That's not that impressive then. Thought it was much bigger.
Ah thanks. Same number of total units. Much less Switch numbers. Xbox and PS eating into its pie. Impressive Xbox numbers there too.
Inflation does not exist.
so it's not clear what's happening here with shipments.
All I see in your post are corporate excuses. Which is fine, but I don't think we should fault anyone for being disappointed in Nintendo's pricing. If other companies can have sales on Black Friday then Nintendo can have sales on Black Friday. MS just sold the Series S for $250. The fact is the Switch is almost 6 year old hardware. If Nintendo hasn't figured out how to cut down on hardware costs or how to recoup costs in other ways to provide discounts for their customers that's on them. I don't have to be buddy buddy and kiss their butt just because I'm a nintendo fan. I already said I'm a Nintendo fan and love their games lol.
I know I complain about almost everything under the sun, but I just signed up for Nintendo's DLC Expansion subscription. I'll be playing all of the new mario kart 8 tracks too. I'm actually looking forward to going back and playing through a bunch of retro games as well. Super Mario World, Super Metroid (never played through before), and Ocarina of TIme and Mario 64.
Yeah was going to post this but wasn't sure whether I deserved a different thread.
Impossible to reach.
Cheers for the insights, knew UK was down compared to previous BF periods but wasn't sure how much.
GTAV would like a word.
Why are you making excuses for PS5? Amazon, Game, Argos, Smiths had PS5 in stock all week. No way Sony would only have 25k PS5 consoles avaliable in the UK, expecially on the most demanding week.PS5 sales were not strong, reports claimed that it was poorly or not restocked in the UK over the week.
At the same time in the same week they sold over 50k consoles in Japan
Maybe the full month results can give us a better picture, that is if they had strong shipments throughout the whole month because of God of War so there wasn't a single huge shipment for BK week or if they're shipping everything to the US or if shipments simply are not good enough.
actually the same thing happened with gamecube(if we can let virtual boy slip)->wiiNintendo went from Wii U being a miserable flop, everybody saying they’re finished, to what will likely end up as the most successful console of all time. And it’s damn near entirely carried by their first party output.

Not getting touchy just pointing out the very specific circumstances of the Wii and DS, which often get overlooked when people focus purely on their combined sales numbers, then try to compare it to other situations.
