Wasn't from nowhere if you pay attention to Japan sales threads

Boost is actually lower than I'd hoped, the deal is pretty insane.

That's what I'm wondering? It broke records galore for switch games and the franchise, and it seems like it's week 2 is very dang strong. Maybe they are waiting for a 10 Million announcement lol.

Surely 5M in a few days is impressive enough! But yeah it is strange, maybe they're struggling to count all the sales.

NPD hardware leaks in around 22 hours?

For November though. This game has to be at least 6-7 Million by now sold to customer.

November 2018 NPD (U.S. Hardware) Predictions - Closes Tuesday, December 11th | ResetEra

Question at this point is if Smash can be your new number 1 biggest launch month ever for an exclusive. Not if it can beat Brawl"

As expected, Smash launch is huge in the US.

Cute Pikachu · Dec 14, 2018, 03:56 PM

To be honest I wouldn't be shocked if it did 4 Million with digital which should make it the biggest debut for an exclusive ever by far.

NPD wouldn't count that though. For it to be NPD number 1 it needs 3.3M physical (no bundles), which may be tough.
