That's...pretty low. Then again there are so few switches around compared to other hanhelds I'm not sure if it was realistic to expect that much.

We need to see if it keeps selling like Splatoon has, I doubt itll match Splatoon's numbers but it looks like it might hit 2nd place which is pretty disgusting.

Splatoon is an online multiplayer game with content updates, what does Let's Go have, that would keep attracting new buyers? It hasn't even been a week and a lot of people already seem to be tired of it.

This is meaningless. 3ds games kept selling similar to one another during the lifetime of the console even if the userbase increased. This game just wasn't good enough to make pokèmon fans jump to the switch. On a positive side it was able to get some retard that doesn't even play videogames to buy the switch and that's quite an accomplishment.

Still probably making a huge profit. These games cost more than the usual 3DS games, plus they have the $50 Pokeball accessories, Switch bundles, and it doesn't even count digital sales.

Been saying that since the start you stupid cunt. Might work with MH, YKW, Digimon or any the lesser monster capture/battle games, but Pokémon does what it always does and picks up enough new initiates to cover its losses.

Normalizing this using percentage of console owners is not a good way to analyze, considering that the Switch has far less games than the 3DS had when X/Y came out.

The people pushing that are hypocrites anyway. Splatoon 2 has better 3 day sales than LGPE and came out July of last year, when the switch had roughly 1/5th of the users it does now. Of course that would make LGPE sales look bad and doesn’t fit their narrative.

It’s a shitty metric.

So watching streams, seeing what the game has to offer (in this case, not much!) and coming to a conclusion is not 'interaction'?
