I said they were going to sell more than Diamond and Pearl back in November and even the retards that like the game said I was trolling. The best selling games are usually trash.

LGPE performed better than 3rd versions but sub-par for remakes, while SWSH sold on-par for a new mainline.
You could find this alarming but you have to remember the prevalence of the Switch. In a way, you would have expected it to sell more if it was indeed an average quality game.
Nevertheless, it sold more than it should have.

These numbers are pretty abysmal all around. The highest selling game is only 25 million units, there are 4 tiers with two 5 million unit gaps, and the lowest of the Top 10 only sold not even 7 million units.

The Switch is by no means a wild success.

Mario Kart always outsells Pokémon and NSMB was top-selling title of DS with DP in 5th behind brain training MK and nintendogs.
And Zelda's been out for 3 years, it's legs have grown short, compared to Pokémon which has another 2 years at least to sell on.

Read the thread we went through. There's an anon that insisted AC would run around 25 million and wipe the floor with Pokemon. This is me showing that isn't the case with the best numbers it can be given. AC doesn't have the legs or the foot-to-foot launch sales of SwSh. I'm not making this out to be bigger than it is.

You also realize that Animal Crossing launched in a period where entertainment products have skyrocketed in demand, right? You realize that Animal Crossing is also Nintendo's only major release of the year, right? And that it sold over 3 million less than SwSh did in 45 days when it had 56 days?

You might be missing something, but nothing you've said is wrong. SWSH did end up doing better by far in the overall comparative timespan. It's just that AC:NH did the highest sales volume in an arbitrarily short span. It was the fastest selling launch on the Switch, somewhere withing the threshold of its first 11 days.

So, in short, it exploded on its launch week but then fizzled out really quick. That's what I'm getting if both statements about its massive initial launch but "only" 13.41 million in six weeks figures are both accurate.

I'm not pretending it was a failure but it's not this huge success SWSH faggots will try to make it out to be either.
It has overperformed as a clear technical failure but underperformed as a flagship Pokemon title, considering the circumstances.

In Japan and the UK (I think). Nintendo of Europe and Nintendo of America didn't come out and say it was the fastest-selling overall in those territories however, much less did it outperform Pokémon's first week of 6m worldwide (or again, they'd have mentioned it on their twitter feeds).

Except doing so means they sell their own hardware, instead of contributing to a competitor's success. It's like you don't understand the concept of exclusivity - you don't just *give* it to any old fucker, you make them want to buy in. If they don't want to buy in, there's plenty who will want to.

Mainline Poekmon games prior to LGPE haven't faced standard console MSRP. It's been a common complaint. The price also mean greater profit with lower sales.
