>>45048334>first replyYeah, we really will have to just wait and see. Frankly, on the subject of dex cuts I 100% believe the "leak" that they simply fucked it up and fully intend to bring everyone back later. If gen IX rolls around and they don't, that's when I'm gonna just drop out.
>second replyI think the most objective measure of popularity is in units sold, personally. Of course that'll still get skewed by things like food products which people will buy more of, but it's still better than going by pure currency moved, IMO.
>third replyYeah, fuck all the greedy cunts pushing prices up to seventy fucking dollars. Switch games are still sixty, though.Yeah, as for plushies, I was just listing the huge ones as an example. Perhaps a better example would have been toys, most of those will take up more space and weigh more than games, too.
>fourth replyIt scares me that the mobile trash might supplant the mainline games one day.
>Disregarding the fact that I still don' think we should count it this way, I'm sure the TCG has surpassed those numbers in set sales, at least at one point. The biggest barrier would be how to separate said sets, per gen, per deck, whatever. It doesn't help that it's always counted by number of cards sol rather than the deck their sold in, which is obviously going to trounce the VG market in any context in a battle of pure numbers, so it really does not count.TCG is indeed complicated. Even accounting for the many different forms in which card sets are sold, there's still the fact that players will go back and buy up a bunch.
