I wonder how much Horizons japanese dub helped.
They really nail the combat feel and mecha behavior. However GG somehow doesn't even bother to implement other half of MH that is "wear the skin of your enemy" part and the hunting part become strange mix between satisfaction and disappointment.

Yes, you are probably right. Concern trolling is the only problem. There is absolutely no problem of NIntendo fans being too defensive and fragile snowflakes. None at all.
It's the same at every console launch
I wonder how much Horizons japanese dub helped.
That is where my expectations were. I figured it would be in the 60-80K range with 90-100K being rather optimistic. It seems to have comfortably done better than that.For some reaosn I thought the expectations for Horizon were 70-100k. It looks to be opening at 150-200k, even outselling Zelda.
Horizon to sell 2.5M by the end of March confirmed.
Well I guess those are the other mods locking those threads then. I know you like to troll a bit on the side, but come on now.
It's the same at every console launch, there's just more concern trolling this time.
My statement goes both ways, not sure why you're reading that much into it.
Anyway, guess we'll see. Any fan is too sensitive on this forum, be it for Switch, PS4, Vita, Horizon, Spencer or other threads.

A while ago there was a common narrative that the PSV version always do better than the PS4 version (in multiplats), but now it looks like multiplats sell better on PS4?
While doing prediction I thought will it even do 50k first week (based on comgnet preorder number of mid 20 a week before launch). And now 150k first week is looking low.Another one, Kakaku.

Selling twice even thrice the number of FFXV? Unlikely

Were we expecting Horizon to beat Zelda? Genuinely curious here.

From what it looks right now first week for Switch will be at 300k-, not 300k+.
Maybe closer to 250k than 300k.

Maybe it is just the difficulty of doing a worldwide launch. Figuring out allocation and things of that nature.I do wonder why Nintendo didn't manage to ship more, I guess priorities lay elsewhere
Hmm i hope this thing is supply constrained as otherwise things don't look too swell.

Was Wii U worldwide? Or was it staggered?

At the very least the launch seemed to have gone well in france and it seems like they got a decent amount of stock. Reports of 4 times wii u's first week and I think the wii u did 65k over there 260k allocation assuming all stats are accurate.

It obviously is, you'd have to not have been paying attention to this very thread if you thought otherwise.
Retailers underestimated demand.
Eventually, you will remember that in Japan, the retailer decides the shipment. I feel like we go over this every time there's underestimated demand and limited stock yet people keep forgetting.

Retailers underestimated demand.
We know that but in launches stocks tend to be particularly scarce. Even if retailers ordered more or less that will inevitably be a trade off in launch system allocation. Nintendo has to decide where to send that stock.
I'm not so sure tbh. We'll have to see in the upcoming weeks. With basically no software I dunno if I really expect the sales to remain high. If we were expecting 300k and it does 250k is that a huge enough deviation to state undershipped?

I know Nintendo release their end of year financial reports around July but when do we usually hear about their forcasts for the next year, same time? Will be interesting to see what their goals are.
No. Nintendo's fiscal year ends in March. We should hear a full report towards the end of April.
I think the Switch screen manufacturers said they were told 10 million until the end of 2017, with potential for more if needed.
