Yes. It came out on March 2 in Japan.Will we get HZD no. In there?? Thanks.
Yes. It came out on March 2 in Japan.
Good, Thanks!!
Soo.... Any chances of it being on top
Only in Japan will a Nier game open with comparable sales to a Zelda game lol.
Sure, zero.
And LTD nowhere close.
This is a pretty unnecessary detail given the user never asserted it would have similar LTD numbers. Seems more like you're attempting to downplay its strong opening.
Nobody cares for first week sales, LTD is the only that matters. One is a launch title, the other isn't.
A lot of people care that it launched to impressive numbers. I'm not sure what you're smoking.

I'm attempting to downplay Horizon's strong opening? OK.
Damn straight! I pity the fool who does."Nobody cares about this unless I care about it." - Chris1964
"Nobody cares about this unless I care about it." - Chris1964
I think Jawbreaker is talking about Nier Opening,might be wrong though.
You try very hard. I'm not referring to Horizon but Zelda.
We could assume with digital it is certainly over 200k though.
This is also only 2 days of tracking, shouldn't it had at least one or two more days for this week? I think once we see the sell through percentage we can get an idea of how many might have had to buy digital.
"Nintendo will keep releasing big first party titles at 3DS" - duckroll
After Fire Emblem will be Pokemon. But I'm sure you'll come up with some lame excuse about how it doesn't count or whatever. Or how it won't sell well. And then when it does, maybe no one cares? I'm not sure. Remind me.
You know, DS received a new Pokemon almost 2 years after 3DS was out. I never spoke for Pokemon not getting another entry on 3DS or what it will sell and we still wait to see who will be right for FE or what it will sell that "big" title.
So an attach rate of 58%.zelda botw switch is 193k according to famitsu

edit:forgot to mention this is pure physical copies, not including digital download card, so exact famitsu numbers later probably a bit higher
So what are you even talking about? Like, it doesn't seem like you really disagree with anything, you just say things sometimes to argue for the sake of arguing. What's the point? Before the FE Direct I was pointing out that there will probably be one more FE on 3DS before they move on to the Switch, and that Nintendo would continue to support the 3DS as the main portable console through 2017. They will have portable plans for the Switch from 2018 onwards. That's exactly how it is playing out. They announced FE Echos on 3DS and FE Warriors on New 3DS as well. The series will be headed to the Switch after that, but there are no quick Switch ports or secret Switch FE games this year because the 3DS is still in play.
Saying no one cares about FW in a sales thread where we debate weekly sales every week is... just stupid.
Zelda typically isn't a big seller in Japan.So an attach rate of 58%.
Disappointing.
I thought Zelda would break 200k, oh well.
I don't think it did badly, just surprised that there are so many people who bought a Switch without it.
Indeed. Going by all the pre-release talk in this thread, this is a disappointing result.So an attach rate of 58%.
Disappointing.
What's the fundamental difference between these two statements though. Major Nintendo fans don't have a turnaround of less than one year. Stuff that's released this year will be left over scraps while development moved to the switch. Simply still have first party releases this year which we know they have can be construed as support.No, we disagree. For me Nintendo is almost done with 3DS for software (for mainstream titles that has happened long time ago). All internal teams have moved to Switch and what's coming out is almost complete at development.
I don't see any plan of Switch being home console this year and portable next one.
No it's not it means switch owners found other worthwhile games to buy. Which is far more meaningful for the systems long term life than everyone buying Zelda. Zelda still sold well.Indeed. Going by all the pre-release talk in this thread, this is a disappointing result.

I know Zelda historic sales in Japan but I expected a bit higher attach rate for BotW nonetheless.Zelda typically isn't a big seller in Japan.
The blog is leaking/sharing some information about the Switch. But not sure if this is pre-order status or pre-orders share, or pre-orders based on total shipment or what. For the moment let's share it.
[NSW] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - 70%
[NSW] 1-2-Switch - 10%
[NSW] Bomberman R - 20%
Wall
[WIU] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - 20%
[NSW] Dragon Quest Heroes 1-2 - 20%
[NSW] PuyoPuyo Tetris - 10%

This is exaclty how he wrote it.
How?
Nobody cares for first week sales
Well, it's far better than what Twilight Princess performed on Wii in the first week (39%).Indeed. Going by all the pre-release talk in this thread, this is a disappointing result.
Still thinking it is going to be the Switchs first million seller and get there before MK8D drops.
I don't disagree with any of that. Obviously anything coming out this year is almost done. That's like... obvious? They're not going to start making 3DS games today. But they will continue to release 3DS games which are meant for a portable audience. Stuff like BotW, Arms, Splatoon, and Mario Odyssey are very clearly console style games. The portable style games will come later because Nintendo is focused on replacing the WiiU first.

Wii had exciting fresh new releases like Wii Sports however, good alternatives. Zelda is it this time around outside of a weak 2-1 Switch (and ports of older titles mainly).Well, it's far better than what Twilight Princess performed on Wii in the first week (39%).
I just had a bit higher expectation (above 70%).
Clearly it's Disgaea 5 the switch is the vita 2.Strange, Zelda numbers seem low, what are people getting for the Switch, Disgaea 5 and Setsuna? I can't see Zelda digital number percentage being high with essentially Nintendo handheld console that has low internal space and requires separate microSD cards. Maybe 10% as a high level and likely lower.
What are the 3DS average percentage for digital sales of retail games for things like Pokémon or FE or say handheld Zeldas?
1,2 Switch is a bit different compared to Wii Sports and Nintendo Land.I wish Nintendo had released a solid party game instead of Tech-Demo-Switch. Clearly, people are looking for something other than Zelda, but that something should have been high quality too. Wii Sports and NintendoLand have their flaws but they're very solid games, especially for launch. But a 58 on Metacritic for a high profile Nintendo game is not good. Whatever it sells and how much hardware it sells, it could be much more with the right party game.
There's still the digital sales. There may be hope just yet.
