I really wanna see how much tomodachi sold, I’ve been having a blast with it
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream sell-through is over 3.8 million in 2 weeks after release. This isn’t sold I believed but shipped.
Nice. We need more tomodachi, hopefully new updates with new content
I am pretty sure it’s sold out on amazon still. I just downloaded it digitally and I have been having a lot of fun.
Dude… there are 71 MILLION Mario Kart 8 Deluxe copies out there… that’s absolutely insane to me. Mario Kart World at 15 million in under a year… jeez…
I forget how huge of a deal Mario Kart is in the world sometimes, to be honest.
Also, really happy to see Kirby Air Riders (my goat) doing so well. I wanna get all the amiibo I’m excited. So happy with this release, it might genuinely be my favorite on Switch 2. Which is A LOT considering Donkey Kong Bananza is here, too!!
I mean Mario kart world has been out for less then a year while 8 deluxe has been out for almost 10 years
I dont get these rankings at all. The top 12 seems right but then after that theres so much missing. Ring fit, several pokemon games, luigis mansion 3, the splatoon games, many mario games etc. sold WAY more than the bottom listed games here? So whats going on?
I made a mistake with the list. It’s now been revised with the best-selling games. My sincere apologies!
