I know there was a lot of curiosity about how the Switch port of Red Dead Redemption might do, given it's a beloved game and IP getting its Nintendo debut, but at the same time the actual release being caught up in quite a bit of controversy, but it looks like it's done well. RDR is currently #3 on the eShop (#4 on the Canadian one), so it looks like the Switch audience has responded well to the game. I think the actual port being functional, rather than the broken hot mess that the GTA Trilogy was, helps too (plus the GTA trilogy also did well on Switch...), and the game itself has aged very well (and lends itself to the Switch form factor well).
I assume the physical release will end up doing well too. Hopefully this also means we can see RDR2 on Switch. I hate that game, but I also kind of like it, and think it's a masterpiece that everyone who has any interest in open world games or video game storytelling needs to play at least once.
