How much can we expect Switch to sell in Japan?

>>377154670
More than Wii U, less than 3DS.

>More than Wii U
But that's obvious.

>>377154670

Probably 70% of 3DS'.

Its not overtaking 3DS despite 3DS's very slow initial sales. Notice how the sales spiked up significantly after the price drop?

Ultimately consoles are a dying market and the sales trend shows.

>>377154670
>It currently surpassed Wii U's sales WoW
What does WoW mean?

>>377155604
Probably a typo for YoY, which would be year over year?

>>377154670
WoW is on PC, not 3DS and Switch. I doubt the cartridges are even large enough to hold the whole of Azeroth.

>>377155402
It's also significant that right now, the Switch has a 100% sellthrough and a stock shortage. Most consoles level out fairly quickly after launch, but the Switch is still climbing, because would-be launch customers are still trying to find one to buy. I'd hold any predictions until we see what happens when there's a proper supply of Switch hardware.

its tailing only 1 week behind 3DS and at the current rate it will over take it anyway. also 3DS didnt have stock issues as I remember.

Shit thread, contain your autism fanboy. Japan doesn't reflect the rest of the world.
>>377154779
This much is true. I expect about 30 mil max.

>>377156221
I don't think the stock shortage is as bad in japan. That seems to be mainly a US problem. You can also find them fairly easily in Europe apart from a few countries.

>Shit thread, contain your autism fanboy. Japan doesn't reflect the rest of the world.
Specific sales figures are much harder to find for the rest of the world. We have NPD for US sales, but they're pretty slow, so they can't tell us anything about Switch's second month yet.
It is selling out worldwide though. You can't ask for more than that.

>>377154670
My guess would be that it's gonna get similiar sales to the 3ds because it's probably going to receive a portable only version (no base included for like 50/80 bucks less) when the sales start to slow considerably

>>377156814
If they do that I will personally go to Japan and shove my Switch squarely inside Shiggy's ass.
Fuck them and their revisions. Get it right the first time, you shit. Everyone else does.

>>377156735

>selling out

That is a meaningless metric. As you can make anything sell out by controlling the production/supply.

The question is will it be another DS -> 3DS drop? If so, is it because of Nintendo's fault, or simply because mobage have grown even bigger since 3DS?

I doubt the Switch is competing against PS4, since PS4's momentum shows no sign of slowing down at all.

The subject of the thread is about Japan, retard. Learn to contain your own autism

>>377156735
Then why make this pointless fucking thread and get hyped over nothing when the data you have is misleading you fucking retard?

Not only that, but even with your own data points, you see a very clear stagnation after the initial burst, yet you Assume that the Switch will continue down a linear path rather than the obvious logrithmic one for... some reason.

Use your fucking head for once.

Week over week

>>377156814
$80 less makes no sense when the dock is sold for $60.
At the very least they would sell it for $240, but more realistically $250.
However, not including the dock defeats the point of calling it Switch. I suppose there's still tabletop mode though.

>>377156727
It's worse in Japan, there are stores making lotteries to sell Switches, everything that is shipped is instantly sold there. The stock of MyNintendoStore for instance sells out in 10 minutes every time.

>>377157041
I don't get what you mean, what I'm suggesting is similiar to the 2ds, not the new 3ds. It would be like removing the gimmick to sell to people uninterested in it that would buy it with a good enough pricedrop.
It wouldn't really be a revision, just the same switch with less accessories.
>>377157938
sorry, got confused because here in Italy it's 330 € for the console and 90€ for the dock.
The name/gimmick is not really a problem, just look at the 2ds.

>>377157938
Let's be real. There's no fucking way the dock isn't being sold for 90% profit if not more.

>>377158603
Of course it's being sold for way more than it's worth, but why the fuck would they let people buy both separately for less?

The Switch costs around $250+ dollars to produce. It's not getting a revision anytime soon, if ever, and Dock is probably less than $20 dollars to produce, no sense in making a version without it.
