I'm here, don't know what to say anymore though. Sales threads are boring me since PS4 is unbeatable in that regard on the scale that only matters, the global scale.

We haven't had an article with a confirmed win for PS4 in months.

That said, Sony and Nintendo will reveal their fiscal year results around the end of this month, and Switch most likely won there.

Also, we all know that the only reason you care about it is because PS4 has the highest LTD and that you'll make up excuses after PS5 releases.

If I had a dollar for every xbox one sold this week I'd be rich enough to buy a bargain bin game. Exciting stuff.

3DS and Vita are starting to drop off now it seems.

Edit: I'm dumb, Vita is up from last week.

So you think Switch will overtake PS4's 100 million+ sales of this year?

Lol, even in 5 years Switch will still trail behind PS4.

Also funny you sheep forgot about Wii U? ...How could that possibly be huh sheep?

No, I don't think that Switch will sell 70 million units in a year; I think that comparing LTDs like this is stupid. You're effectively saying that Switch's success isn't impressive because it didn't sell like 60 million units on day 1, which is a really lame trolling attempt. Like, I get where I'm posting, but constantly using that argument actually makes you seem like the desperate one.

And I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with Wii U. It flopped, we know. That doesn't mean anything for how Switch is doing, especially since the "it'll stop selling after all of the Wii U owners get it argument is long dead.

That's a conservative estimate. It should pass by the middle if May, if not sooner due to the Golden Week holiday this month. (Not to mention the fact that more Pokemon info should come in May.)

Of course I didn't mean in a year. I'm talking about life time sales. You think Switch will overtake the 100+mil PS4 sales?

No, you did mean it because that's been the argument you've been using to negate any discussion. And idk, too early to tell. It should break 100 million though.

@techhog89: YOU are the desperate one because you have to brag about weekly switch sales in 1 country it does well in.

You ignore the other 200 countries on the planet PS4 dominates in. And as of right now the PS4 STILL has more consoles total sold in Japan than the switch. FACT.

These weekly Japan sales threads are honestly pathetic and desperate, but Nintendo fans are desperate for any good news.

Honestly... does it even matter? Switch is more handheld than console so it's doing the kinds of numbers for the market that they've traditionally done. They're not getting any benefit from it. It's not like the Switch is going to see any major AAA third party support. It's still practically seen as a toy by the rest of the industry. It's great that's it's selling well, but PS4 has already carved out its market, but the type of gaming both platforms do don't necessary have crossover appeal. It is what it is.

Imagine owning a console that failed so hard in every market that you have to hide behind a competitor to feel better about yourself. Pathetic. LOL

I always wondered about this. Maybe there's also a bunch of Japanese folks over there who are just really into all things American, like reverse weeaboos. Ameriboos if you will.

Link to the superior Dengeki sales with their longer list of game sales. Seriously, they report the top 50 best selling software. Weak ass Famitsu could never.

This whole posts reeks of desperation, clinging to straws, damage control, butthurt, its off the charts for staters there is only

195 countries worldwide

You are so butthurt that you threw out shit only for it to fall on your face, and not only is there not 200 countries the PS4 is not even on sale in nearly half of those 195 countries lol

Then you state as a fact that the PS4 STILL has sold more than Switch in Japan, but when the Switch takes over you will be crying that Japan doesn't matter.

Here's a meme to cheer you up AJ :)

It's just like Splatoon selling really well in Japan... they are really re-adopting basically their own hardware it seems in tne the modern era.... that is to say the Switch numbers remind me of that...
