Nice week for Switch and PS4 titles. Switch had 57.1% of hardware total sales, this is nice for Nintendo.

The 10th Rider2135d ago

Has been almost every single week except Golden week for like 3 months now . . .even with very few new releases.

The Switch is showing no signs of slowing down in the land of the rising sun.

Splatoon 2 is unstoppable! Another breakout Nintendo IP for sure.

So when people say all that is on Nintendo systems is Zelda and Mario...dont forget to add splatoon 👍🏾.

Prince_TFK2135d ago

Zelda, Mario, Smash, Pokemon, and now Splatoon are all Nintendo’s biggest franchises.

The 10th Rider2135d ago

Kind of.

2D Mario and Mario Kart are on an entirely different level, along with Pokemon.

Smash Bros and 3D Mario come in after that. Then you've got Splatoon and Animal Crossing, with Zelda typically coming in just behind those (typically faring much worse than Animal Crossing on handhelds, but better on home consoles).

Other than that Nintendo typically has a one-off wacky game that sells bonkers . . . Tomadachi Life, Brain Age, any of the Wii series. Those are always hard to judge, but they typically have one or two a generation.

There's also Luigi's Mansion and Nintendogs, which actually sell really well, but there's not enough entries in either series to really judge where they sit.

Sits something like this: Mario Kart > 2D Mario > Pokemon > Smash Bros > 3D Mario > Splatoon > Animal Crossing > Zelda . . . Luigi's Mansion and Nintendogs being up there, but difficult to place.

A throwback to old Final Fantasy? It'll do very well in Japan, I'm thinking 300,000 first week and over a million lifetime.

Oh for sure. It is already getting great scores.

Switch got a nice bump and Splatoon 2 is back on top despite being almost a year old at this point. Well played Nintendo.

Looking Ahead: The Lingering Questions About the Next Mario Kart

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."

I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.

gold_drake13d ago

there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.

nintendo needs their bangers early on

Animal crossing came out the week the entire world shutdown. Yeah I bought it.

kevco3370d ago

Agreed. I think a lot of the AC: H sales have to do with early lockdown players!

I mean, I would've played it anyway. But I guess there's a lot of people who got into it because of the hype and their new found free time!

DivineHand12570d ago

Nintendo made out like bandits with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's the same game that was on the WiiU except they added 2 item boxes like in double dash.

kevco3370d ago

It's the Capcom method:

1. Add a new word to the end of the title and features that should've been expected first time around.
2. Charge full price for it.
3. Profit.

gold_drake70d ago
