How did ARMS end up selling in the end? I know the playerbase isn't that great, but I heard it had a good launch.

I can't seem to find any numbers anywhere though.
>>
NPD reports 256k physical and digitally for US.

Media Create sales for Japan (physical) currently sit at 170k.

Europe sales don't have numbers though it did premier at 2nd place in its opening week being stopped by Horizon Zero Dawn, which had a large discount in the region when Arms launched.

Based on what we know, that brings ARMS to a respectable 426k, which is pretty phenominal for a new IP in the fighting game genre.
>>
It got outsold massively by both Tekken and Injustice 2 in NPD June. This despite the two mentioned competing against countless more games.

Who tf is Alex? I don't remember him in ARMS

This is the equivalent of saying Splatoon 1 got massively outsold by cod and bf/w.e in its launch year.

This is a new IP and it definitely didn't have the install base of PS4 + Xbones + PC(I bought tekken 7 for PC). That said thought splatoon 1 sold relatively better.

that's a mean thing to say?
>>
>>384990102
Tekken is nowhere near the prestige of cod, and it has sold well in a very long time so no especially considering the heavy advertising this game got.
>>
>>384989926
>A new fighting game on a system that's having production issues got outsold by games with a bigger install base
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES

I think ARMS is trash, but you're a fucking moron

Top selling fighting game series right now are SF, Injustice(Cause cape shit fans from other mediums), mortal kombat and Tekken.

And 2 of those did not launch this year. Obviously tekken but for this year its second to cape shit.
>>
>>384989926
You got that backwards, it sold better than both those combined.
>>
>>384990401
Tekken hasn't been a top selling franchise for a very long time like I said, hell blaze blue/guilty gear probably sold more than any tekken did until recently.

And like I said, this new ip had a lot of advertisements out for it, in addition to a sparse game lineup.
>>
>>384990443
tekken 7 sold almost 300k on PC alone.

That would be insane considering ASW's poorfaggotry. Guilty Gear Xrd sign got developed by a tiny 24 man team with daisuke once again co-doing everything from designing, directing to composing the game. I feel very confident that tekken 7 had a much larger team and budget considering all the advertising that was is around for tekken 7.


Blazblue is ASW's guilty gear reject supposedly only created because ASW was not allowed to make another GG entry at the time so I doubt that gets more love than the favorite.

Supposedly the guy said something pro trump and the blacks weren't too happy. Surprisingly for the blacks they had the overwhelming numbers.

Blazblue does do better than GG. Completely dominates Japanese arcades and has for years, even had more entrants than GG this year at EVO.
>>
>>384990659
It's just niggers being niggers
>>
>>384990884
BB get much more spin offs and side material than GG, as well as a higher presence in arcades

I love Arms, but I wish it had more game to it.

Is there a list with all the ARM status? I want to know which are the fastest

I just wish there was a way to play online with only the headlok head item. That shit is a blast.

Add more items or a mode like that and itll be enough for me. I want mechanica outside her suit though

>This was one of the first cases where an African American was "knocked out". The Justice Department subsequently charged Barrett with a hate crime, the only time the DOJ involved itself in prosecuting these attacks.

God damn

BB became more popular than GG and even when GG came back as Xrd, it couldn't compare.
