Another great week for Splatoon 3 which reaches 3 Million at retail. Somehow FIFA 23 Legacy Edition stays in Top 10. Decent debut for NieR Automata on Switch.

Hardware:
Nintendo Switch family (includes OLED, Lite and OG): 62,100 (this week), 3,506,077 (YTD)
Switch OLED: 36,923 (this week), 1,990,333 (YTD)
PS5 (all varieties): 5,546 (this week), 755,490 (YTD)
Xbox Series: 797 (this week), 235,630 (YTD)

Switch numbers good for the week, PS5 not great numbers, could fall behind Vita launch aligned. Bad week for Microsoft. Switch has passed 3.5 million for the year.
 
And Square seems to have rectified the DQX stock situation.

Definitely looks like DQ12 is going to be on Nintendo hardware if that 5:1 NSW/PS split is any indication 😮
 
This is absolutely not ok. They earn millions by doing literally nothing.
I once read someone supposedly in the know claiming that every single FIFA game on Switch has been a multi-million seller, which adds yet another layer of bullcrap to the situation: there's actually a sizable demand for FIFA games on Switch, but that people is being given something that can't even be called subpar at a premium price.

Even if they have to make 2 versions at launch, PS4 and 3ds for DQ11, it will appear on a nintendo console. The 3ds version outsold the ps4 version. But I think its coming out 2024 so by then the drake is out in the wild.
 
am I missing something here?
Software numbers are this week's and LTD. Hardware numbers I always present as this week's and YTD. I don't usually like to do the LTD numbers but will upon request (the Install Base link has the LTD numbers too)

EDIT: Switch family LTD is 26,425,578.
 
I don't have an account

if I shouldn't post in these threads for that reason that's understandable
You don't need an account to read the thread.
The first post in the thread on IB linked shows complete data thus answering your question.

Holy shit, Splatoon 3 is already halfway to beating Mario Kart 8 Deluxe sales in Japan. Wtf.
Outside of near-launch games, even evergreens are going to push by far their biggest numbers in the first few weeks. So I don't think already means much here; either a game is going to join the list of Big Numbers very quick, or it probably never will.

Ooof, PS5 version of DQX Offline either didn't get restocked or it's already saturated. I am not seeing it in that top 30.
