, how gay this world is.
>>750995279>city sim or theme park sim>followup to NintendoLand where you build the park on top of the themed minigames>online leaderboards to rank the best parks>Miyamoto rips them off for his real-life theme parks

>>750995387>youJust call me a tranny or a faggot, that's less of an insult than calling me some consolefag
>>750995360it had exponentially more production budget AND marketing/bribing budget put into it, only to still sell worse than engagethat is very much not a success, don't be surprised if nintendo silently pretends it never happened unless they put out a engage style DLC for it, just like they did with xeno 3 after it flopped and then "fixed" with XB2 style DLC, only to get dropped entirely
>>750995420Your computer has a console in it to write commands on, you are a consolefag.
>>750995370I literally gasp when i heard about nintendo land thinking it was a theme park sim with some sort of nintendo twist like "each guest are miis"boy was i wrong

>>750995350LMAOOOOOGachafaggots are subhuman and deserve this and more.
>>750988367GC sales are mostly unique sales (it's built like a tank), not inflated by repurchases like the Switch, due to how easily that piece of junk breaks.

>>750995709Cope
>>750995350Holy shit; I don't even think the Sony hacks have been this bad!
common pokemonCHAD W
>>750995387I find it funny people still use this cope.Nobody bought a PS2 for the first party exclusives, they bought them as DVD players and for the third party games.Nobody bought PCs for the exclusives once steam came out, because PC exclusives died after steam (indies are not a good cope when any indie worth playing instantly puts out a switch port ASAP after the game is content complete).Why would I buy a switch for the first party exclusives when I actually care about the JP third party games?
It'll sell 100 million by the end of its life. The usual Mario's, Zeldas etc will boost its sales here and there.It won't beat Switch, unless there is another covid.
>>750989884>I wonder what bullshit sony will try to increase the PS2 count yet againRe-release a PS2. Hardware and all Collection edition for the 20-30th anniversary, and cause its pure hardware they will count it towards the tally
>>750995808>ps2>pcFound your problem.
>>750995639>>750995791>parents who can't parent properly having to shill out hundreds for their mistakes at educating their childrenGood, hope they go poor
>>750995808those 3rd party games for the PS2 were exclusivessony needs more exclusive 3rd party games
>>750995794>Holy shit; I don't even think the Sony hacks have been this bad!Sony knew about it for weeks if not months AND TRIED TO HIDE IT. this was a Day Zero exploit and everything was resolved in 36 Hours. Calm down
>>750995808the switch 2 has an uphill fight because it got directly sabotaged by the burgeristan gubmint even before it launched, released into said israel bootlickers literally starting a war, then the AI niggers kickstarting one of, if not THE, worst economic bubble in history, only to cap it off with a complete shitshow of an economy in the west right afterwards
>>750995360As a person who hasn't played an FE since Conquest, what is it about Weave that makes the more franchised players hate it? Take note I recognize it has lots of brown and DEI, if that's the complaint (and one of the things I was cautious of). But after playing it, it also has lots of tits and ass, fun characters, interesting story but the game is absurdly long. Plus the DLC basically revealed I'm missing half my game, that's what pisses me off the most. If hacks ever allow the SW2 to broken wide open, I'm absolutely pirating the DLC in the future like I did with some SW1 games.>>750995808The third party games were "locked" to PS2 at the time though. I got a PS2 for christmas solely cuz i wanted to play MGS2 and FFX. Besides, our family had individual dvd players like we had VCR players back then. It's not like i want my dad interrupting my game time to fucking watch a movie
>>750995903meant for >>750995829
>>750995903Don't worry, super covid in 2029 will boost it over Switch 1 levels.
>>750995870>>750995946they are also effectively locked to the switch now though, because the alternative is a chink-first yacht company that actively hates your demographic or an israel-first data broker company that actively hates your demographicat this point i would rather pirate than buy outside the jp switch eshop
>>750995946>but the game is absurdly long. Plus the DLC basically revealed I'm missing half my game, that's what pisses me off the mostWhat an odd pair of complaints to have together.
>>750994181Here is a list of the big ones Nintendo fully owns:>Monolith Soft (Xenoblade/Zelda/tech support)>Retro Studio (Metroid Prime/Donkey Kong Country)>Next Level Games (Luigi's Mansion/Mario Strikers)>NERD (Hardware R&D)>NTD (Software R&D)>SRD (Support)>1-UP studio (Used to be a small RPG dev, now does support)>Shiver Entertainement (Tard wrangler for third parties that don't know how to optimize their games)>Nintendo Picture (internal CGI and animation provider)>Nintendo Studios Singapore (Bought from Bamco. Most recent studio. Has done nothing so far since it hasn't even been a year since they were bought)There are also some company that Nintendo partially owns, and other entities that exist to manage the rights of certain IPs. And they dole out those rights to close partners instead of outright buying them in most cases
>>750996070you make a good point against me. the game is long because of a lot of the map movement and stuff, not really cuz of tons of battles. if the dlc story were combined and you lopped off the "persona/atelier" stuff (collecting resources, map traveling, etc) itd' be long for a better reason - purely more stories and battles.
>>750995829The Switch was a relatively cheap toy parents bought to occupy their kids. Now kids don’t need consoles because everything they want is on the phone and tablet. There are also a lot less kids being born now due to the economy and gender divides.
>>750995901>this was a Day Zero exploit and everything was resolved in 36 Hours.That's 36 hours too long and you know it!
>>750995946>what is it about Weave that makes the more franchised players hate it?First, it's basically 3H 2, when 3H itself was already just persona 5 with a medieval skin and not really FE.Second, picrel.Third, the 3Hfags constantly whipped themselves into a frenzy during the entirety of engage's era saying how the franchise was ruined now due to pandering to "da weebs", how engage was a mistake and it flopped, and how 3H sold so much better and IS should go back to that formula, and THEN whipped themselves into another frenzy upon seeing niggerweave saying how it would outsell even 3H and make engage irrelevant forever.Pair it with the fact 3Hfags tend to be the type of "progressive" to do literal tumblrfaggotry, and you would be hard pressed to wonder why multiple groups have different reasons to mock niggerweave.And that's just on the launch window, stuff like the DLC just made things worse but someone already explained that.
>>750996212>That's 36 hours too long and you know it!ok steve, too much "play to be retarded on the internet" for you today
>>750993616No one's buying Shart Fox over OoT, lmao
>>750996272Who?

>>750988402>>750990048@NINTENDO@FBI@CIA
>>750993758It sold another million after covid ended.
>>750988487That puts Fortune's Weave sales at roughly 36% physical / 64% digital in Japan, if you believe the week 2 Famitsu numbers.
>>750997274Starting to think Famitsu is closer to vgchartz than it is to Media Create.
>>750997296anon, media create historically always inflated sony's numbers until it was obvious they couldn't pretend sony was winning anymore and started paywalling their numbersvery much like revenue reporting sources for gacha are doing right now after it's clear they can no longer pretend chink and gook gacha are beating japan
>>750990482>If Nintendo franchises involved FPS games
>>750997405The shooting is by far the worst part of every Metroid Prime.
>>750997393Damn, so Fate and Pokémon TCG were always the best gacha games?
>>750988367LmaoSwitch 2 has sold like shit compared to Switch.Sony wins again baby!
>>750997585It has sold way better than Switch.
>>750997470Pocket is the reason they started inflating numbers. They didn't like that it was always on top.
>>750988367NOOOOOOOOOO!!! RECOMPS, HACKS, SAVE ME AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!
>>750990941P5 had been out for 4 fucking years by the time covid hit, you troglodite.
>>750994895>>2 different JP games banned from steam almost back to back.The blancnigger is likely fucking fuming lmao.
>>750997585Launch aligned it's sold way better you math-challenged retard.
>>750994475He's making fun of you, moron. God damn you're stupid.
>>750988535You're not confused, you're an idiot.
>>750989960>and pokemon z-a is getting outsold 2:1 by the nsw versionFor games that released on both Switch 1 and 2, the digital sales count as Switch 1 sales, so that 4m is literally only physical. So, unless you are arguing that Pokemon sold 0 digital copy on Switch 2, this is not true at all.
>>750993616It's already sold better than most games in the series.
>>750993616>onlyFor the another remake of 64, it's very good.
>>750998383Its now the 4th best selling SF game, it was also (most likely) made with a tiny ass budget so it hitting past 1 million means they will see it as a viable franchise again. It finally happened.
>>750988625The software sales of Switch 2 seem really bad compared to the constant hitters they put out on the first. MKW did 16.5m cause it was bundled and it's literally Mario Kart, while everything else is bubbling around 2-4m. Gone are the days where Luigi's Mansion of all things could sell 15m. I kind of expected Switch Sports Resort to be a sleeper hit with casuals, but no one I know even knows it exists and I don't see much posts about it online.
>>750998703I miss the voucher program so much man, here in Sweden you could get 2 full price first party Nintendo games for the equivalent of 90 dollars, making the second game you chose a full half price, it was insane and made games like LM3 absolute bargain. Wouldnt surprise me if those vouchers helped boost a ton of titles.
>>750989960Take in mind the switch 2 has sold 30M on Mario Kart alone. When Zelda and Pokemon drop they're gonna sell 50M by the 2.5 year. Smash hasn't been announced yet. Overall the Switch 2 might not get the Switch 1 numbers but it's certainly selling 100M for sure.
This quarter's Switch 1 software sales are 64M of which Tomodachi Life and Rhythm Heaven account for just over 10. A lot of people who buy a Switch 2 are going to use it in a significant capacity to play Switch 1 games they may have missed (if they had one at all) rather than only sticking to exclusive Switch 2 games.
>>750988535It's crazy that it managed to sell that much with a bad launch window. Nintendo sold that system with niche games. It's concerning that Fire Emblem can't become a system seller despite getting so much support.
>>750988535Not really, it's just that the only exclusive it had at release was Mario Kart World. Not a bad game to lead with but they should've released Donkey Kong with the console too
>>750988625>Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - 72.00MLegit insane for an exclusive
>Switch 2 sold 68K units in Japan in last weekdamn the Zelda boost is starting.
>>750999642Really interested in next week's data.
>>750997856Called it. >>750999415>>750999574
>>750999457>niche gamesBelieve it or not there's a huge market for strong masculine figure + barefoot loli genre.
>>750999686Betting on 200K+ for next week.
>>750994569>Who cares about japan? International sales will make FW easily outsell engage.it already did tho
>>750993939man I guess EPD is a fantasy developer
Should I fucking grab one now or should I wait for Lite version?
>>750999686Sadly, the next complete global quarterly report comes out in early February.It's gonna be a while.And that report won't include any numbers for Metroid 6.
Say what you want about Nintendo, but they kept in mind that at the end of the day videogames are games, they didn't try to make them less "childish" by turning them into cinematic walkslop with boring realistic artstyles like Snoys and Xbland did
>>750988625Does the Mario Kart World totals include the Switch 2 bundle that came with it?
>>750988367Total sales for this quarter were 2.67 million which isn't horrible until you see sales have crashed in Japan. It sold 1.04 there last quarter and 0.4M last quarter (totaling 1.42M for the year). Price is certainly becoming an issue with this thing. Star Fox actually broke a million where Yoshi and Mario Tennis didn't so clearly price is a big issue for this fucking console. Games may be over priced at even $70. They sold 15 million in software which is up from about 9 million last quarter. Better but still not great when you realize Switch 1 sold 42 million in software in Q2 of 2018 and when the console sold 22 million, it sold 111 million in software. Attach rate for Switch 2 is still 2.8. The fact that Nintendo's best selling games were Switch 1 games, it kind of shows shit sells on Switch 1 and doesn't on Switch 2. Mario Kart World is still down from what 8 was doing around the same time (2.49M in Q2 of 18/19 yr). Sales were mostly driven by Global (see Starfox and FW which is still below Engage's 1.6M). Also, First party sales were 54% and first party sales (to total software) was 69%. So there really hasn't been a shift. Report is mid. Fanboys wont care much but investors are seeing the writing on the wall that this thing isn't going to do anywhere near Switch 1, especially in terms of software.>>750988467My guess is close to 90M. That's pretty much 3DS + Wii U
>>750997296other way aroundnote that there are different sales trackers in japan
>Nintendo forecasts 16m this year>only 6 mil so farOOT ain't moving 10 million.
>>751000454I don't think a lite is coming any time soon unless parts become cheaper
>>751000535Name two (2) Xbox exclusive walkslop games
Jomon company
>>751000683famous last words
>>751000745If its not showing October, I think Switch Sports could move units in Japan. But if this was a actual new 3D Zelda, I could see it.
>>751000454I know this is a meme post.But in case there are any honest lurkers:Look at the exclusives and look at your current Switch collection.Do you want Bananza, Mario Kart World, Pragmata, Cyberpunk, Indiana Jones, Kirby Air Riders, Pokopia, Fortune's Weave, N64 Remakes, and/or Metroid 6?Do you want your Switch 1 Zelda games to run at 60FPS?8-player local Mario Kart 8 on one console/TV?Play any of your other Switch 1 games at 1080p in handheld mode?Get any of the existing Switch 2 updates?Then get one.If not, don't.
>>751000659>It sold 1.04 there last quarter and 0.4M last quarter (totaling 1.42M for the year).wow its almost like sales are reduced in fall which has jack shit, compared from summer+golden week or holidays+ new years
>>751000918anon the "FW below Engage" should have tipped you off what kind of poster that faggot is
>>751000683To do it, it would have to sell 7 million next quarter and 3 the following one. Seeing as how Japanese sales collapsed after the pirce hike and Circana reporting the PS5 is overtaking Switch 2 post price hike in the US, it probably isn't happening. OOT will probably do slightly better than the doom predictions but will be WAY off what Tendies are claiming.
ahh yes my favorite collapse, 68k after the 20k
>>750992154>For perspective, Fire Emblem Three Houses did 1.7 million in 13 weeksNo it didn't, it did 2.3 million in ten weeks. Where do people keep getting this number?
>>750994895that explains the faggotry here, he is a gachafag
>>751000918>MUH GOLDEN WEEKThis is pure cope. You can look at the precious Famitsu threads and see Switch 2 was selling 60K a week before the price hike to 20K after.
>>750988367NINTENDOMINATION!
>>751001297you mean like how there's the usual ides of sales? and how the surprise ps5 boost was also due to exportshit?
>>750988540>>750988625>Donkey Kong Bananza - 5.05M
>>751001468so the only thing left to beat are Returns and DKC1
>>751000982that's just true doe, especially once you consider JRPGs are always frontloaded and the extra 8 weeks don't do muchsee you next fiscal report for the next "just wait 3 more months" cope i guess
>>751001717P5 wasn't frontloaded3H wasn't frontloadedP3R wasn't frontloaded
>>751001717yeah let's ignore the massive lead, the famitsu track showing upwards rather than downwards in sales, and the surprise digital sales
>>751001297>Switch 2 was selling 60K a week before the price hike to 20K after.It sold 68k literally just last week.
>>751001819anon he's avoiding famitsu threads because he's gonna get raped there, but he'll do the usual "I don't want to post in tendie safespace" excuse
>>751001782>P5 wasn't frontloaded>3H wasn't frontloadedCarried by covid long term.>P3R wasn't frontloadedIt literally was.
>almost a year long gap between release and COVID>COVID carried it
>>750988367Cubies in shambles
>>751002074P3R has sold like another million at least since its launch year. Also your Covid cope doesn't work when P5 has continued to sell millions.
>>751002339>P3R has sold like another million at least since its launch year.you mean due to it's late switch 2 port?
who cares it's all free on PC now
>>751002519>you mean due to it's [sic] late switch 2 port?Well it's also continued to sell on other platforms too. I notice you didn't address P5.
>>751002578You care apparently.
>>751002578Can you play it on your PC now?
>>751002826Piracy is about storing zip files in a folder and telling people to stop playing games
>>751002879and moral posturing, don't forget moral posturing
>>751002826>>751002879>>751002930You fuckers! I'm going to screencap the title screen of your precious game and then spend the rest of my day gloating about it!
