>Note that due to the nature of the graph (unlicensed), franchises like Dragon Ball and One Piece aren’t represented. Super Smash Bros. also isn’t here, but the graph mainly isn’t focusing on characters from non-fighting games.

>People buying a shitty hardware with no games.
>Desperately buying every new game.

I'm honestly not surprised that it sold well in Japan, my question is whether people will keep playing.

>>381765885
End thyself.

Don't worry. It has no streamers, razor thin playerbase online, barely any porn, and it'll be buried by Splatoon in a month.

Dumb cross poster.

No

>>381765656
I didn't really enjoy ARMS enough to make it a worthy purchase for me because I feel like it lacks depth and longevity, but it's definitely something fresh and it's good to see it doing alright at least.

However ARMS' launch numbers in Japan will absolutely pale compared to Splatoon 2.

>>381765656
I think the game was worth it but I won't buy ARMS 2 if it comes out. Basically it's a fun experiment but I don't think it's as great as Smash, Mario Kart or Splatoon. I think it's great that Nintendo makes new IP now but I'd rather have them something else.

>A casual 3D fighter on a system with barely any games full of thirsty costumers sold more than 2D fighters that compete with each other for sales in already crowded systems full of other games

WOAH!
Looking at this pic I REALLY can't tell you why a game like GuiltyGear Xed Rev2 didn't sell as well as ARMS.

Normies are attracted to casual games. In other news, shit stinks.

What a waste. Should have put that money towards a good game.

>>381766565
what's the game on the bottom between miku and kingdom hearts

>>381766498
It's way better than Splatoon was at launch.

>>381766565
Because it's not as good as ARMS. Traditional fighting games just aren't good and they will never be loved. Get over it.

>>381765696
I think Jojo ASB has the highest first week sales for a fighter in japan.

>>381765656

>It's the best if you add all these conditions!

>>381770446
Yes, all two of them.

>non-licensed fighting game
>opening weekend

Sure are some strict stipulations

I wouldn't have bought it if I had known it didn't have a fucking license

>>381768425
lol

>>381766597
They all played themselves.

>>381771180
License for what?

>Nintendo fan making a thread about sales
Should nintendo fandom be considered a mental illness at this point?
