Hopefully this means SE will entrust YT with more projects. .
Theres no general bar for doing good or bad regardless of the system, it all comes down to the game itself. Many series have sold less in this generation though, so some expectations might be lower than before.I guess over the next few weeks is when this thread really gets interesting, will be looking forward to it.
What are the early guesses on Switch?
RE7 doesn't seem great at 10k imo and I guess as some where saying the numbers down the line are a lot lower than they use to be.
Is 200k the new bar for doing good? atleast on ps4
I love this.
Well yeah you're comparing an exclusive with a game that came out on 3 consolesBayonetta 2 sure, but not the original.
PS3 Bayonetta [All Versions] 138.430 223.272 SEGA 10/29/2009
360 Bayonetta [All Versions] 66.211 118.165 SEGA 10/29/2009
WIU Bayonetta 2 33.114 51.361 Nintendo 9/20/2014

Nice to see a Platinum game sell well for once.
Platinum games sales, they just don't sell particularly well on Nintendo platforms (or at least not on the wii u).
Yup, only their Nintendo stuff bombed. It's not like they were reduced to working on low budget licensed stuff or anything.
Holy crap that's an outstanding result for Nier. And a much more disappointing opening for a major SRW game. Lol.
Nier and Nioh are definitely showing a strong upward trend for action RPGs of this sort on the PS4. Hopefully the industry takes advantage of the demand rather than letting the wind fade.

SRW has been in a downward spiral for a while now, given it and the general state of the mecha industry in japan I think it did fine.
Reduced to, you act like a studio for hire wasn't being a studio for hire. They were doing plenty of other stuff while also doing that.
That's an incredible debut for Nier. I'm assuming it's far above the original, and I'm surprised that it's almost equalled Resi 7's sales already!
They went from being hired to make ambitious new IPs to making low budget licensed games. If stuff like Bayonetta, Vanquish and Anarchy Reigns were selling well that wouldn't have happened. For that matter they wouldn't have ended up making a bunch of Wii U games either.
Tsutaya report regarding Switch Pre-orders:
Zelda Breath of the Wild is the most pre-ordered game by far. Pre-orders are 5 times higher than 1-2-Switch, the second most pre-ordered game.
Bomberman R is third and Dragon Quest Heroes 1-2 is fourth.
Regarding the profile of users, not only the usual Nintendo fans, also people who enjoy Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter, and other light users have Switch pre-ordered. He has the impression that a new audience is interested on the system, different from the typical Nintendo.

Sounds like a promising start, despite the weird quote at the end.
