Animal Crossing: New Horizons sold 1.88 million retail copies in first three days in Japan

The profit margins must make Sony and Microsoft blush.

also note, this is probably gonna be the biggest opening week for a video game ever in Japan, accounting for digital sales

Everyone quarantined, new shiny game to tide over. Pokémon also brought in a ton of new switch owners before it. Hype hype hype, it’s the perfect storm.

One of the best exclusive launches. When will we see WW sales?

Pokefags and AC haters BTFO
>It can’t outsell pokemon, one of the biggest game IPs ever!
Looks like AC is the new king then

So the peak of gaming right now is a tranny dressup simulator? Truly speaks for the future of mankind

Im so fucking furious mus. Not a single one of those sales count; this is a fucking pandemic and people don’t have anything better to do than play shit Nintendo games like this. Just because Animal Crossing was released during the peak of the pandemic doesn’t mean it deserves to top sales charts. Games should be recognized for it’s merits, not its release date and Animal Crossing is literally a faggot tranny simulator with no gameplay at all.

You need to work harder on your bait user. You get more responses when you keep it more subtle

Japan doesn’t even have a quarantine right now. Nothing is shut down.

Shut the fuck up I don’t give a shit about your opinion

Stop crying. I feel bad for you incelbros.

>The pandemic barely affects Japan
>If you claim it does, these are PHYSICAL sales DURING A PANDEMIC
Seethe harder

No idea why I even replied to this shit thread, Simptendies are so masturbatory you literally all sound exactly the fucking same

>seethe

I wonder if social distancing boosted or hurt sales of the game.

Imagine being mad over people saying you're mad.

the japanese commercials are pretty perfect. They marketed towards the right target demographic, and did it flawlessly

im just saying, games with good gameplay > casual farmville-esque games

I'm genuinely curious why nobody else is trying to capitalise on this market. What's the point in making another AAA cinematic over the shoulder action game when you can make Animal Crossing for 10% the budget?

Using the Pole to jump over the Rivers keeps making me think of Zelda 1.

Now I can't get out of my head how you could recreate Zelda 1 with these games assets and play animal crossing in hyrule while occasionally finding dungeons.

Indies just started coping Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons, only a matter of time before they move on to copying AC.

>faggot tranny simulator
This game has probably already sold more copies than there are trannies in the world and I sincerely hope that pisses you off.

They do, just not the one's from the West.

Animal Crossing has always been on par with Pokémon in Japan. New Leaf sold around four million there like X/Y and Sun/Moon, but noticeably less worldwide (12 million vs. 16 million).

NOOOOOOOOO
THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO GO BROKE FOR BEING WOKE!!!!!

Not to mention Pokemon is a franchise that sells millions in Japan year after year after year.

>2019: Sword/Shield
>2018: Let's Go
>2017: Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon
>2016: Sun/Moon

Etc.

Animal Crossing... not so much.

what else are they going to play?

they don't use PCs in japan for games.

>tfw one of the few that don't "get" AC
I'm getting hit with a bit of FOMO honestly, but I know I'd probably regret the purchase

that's because they're nothing alike

We all thought Pokemon was gonna be the system seller, but Jesus Christ. It's going end up only second to Mario Kart worldwide isn't it?

If Nintendo release a proper new 2D Mario I think it would beat Smash and AC.

Eh, maybe, maybe not. I couldn't get it on the launch of New Leaf either. Then I bought the game and ended up playing about an hour and a half every night after coming home from college.
It really helped me unwind and get through some rough times. Sometimes you just want 30 minutes of chill and that's what Animal Crossing is there for. Give it a try if you have some bucks to spare, I guess.

BASED Nintendo showing shitfreak how its done.

test

Bro Animal Crossing potentially just had the biggest debut for any game ever in Japan with digital sales. Fucking EVER. The only reason I'm co fident AC wont be the best selling Switch game overall is because of the stupid numbers Mario Kart pushes.

you are the definition of SEETHING right now haha holy shit
