Nice boost for the Switch. Fire Emblem Warriors did pretty ok, too. According to Famitsu, Hyrule Warriors sold 78k at launch, so for a less popular series, 60k is quite good. That's more than HW Legends, btw (54k, again, Famitsu data).

PS4 growing the lead on YTD against 3DS...

And good predictions by hiska & co for Switch numbers based on the stock numbers we get every week.

Pretty large Switch bump.

Are the combined sales of FEW good? I forget how debut week for HW Wii U was.
 
Anyone able to comment on FIFA 18 Switch's 12k? Historically I haven't followed sports games' performance in the market across formats.

Both Trails and FEW look lower than expected.

It is amazing both are up YoY. I expected both to be down YoY this time last year.

Hope Switch stock can keep ramping up because we're slowly approaching the holidays.

All of these Switch titles getting huge boosts solely on more stock being available is wonderful.

Also rip MvCI.
 
I know it's only a psychological barrier, but Sen III failing to pass 100k seems like a pretty poor result. It seems like it sold kinda on par with the Vita-only versions of Sen I and II. Except there's no PS3 version to scoop up the rest of the sales this time.

Castle Panzers also failed to stem any of the sales that the series has continued to shed over the last few entries. Seems switching from Vita -> PS4 didn't fix anything for it, and I'm guessing Compile Heart will drop it altogether now. Although 5 entries in a franchise for them is a pretty stellar result these days, nothing aside from Neptunia has reached close to that level of stability.

Coven selling nothing, just like I suspected. Unless it has surprise legs like the Vita version (which I doubt) it'll be purely for the west, which seems to be happening no time soon.

Fire Emblem Warriors... lol. FIFA Switch did moderately better than I expected in that it at least outsold the Vita version's first weeks.

Wow, just realized MvCI didn't make top 20? A mediocre, full priced, year-late port of DBZ Xenoverse 2 on Switch outsold it.

Good job, Capcpom.
 
So how much did previous Sen No Kiseki titles sold?

02./00. [PSV] The Legend Of Heroes: Sen no Kiseki # <RPG> (Nihon Falcom) {2013.09.26} (¥7.140) - 81.622 / NEW <77,33%>
04./00. [PS3] The Legend Of Heroes: Sen no Kiseki # <RPG> (Nihon Falcom) {2013.09.26} (¥8.190) - 67.718 / NEW <76,76%>

02./00. [PSV] The Legend Of Heroes: Sen no Kiseki II # <RPG> (Nihon Falcom) {2014.09.25} (¥7.344) - 86.283 / NEW <71,96%>
05./00. [PS3] The Legend Of Heroes: Sen no Kiseki II # <RPG> (Nihon Falcom) {2014.09.25} (¥8.424) - 65.498 / NEW <77,41%>

At gamesmaya store some customers were wondering if Vita version was sold out and couldn't find it.

I ned to see the comparison for TOCS3, but that seems like a bad result. Great legs for MK8D, BOTW, and FIFA 18 is not that bad. Hopefully MHXX can keep selling in the 6k range throughout the fall period, could rake in several ten of thousands if not hundred thousand in that case.

Edit: Yeah, TOCS3 are bad. Western numbers will probably be better, though, so hopefully it balances out.
 
Disappointing for Fire Emblem Warriors. Sen also looks quite a bit down. Might get to 150k, some way from 200k of its predecessors.

CS3 and FEW are both low. Great bumps on catalog Switch games though. Pokken DX has a really solid 2nd week too.

It’s more than the UK, lol.
