Notes

  • Ghost Recon: Wildlands is the best ever Ghost Recon launch, and second best Tom Clancy launch after The Division.
  • In reference to franchises: "Zelda is the top-selling property of all time within the Adventure super genre, selling 54 percent more revenue than the next best-selling franchise, Resident Evil."
  • "Switch's packaged software sold 1.3m units, a record high for a Nintendo platform launch."
  • Mass Effect: Andromeda had the second best launch behind Mass Effect 3.
  • Horizon was the best Guerrilla debut ever, selling twice as much as their second best debut, Killzone 2.
  • 1-2 Switch made the top 20 best-selling games chart with an attach rate of 19 percent.
  • Starting next month, Microsoft's digital sales will be reflected in the software charts.
  • We'll get a full year to date chart soon, but Ghost Recon is #1 for the year, For Honor is #2, and Zelda is #3 combining Switch and Wii U versions.

Over a million? That would be crazy :o

Over a million? That would be crazy :o
It had a whole month. You guys are crazy thinking it sold 500k or 600k. It sold more than the Wii in its first week. And it had a whole month.

Honestly if it's sub 1 million then it's a huge flop in my book. PS4 sold 1 million in one day. This thing had a full month

Nintendo didn't have stock for 1 million in US... they probably shipped 2m this fiscal year WW.
