The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wind surely helped sell some system, and Nintendo confirmed that it sold 1.3 million million copies of that game. 925,000 of those copies were on the Switch and 460,000 were sold on the Wii U.
That’s right, Nintendo had more than a 100 percent attach rate for Zelda on the Switch. That’s likely for people who were able to buy the game but couldn’t find the system in its first four weeks on the market.
Nintendo also notes that, in the U.S., the Switch is now its fastest-selling console ever and Zelda is the fastest-selling Nintendo launch game.
Zelda held its own notably against the massively hyped Horizons Zero Dawn, which had a paltry showing in its first month.
Overall
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* Mass Effect: Andromeda Horizon Zero Dawn* MLB 17: The Show* Grand Theft Auto V

Horizon sold more than Zelda

the facts are this, nintendo is still in a down trend and the switch sales are just going to drop off very soon
in the end, nintendo can't be salvaged with just a single game and their new console will continue to sell even less than previous generations.
at least we can still save our stolen bayonetta 2

normalfags respond to marketing. the fact that my mexi immigrant mom asked about the wii speaks volumes. nintendo got cocky, named it the wiiu, and then didnt market it. the switch had fucking super bowl ads

>nintendo cant be salvaged
Their stocks have consistently risen for the last 6 years, and they've already made a profit from the switch.

How do they compare to Sony stocks though? Pro tip: They can't.

You have to go back.

Actually they're entirely different businesses. Nintendo is undeniably doing very well as a company, and your poor attempt at comparison only shows your lack of knowledge on the subject.

I'm literally a progressive liberal false flagger. I just shitpost to alienate Hispanics from Trump/Republicans. See ya in the next thread where I'll deny who I am. Feels good to get this off my chest.

Do us all a favor. Stop parroting what you read on message forums and think for yourself. Armchair analysis is embarrassing.

you think just over a million copies is a lot? that's only a fifth of the population of wisconsin, isn't it?

When it gets and retains a flow of 3rd party titles, and when Nintendo decides to stop charging an enormous markup for a platform that costs 1/4th of its shelf price to produce I'll care. If the platform has success that's great, Breath of the wild is good but I'll never buy it on switch as I already have a WiiU, same with MK8.
As it is now I have next to zero reason to ever buy a switch, as all its doing is once again shitting on its old fans. If they really cared ports like MK8D would allow you to get a discount, and they wouldn't be charging for online for their servers which I can gaurantee you don't see a fraction of the stress or traffic enough to justify a pricetag to access it, especially not compared to Microsoft and Sony. If they decide to cater to their real core again who've been following them for decades now, at some point I'll give a fuck. As it is now Nintendo has done nothing but shit on the core that helped keep this gimmick shoveling IP spinoff slinging faggot company alive.
Fuck current day Nintendo, fuck the marketing agencies they hire to shill the switch, and fuck the fans.

>when Nintendo decides to stop charging an enormous markup for a platform that costs 1/4th of its shelf price The thing cost $274 to build according to some nip analyst that opened up the switch, that is without the overpriced stand and controllers, the system is well priced, everything else is not.
