Sold or shipped? Impressive either way.

Edit: Shipped seemingly?

I find it unfortunate that was the bottom of the page in both threads.

So the Switch is basically set to sell more in its first year than Wii U did in its entire lifetime or am I reading it wrong?

Pretty much, it could get there.

Man, poor Wii U.

These numbers are always shipped.

[up]No they're not always. This is why you actually have to pay attention to what's said. Some companies like to use shipped numbers to inflate things, some just use sold because the numbers are good enough to have no reason to.

Nintendo's numbers on their site and in their quarterly reports are always shipped. They sometimes use sold-through numbers when doing PR or in their results briefing like with the Odyssey numbers, but Nintendo's easiest to access data is shipped.

I wish I could get excited about XC 2. It feels to me like a Fire Emblem Fates situation; I like the series, but this entry is just doubling down on the parts of previous entries that I didn't like at all.

I have a message from another time...

I did greatly enjoy Fire Emblem Fates, controversies and all, and the first Xenoblade captivated me. I hope Xenoblade Chronicles 2 can provide that same spark.

Just a reminder, Miiverse is ending in less than an hour.

I still don't get why they ended it. It was a perfectly good system if you ask me.

Moderating their own forum is a pain, and putting all this stuff on Twitter and Youtube gives Nintendo a ton of free marketing for overall less effort on their part.

Makes sense, there's always a Direct around that time, and it tends to be pretty big.

I'd argue it doesn't necessarily have to be "the next direct".

What should we expect from this one?

Think it's likely we'll get info on the Fire Emblem and Pokémon games for the Switch?

Oh God! Natural light!
