That is the actual game.Is this the "Snack World" game or a mini spin off thing prior to release?

The local multiplayer push in general is rather low key so far. I guess Nintendo expects it to pick up steam naturally through word of mouth the more local multiplayer capable games are out.I think 2P Minecraft is actually low key the most important announcement for long-term switch momentum that I wasn't expecting.
That has potential, a lot of it.
What numbers do you think equates to "bomb"?

In terms of Splatoon - date is not surprising to anyone.
Going to be interesting in the inevitable Splatoon 2 vs DQ sales discussion.

Is Nintendo seriously dumping both Pikmin and Ever Oasis on the same day?
I imagine an e3 tournament and stress test would help it a lot much like splatoon.I'm still unsure of how Arms will do anywhere. I think the momentum of the Switch will help Arms more than Arms will help the momentum of the Switch.
I was hoping for a relatively fast Minecraft release, and it looks like Nintendo made good on that at least digitally.
My only other impression of the Direct was that Nintendo was clearing out the little announcements so that they wouldn't have to acknowledge them during the E3 Direct.
Splatoon 2 will win the marathon only if it becomes the next Monster Hunter.DQXI will win the 1st week sprint.
Splatoon 2 will win the marathon.
They do this double releases all the time.Is Nintendo seriously dumping both Pikmin and Ever Oasis on the same day?
It is on a portable now.Splatoon 2 will win the marathon only if it becomes the next Monster Hunter.
So not only they do this but they also do it all the time?They do this double releases all the time.

Splat 2 will eventually sell better than any individual version of DQ11 though combined DQ11 will probably wi
300K Launch
200K MK8 Deluxe Launch
500K Splatoon Launch
1 Million December
2 Million without even factoring anything besides Launch/MK8 Deluxe/Splatoon 2/December and I'm not even being especially bullish on the system. I mean just Splatoon 2 should guarantee 1.5 million in Sales being conservative.
Those are the top two games for 2017 but I think Splatoon 2 is going to be a top 5 game in 2018 and DQ11 doesn't have those types of tentacles
Anyhow the relaunch of the Switch for Japan has been scheduled and I expect the shipment for Splatoon 2/summer vacation to be much larger than the launch shipment.
It's gonna bomb everywhere and Nintendo will forget about it regardless.Ever Oasis on July 13th is weird, since it's releasing on June 23rd in EU/NA *shrugs*
450k for BOTW.
TP is not safe.
Oh true splatoon is the one with the tentacles but between the 3 versions i think we're looking at 3.6mil for DQ (2.1m 3ds, 900k ps4, 600k switch) i cant see splat2 reaching that, maybe 2.5 to 3m
You should not underestimate the biggest new IP making it's way to a handheld for the first time. I fully expect PokeGO type news stories coming about from people playing Splatoon 2 out in public, forming squads, recording the matches, self-organizing small tournaments etc.
And doing what with that footage.recording the matches

Fate Extella is just 180 yen cheaper than the PS4 version that came out last November, while Splatoon 2 is nearly 2000 yen cheaper than the original.
Maybe one of the reasons DQXI isn't coming out alongside the other versions is because SE wants the price of the carts to go down, Heroes I&II already uses the biggest carts and that game costs way too much, XI is 40GB on PS4 so it'd be huge on Switch either way, in order to get a similar profit margin as the other versions they'd need to price the game as a Super Famicom RPG for over 10.000 yen.
Has a new release ever caused a console to sell 500k in a week? Because I think such a prediction is absolutely insane.
I'm suggesting it could double its sales, but while your predictions are possible they pretty extreme

I don't think it's that frequent, especially for games on the same platform.

To my mind Nintendo has set things up pretty well up until Fall, especially in Japan:
Mario Kart- 4/28
Minecraft- 5/11 (digital)
ARMS- 6/16
Splatoon 7/21

I'm hoping his prediction meant 500k over a few weeks otherwis that is slightly insane
I don't want to keep picking fights with Noshten, but literally all of his predictions are possible but pretty extreme.
I am hoping he just means 500k in like a 4-5 week period surrounding Splatoon's launch, but I can't really tell.
It also depends though on stock levels and yeah nintendo will push a lot of extra stock for Splatoon 2's release but the system is still being sold by bloody raffles in many shops theres every chance they may be still selling everything they ship for the next couple of months so there probably wont be many (if any) already on the shelves to be bought
For the 4-5 week period after Splatoon 2 and summer vacation is underway I'd honestly expect that number to be to be closer to 700K. People will pay Y35,000 to get their new Splatoon machine and December 2015 showed that Splatoon with another title is able to get people to buy an unattractive device despite it's future(I believe they sold over 300K Wii U's). Switch is a lot more desirable product for the Japanese market especially with Splatoon 2 and Minecraft/Zelda/MK8D/Arms as secondary options.
People continue to underestimate Splatoon, despite what I think are signs that the game is trending to become the biggest game in Japan for the foreseeable future.
Is Minecraft on Switch going to be digital only in Japan?
