2.5M first week, remember it was the switch first year so most of it's sales came after the launchDid Odyssey do like 5m in its first 3 days or week or I'm misremembering that?
Did Odyssey do like 5m in its first 3 days or week or I'm misremembering that?
Arceus did 6.5m opening weekend right? Sword and Shield I can't recall. Did they reveal first weekend sales of Smash?
They've had two 10m opening weekend sellers, so maybe it has set that as the bar. First 3 days might be lower than TotK and Pokémon SV but I'm confident it will break SV's record for first quarter sales.
Highly anticipated launch in late October + keep selling due to WoM + huge boost for black Friday + huge boost for Christmas. Also more tracking time than SV and TotK.
Has someone who is completely tired of the marvel brand I'm baffled people still eat these up as they do.Those figures for Spider-Man are nuts but I do think Wonder is going to have longer legs. Spider-Man 2 is very story driven so there's more FOMO there with wanting to buy it and beat it so you aren't spoiled on the internet.

Yeah I definitely think Wonder will be between Arceus and TotK, on the higher range. 7-9M. I don't doubt the potential for it doing 10m tho.Here's everything that was announced for the Switch, launch weekend 3-day sell-through figures.
- Pokémon Scarlet/Violet - >10.0M
- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - >10.0M < Scarlet/Violet
- Pokémon Legends: Arceus - >6.5M
- Pokémon BD/SP - >6.0M
- Pokémon Sword/Shield - >6.0M
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - >5.0M
- Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee - >3.0M
- Super Mario Odyssey - >2.0M
*New Horizons did not get an announcement but is estimated to be #3, around 7M
**Splatoon 3 did not get a WW announcement but did 3.45M in JP alone. Estimated to be around the SSBU figure.
I'm quite confident it doesn't. I expect a decently strong launch but 2D Mario games tend to be about the legsFirst 3 days might be lower than TotK and Pokémon SV but I'm confident it will break SV's record for first quarter sales.

People can complain about both Marvel and Mario oversaturation, and it may be true, but it's a vocal minority as they both typically sell like crazy (like the premise of this topic implies).Has someone who is completely tired of the marvel brand I'm baffled people still eat these up as they do.
To be fair there’s been 32 films in the MCU universe and 4 games? There’s been 50 Super Mario games alone, not counting spin-offs like Tennis, Strikers, etc. so it does go both ways.Has someone who is completely tired of the marvel brand I'm baffled people still eat these up as they do.

~170K physical copies for Mario Wonder in France in its first three days, best physical launch of the week
Thank you for saying this, I genuinely appreciate it. The harsh reality PlayStation and Marvel fans don't seem to want to accept is that Spider-Man is a cash cow. There's been so many Spider-Man games already, and the only reason they've given him yet another one (instead of someone like Hawkeye, who may not be as popular, yet is still a really nice guy with a great personality) is pure greed, plain and simple. When artistic merit takes a backseat to lining executive pockets, it makes me lose hope for the future of this hobby, and even society as a whole.
Meh. At least we have Mario. Nintendo has always done right by me, unlike $ony and Micro$oft. Personally, I'll stick with the old PS1 Spider-Man game by Neversoft. That game was my childhood, and it was made with love during a time when superheroes weren't poisoned by modern greed and oversaturation.
What is happening to the hobby I love?
/s. This is just a shitpost, but the thought of someone taking me seriously is terrifying

Most people don’t watch every single Marvel film and tv series or read every comic, they never have. Marvel publishes ~50 comics a month but even when I was following them, I rarely read more than 3 or 4 (and complained about all the crossovers with characters I didnt care about, demanding I buy more in order to follow the story).Has someone who is completely tired of the marvel brand I'm baffled people still eat these up as they do.
not to jump onto the dogpile that is already happening to you (and not to mention, i have no interest in marvel either) but, i do think this is a different case. it seems the most amount of marvel fatigue is found in the movie/tv industry, where marvel has produced an overwhelming amount of content. the games industry, and especially with this game as it is developed by sony themselves and not some shitty movie-licensed title, is not really in the same realm.Has someone who is completely tired of the marvel brand I'm baffled people still eat these up as they do.
someone is dogpiling me? who?not to jump onto the dogpile that is already happening to you (and not to mention, i have no interest in marvel either)
uh, the four people that already quoted you before me, lol. was just using a phrase.someone is dogpiling me? who?
Edit: Anyway its just my opinion on the whole marvel thing. Obviously millions of people think otherwise, and i do agree that Nintendo sometimes pushes the number of Mario related games to a unecessary number, that i also dont really care. So it's all fair game.
mario wonder? more like mario flopNo sales announcement for Wonder...
I do wonder how that will change if Insomniac starts turning into a super-hero factory like they seem to benot to jump onto the dogpile that is already happening to you (and not to mention, i have no interest in marvel either) but, i do think this is a different case. it seems the most amount of marvel fatigue is found in the movie/tv industry, where marvel has produced an overwhelming amount of content. the games industry, and especially with this game as it is developed by sony themselves and not some shitty movie-licensed title, is not really in the same realm.
if spider-man 2 and wolverine become Sony's best-selling first-party games this generation, I have no doubt Sony will force Marvel on them for probably the next decade unless they are also forced to make a GAAS (which would also probably be a Marvel game)I do wonder how that will change if Insomniac starts turning into a super-hero factory like they seem to be

Insomniac’s Spider-Man and the Square Enix games aren’t in the MCUTo be fair there’s been 32 films in the MCU universe and 4 games? There’s been 50 Super Mario games alone, not counting spin-offs like Tennis, Strikers, etc. so it does go both ways.
If it’s popular, people will buy it in droves.
welp…!
for reference, SMO was the fastest selling super mario before this.
it’s 9AM EST, so maybe once seattle gets to business hours we’ll get a US tweet.
Mario Wonder how much it soldmario wonder? more like mario flop
November 7th for the six months earnings call, but that covers April through the end of September. It's possible Nintendo share early Super Mario Bros Wonder sales there but not guaranteed because it released after the six month reporting period ended.We’re close to the next sales dump at the end of October anyway right? Probably no reason to reveal Wonder’s sales since they’ll be revealed then anyway
Yes, in their fiscal releases.Does Nintendo release numbers that take into consideration digital?
They had released numbers for Odyssey, right? Even tho it was an October gameNovember 7th for the six months earnings call, but that covers April through the end of September.

I don't remember. I know they did a press release to confirm it was (at the time) the fastest selling Super Mario title in the US and Europe, but I don't know if they announce figures early in their fiscal briefing.They had released numbers for Odyssey, right? Even tho it was an October game
kinda of expected since like last of us part 2 and GORW they had bigger openings than the originals but overall had much worse legsKind of what was expected, Spider-Man might have had a slightly bigger launch or about the same, but it will be beaten in legs pretty decisively.
Well, some people have such levels of fanboyism that they didn't expect it lolkinda of expected since like last of us part 2 and GORW they had bigger openings than the originals but overall had much worse legs
true,true but just something to observe since it's becoming more common for sequels that are pretty close to playing like the original (look at TOTK legs so far)Though this thread is about Holidays rather than launch which overall are very unlikely to go in Spider-Man's favor.

Though this thread is about Holidays rather than launch which overall are very unlikely to go in Spider-Man's favor.
Well I'm not saying it isn't already beating Spider-Man 2 though. It actually probably is, lol. I'm simply saying for the launch period it is pretty unlikely, and that the lead will get even more dominate for Wonder by the Holiday season.Who knows? SM2 in the UK dropped to No.3 last week (week 3) but Mario Wonder is still No.1
Need my time to win or else the other side wins and I lose. This year has been awful for games so I focus on sales date, more important than actual games. Especially in countries I don't live in.It's hard to establish who wins in sales if we don't have a simultaneous sales report
Ultimately who tf cares
