I thought this was going to be another Codename Steam and although it's not Splatoon tier yet it's getting there. The question is why? Every Nintendo title and most titles released on the Switch have all been smash hits. The game is fun but not worth 60$. Is it fun enough for 1 Million people or was it at the right place at the right time?

you are just not what nintendo wants as a customer
they want a new people, not the same old nintendofags, they want rich people that play for 10 minutes in a day

It's a combination of the games accesibilty to the wii sports crowd and the fact that it was the biggest release in a long drought since Mario kart. That being said I'm really enjoying it still, often playing it instead of splatoon

its the overwatch of fighting games

Mechanica won the first major Japanese Tournament
Byte and Bark were in the finals of the first major American tournament

Rank 16+ is full of everybody but Master Mummy

Which character are you talking about? Mummy? All they have to do is buff his self-heal and he'll be cancer like the rest of them

Dont worry Anon, I know capcom will fix Street Fighter V.. eventually, maybe

Codename Steam would have broke a mil if released on the Switch in the past year.

>>385391639
crash is a good game, most of ps4 owners never played the original
>>
>they're not releasing Smash 4 port or Smash 5 because it will interfere with this games sales
fuck off
>>
>System has no exclusives
>Nintendo puts an exclusive on it
>It sells

It could have been the worst game they released in three years and it still would have sold decently.
>>
>>385391639
What's wrong with crash? The remaster is fantastic and a pretty good deal since it's only $20 more than buying the originals on the playstation store.

>New IP on a new system
>Released at a time when the Switch had very few big games
>At the time it was the only big release that wasn't a port
>Showed it off with people getting good impressions of it creating positive word of mouth
>The Testpunch which allowed people to try it and see for themselves that it's good
>The tournaments to promote it further
>Twintelle

Gee, I wonder why it did so well?

Great marketing plus you forgot children exist as a demographic alongside your own.
Mostly the great marketing though, hell I almost bought it even though the concept doesn't interest me at all.
