Sony has dominated Europe since PS1. Nintendo nostalgia is practically non existent over here, I don't even know a single person who owns a Switch

>>383014049

Basically this, Europe got into game culture with PS1 and maybe only a handful had a SNES back in the day, people judge Nintendo games accordingly and fairly

>>383014049

I live in California and don't even know anybody who owns a Switch here.
Those who are even interested are saying they're going to wait another year or so anyway.

not true for the uk

SNES and N64 were both very popular, GCN was the start of the decline in popularity due to PS2 just being a juggernaut, Wii was obviously insanely popular but with the wrong people and for the wrong reasons, WiiU was literally dead as can be, and Switch is in its early days but seems to be more popular than WiiU (if it's lucky, it might reach GCN levels)

>>383014176

>>383014591

Of course they were popular, just saying Europe has always been a Playstation territory, except for the last generation which was bizarre as fuck

>>383014176
Yeah not even close, megadrive and snes were pretty popular back in the day, so no it didn't start with ps1, next time don't talk out of your ass

>>383014580
When the component shortage ends.

>why is PS so popular in europe?

because a) xbox is marketed towards an american audience and nintendo never really took off, so you dont have the nostalgia fags buying every new iteration of the typical nintendo games and b) football is really, really, really popular in pretty much every single EU country so FIFA sells insanely well.

>>383013363

>Splatoon sold more than Bloodborne on a console with a quarter of the install base

>>383015124
>one game sold more on one console than a completely different game on another
woah

>>383015124
Splatoon also sold more than any Souls game across PC, PS4, Xbone, PS3, 360

Souls is a niche series, despite its popularity on here. Splatoon did very impressive numbers, but that doesn't make Bloodborne's numbers any less impressive either.

>>383015207

I still don't understand how it go so popular anyway.

Looked like it was a joke that was gonna flop like crazy and it became a new IP out of the blue when nobody I knew (even those that owned the Wii U) bought it.

Was it the squid porn and pedophile catering?

>>383015501
>Bloodborne
>PS4's crown gem
not to the average person

explain how dark souls didn't sell upwards of 100m considering its on the biggest platform ever, PC
could it possibly be that its a niche fucking series? hmmm one wonders...

>>383015640
Splatoon did it impressive numbers...Bloodborne didn't.

>Fifa should make the money

Also nowhere I fucking implied that bloodborne sold shit, but it should perform much better.
HZD sold better, crash will sell better etc.

So now say to me with a fucking straight face that you didn´t wanted bloodborne to do much better.

>>bloodborne sells more than any souls game that came before it and has still sold more on one platform than any other single platform sales for souls

dark souls on pc is currently at 2.9 mio while bloodborne is on 2.77(vgchartz)

>>383016003
>more sales than any souls before it
>more sales on one platform than any other single platform sales of a souls

>>383013363
europe

>>383016105
Dark Souls has been on sale for $5 every other month.

>>383016105
why would i not want bloodborne to do better? of course i would, it could sell 10m and i'd still want it to do better

fyi vgchartz only tracks physical copies, so it is safe to say Bloodborne's digital+physical will surpass Dark Souls 2.9m on PC

>>383016367
>price now matters

so what? It´s an old game, way past the break even. Now that matters is "getting more people to it".

Also this was just because "no other souls game sold that much on a single plattform"

>>383016727
again, vgchartz is purely physical

it's safe to assume bloodborne sold more than 0.3m in digital considering its also been on sale pretty much every time PSN has one

>>383014176
This isn't true at all, quite trying to lie so the switch doesn't look so shit.

>>383016719
>>383016865
that´s ok maybe it also did it. But for now there is no "actual" proof.

Thing is bloodborne sold good, bloodborne broke break even. This is great, but it didn´t do hot cakes like splatoon e.g.

Also one thing that bloodborne is doing a little bit shit, is that bloodborne itself costs 17€ (physical), psn 30€ and old hunters costs 20€psn. Physical goty is rare and costs like 50.

>>383014986
The ps4 is destroying everyone in north america as well, what are you on?

>>383013363
Holy shit it's not even close, SONY ALWAYS WINS BABYYYYY

>>383016274
WOW it sold more than other games that didn't sell well

IMPRESSIVE

I'm sorry lad.

>>383017350
i didnt say it did do splatoon numbers desu
i said it did well, which it did

but it's funny to hear splatoon sales being called hotcakes when uncharted sold double it and it still gets shit for "muh attach rate"

>>383017901
>every game has to sell insane numbers
GTAV exists so i guess splatoon sold like shit huh

sorry lad :/

>>383018170
>but it's funny to hear splatoon sales being called hotcakes when uncharted sold double it and it still gets shit for "muh attach rate"

>inb4 nintenbro

but it is true. Attach rate is as important as sales. Here is a analogy for it, what is more impressive a sporty dude running 100m in 7 seconds (let´s just take this without real life comparisions) or a fat guy with only one leg doing the same in 14 seconds?

>>383018840
>attach rate is as important as sale
nope

U4 has shit attach rate and double Splatoon's sales
One's sales are called hotcakes, the other shit

>>383013482
It looks like the best Euro sales for that week were Injustice 2, Mario Kart, Overwatch, Zelda, and Street Fighter 2, so probably one of those.

>>383013482
Crash

>>383013363

People are noticing it's a literal zelda machine and that you can play zelda on the wii u or on PC. Typical nintendo gimmicky shit with zero third party support and only extremely sparse nintendo games of the same 30 year old franchises to look forward to.

>>383013482
>le ebin shortage meme

>>383019986

No, this data is from May but we will see a boost in June just for Crash, I'm sure of it. As well as a PS4 surge in Japan for Crash too in August

>>383013363
>>383020072
You fucking wish. The thing is that they can't up the production anymore right now, but the very second they do, they'll sell millions. Look at Splatoon 2, that's gonna sell obscenely well, it's gonna move millions of systems on its own, and it's not the biggest game they're launching this year.

>>383019512
And like I said both are important?

Splatoon did it good because new IP on a dying console still managed to sell good. (literally half of the install base)

UC4 sold 9 Mio which is pretty good, but that is only 1/6 of the installbase and is also a well known IP.

Both of them did good. Just if you compare the ps4 game sales. People talking it did shit etc. are consolewar posters and no one else.

Uncharted did great, Splatoon did great(especially in Japan) and has much more potential, which we now see with splatoon2

Basically true

>>383014591
In the UK, Nintendo has never been top dog.

The Master System outsold the NES.
The Mega Drive outsold the SNES.
The PS1 outsold the N64.
And so on...

>>383021791
What's the point of trying to peddle this? Literally everyone knows that the Switch is being held back by a parts war with Apple. Do you just enjoy roleplaying?

It already is different bro. Switch Sales didn't crash like the Wii U. Their sales trajectory is tracking pretty close to the Wii's. But you already knew this, you're just shitposting

>>383021932
yes yes and when is this "parts war" gonna end?

>>383022236
It will likely end once the iPhone 8 hits stores. Apple is in full production mode right now, but won't be forever. Also, as time goes on, the consistent demand for these parts will result in greater production.

I mean, this is basic economics, my dude. You'd have to be a literal nigger not to get it

>>383022215
Nintenbabies have nothing to play until Mario Odyssey comes out. I can't see the sales improving until then.

>>383022215
LOL No it isn't
>switch first month sales: 2.74 million (available worldwide)
>3ds first month sales: 3.61 million (available only in japan)
There's already a console that's selling as fast as the Wii it's called the PS4

>>383022474
We both know I'm right, I'm not gonna fight about this

>>383022446

But Fifa isn't a top seller in EU right now.

It's never in fucking stock.

>>383013482
PS has always dominated Xbox in Europe. PS4 has the "all my friends have it" factor because it had the lower price on launch.

>>383022718
If it's not FIFA, it's GTA.
If it's not GTA, it's Call of Duty.

I don't see them on the Switch.

You tell me why the Switch is selling less.

Does not help that is been confirmed that they been stockpiling Switches for Splatoon 2 release, add mnufacturing switches and easily you could add 50k+ on each continent.

>>383023856

I knew I would collect many (you)s

They weren't alive back then either so It's easy to see when they try to lie to make it appear as if someone cared about Nintendo back then in Europe

Pokemon soon in 2018-2019 And every poor soul know what will happen

>>383023850
They will release everything in July 21 including the bundles. They don't have other option this time. And Fuck you Apple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweden might be a small market comparably. But Nintendo always did well in Sweden.
Sweden was even the first region of Europe to get Club Nintendo due to the strong presence Nintendo had in the region.

>>383023638
They did though

In Japan

Meanwhile, it's widely available in Yurop yet still selling like shit, yet Japan which has high demand is selling half of Yurop.

Nah son. It'll boost during Splatoon, and then go back to 2nd place. Enjoy.

>>383028314
they still sell out everytime Nintendo lets a shipment out. This will continue through the holidays.

And despite this, they're still getting DOUBLED by PS4 every week.

It's only selling fast cause of loyalist fanboys. 13 million strong. What happens after anon? Where are the promised 3rd party exclusives? Where is Monster Hunter 5?
