glad to see lego do so well. i like that these games exist as it is one of the very few kid appropriate franchises on the playstation/xbox. we need more games like these.

Pretty amazing how almost every studio had a megahit during ps4.

PS5 stock levels jumped by 56% in August (compared with July) in the UK, which means that Sony's console has overtaken the Switch to become 2022's best-selling console (so far)

News Release : Sep. 12, 2022 "Domestic sales of Splatoon 3 for Nintendo Switch surpass 3.45 million in first three days"

Splatoon 3 sold 3.45 million in 3 days in just Japan.

Which is insane. Even the biggest Sony games are lucky to get that worldwide.

I think Splatoon has become a Nintendo megafranchise like pokemon and mario kart.

Which is crazy. It looked like such a small time filler when they built their E3 around it.

i just don't get it. re-watched some gameplay just to see if i don't remember what i think i remember...

i agree with the quote in the middle of the video.... "this is tedious"

It's not just Spider-Man. Here's how four PlayStation games shot up the U.S. sales charts when they were ported to PC

Of course they will jump up on rank when its releasing on PC.

But their softwares PC numbers are still relatively low. They don't launch that high, and while they do have legs, they arent particularly high yet. Selling 1-3 million is good. But there is still a lot of growth possible on the pc market.

Lots of reports of improved PS5 supply in the past few months, but no data until now. Import data into the US confirms that Sony Interactive (PlayStation) shipments in Sept were +400% YoY. Yes you read that right. Some of that will go into inventory for GoW launch for sure. #PS5 pic.twitter.com/SvC6xTPQxs
