Nintendo has cuts its annual profit forecast by 10% as Nintendo Switch sales slow, but software sales for Nintendo’s current console remain solid. The Kyoto-based company has updated its software sales list revealing the best-selling games on the system since it launched in March 2017. The best-selling video game on the Nintendo Switch remains Mario Kart 8 Deluxe by a fairly substantial margin.

If those same games that released recently on Switch has released about 2-3 years ago, they would have sold double the copies. It is pretty clear that the hype around Switch is dying and Nintendo do need to get that next console out quickly or I fear they’re going to have severe negative momentum going into its launch.
It also is an indicator that the Xenoblade Chronicles X port is sadly probably going to underperform what it deserves to as well.
Yeah, they should have totally released all these games when the Switch launched and they’d have sold so many.
The games take time to develop and some of them are developed by the same people, so they can’t make so many games in a shorter period.
The switch was such an incredible consoles when it comes to games, too bad the pokèmon games are fucking horrid
Ngl, I’m a bit disappointed by TTYD remake’s sales. I was really hoping it would outsell Origami King. Oh well. OK was ok, and if the next game is more in line with the original two games I’ll buy it. If not, then I won’t. No malice from me- I just hope for good games even those that I personally won’t play.
