Give credit to Splatoon 2 still ranking.

And i notice PS4 is consistent at 25k and PRO at 10k.

And Bone between 100 and 200, that must be huge for them.

Lol Japan and Xbox Won. :P

It's always nice seeing both Switch & PS4 doing well in Japan. Consoles aren't dead yet in Japan it seems.

And as for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, I bet anyone hardly went out and buy Wii U back then and since everyone knows Switch is a new console to begin with, it's obviously porting Wii U games to Switch is gonna make more then the Wii U counterpart.

GOW and Labo are reversed when you compare Japan to Uk.

Hardware sales boost across the board this week.

Are you saying it sold less than 88 thousand copies on Wii U in Japan ?

Amazing ... a 4 years old game , indie like, performs better on next-gen hardware !

Man, I always thought if this game was an indie it would be a HUGE hit. But people see Donkey Kong and turn away.

Nice to see Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze up there. I really enjoyed it on the Wii U and plan on getting the Switch version.

And you expect everyone to be using the E-word on the PC? I'm not gonna go that path.

@scatteh316 well seems god of war fell off bad. labo still hanging in japan.

According to Gamespot its significantly better on the Switch minus the fact that its the same game. Journalism at its best.

And people are still trying to compare God of War & Labo? Fucking LOL!

^^^^

just saying because he seems to like all versions aside the definite

only in sales my friend. only in sales.

Only you at the moment, LOL

Then I'm not into that type of thing. Comparing a toy to a video game? Come on!

Then look elsewhere, you won't find it here.

Exactly

Are you surprised? Fanatic logic knows no bounds when it comes to the absence of sound logic.

I never see anyone comparing a Toy to a video game. Apples & Oranges here. But then again, I'm no fanboy so what do I know right?

I thought video games are still considered toys? Because they still are no matter how anyone tries to say no.

Toys are tangible.

PS4 beats XboneU once again.

Maybe, just maybe its more about the device than the software itself in that case?

You know... one of the reasons the Switch is a success despite your constant disdain for it. People like using the Switch, people like the idea of portability. If it feels better to play on the Switch, then its better on the Switch.

Not a hard concept to grasp.

How insecure do you have to be to post this? Next you'll talk about how big your car is and how you're totally not compensating.

The article I read compared the launch weeks sales. Like around 33K on WiiU.

Lifetime sales, not sure but it's probably more than that.

Insecure about what ? Hahaha ! Stop crying
