For the nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Nintendo Switch hardware sold well following the launch and sales volume rose substantially during the holiday season. For the Nintendo Switch software, SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY was released in October and has been a big hit, with global sales reaching 9.07 million units. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, released in April, has sold 7.33 million units, and Splatoon 2, released in July, has sold 4.91 million units, bringing to 8 the total number of million-seller titles for this fiscal year including the titles of other software publishers. The result is that hardware sales during this period totaled 12.13 million units, and software sales volume totaled 47.10 million units.

Nintendo 3DS hardware sales did not weaken after the launch of Nintendo Switch. In fact, sales grew during the holiday season in the US. Sales volume was firm in other regions as well, with the total reaching 5.86 million units (9% decrease on a year-on-year basis).

For the Nintendo 3DS software, sales of Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, released in November, have grown to 7.17 million units, but overall software sales declined to 31.25 million units (33% decrease on a year-on-year basis).

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition, launched globally during September and October, proved to be a hit. We also expanded our amiibo lineup with new amiibo released simultaneously with software titles, pushing sales to approximately 9.30 million units for figure-type and approximately 5.00 million units for card-type.
In our download business, brisk download sales for Nintendo Switch helped push total download sales up to 43.1 billion yen (87% increase on a year-on-year basis).

In our smart-device business, consumers not only continued to enjoy Super Mario Run and Fire Emblem Heroes, which became available for download during the previous fiscal year, but also had fun with Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, released globally during October and November. Smart devices and IP related income were up to 29.1 billion yen (172% increase on a year-on-year basis).

Total sales reached 857.0 billion yen (of which overseas sales were 639.9 billion yen or 74.7% of the total sales). Operating profit came to 156.4 billion yen, ordinary profit was 194.5 billion yen, and profit attributable to owners of parent totaled 135.1 billion yen.

Major software titles due out for Nintendo Switch include Bayonetta 2, set for release in February, and Kirby Star Allies, coming in March, as well as major titles planned by other software publishers. We aim to broaden the platform’s user base by continuing to introduce compelling new software in addition to the stable of popular titles that already have been released.

For Nintendo 3DS, Detective Pikachu is due out in March. We will also work to leverage our installed hardware base to expand sales of evergreen titles.

In our smart-device business, we will focus on operations that encourage more consumers to continue to enjoy playing the applications that they have downloaded

Lo de Mario Odyssey me parece increíblemente impresionante, así como lo del hardware de Switch.

72 millones para 3DS no está nada mal, ha tenido un gran año contra todo pronóstico.

Los amiibos, SNES classic, Nintendo Labo... La racha que lleva Nintendo es impecable.

Yo más que pensar en el éxito de Switch pienso en el pedazo de fracaso que ha sido WiiU

Y lo que le queda, que estos juegos son de los atemporales con largas piernas. Mucha gente que compre la consola más adelante seguro que lo acaba comprando

Por eso me impresiona tanto, porque un juego con piernas infinitas ha vendido tan extremadamente bien en el corto plazo del lanzamiento. Es un juego que a la larga puede llegar perfectamente a los 25-30 millones.

Hay que ver las ventas de los juegos de WiiU. A nintendo realmente no le fue tan mal con la consola, porque los juegos vendieron realmente bien. El Wind Waker HD 2,25M es una pasada. Con el Mario Kart se han coronado. 7M en wiiU y otros 8 En Switch, que es casi "gratis" para ellos. Qué pasada.

No sé, hagamos un ARPG, una reestructuración de todo el concepto jugable. Que parece que no gusta ya la saga.

Ojala lo hicieran, solo para ver de que son capaces. Y al menos que para el proximo juego cambien el motor grafico.

A ver qué tienen en el E3 para finales de este año, porque tiene toda la pinta que Pokemon RPG, Bayonetta 3 y sobre todo Metroid Prime 4 se van a 2019. Me juego lo que sea a que como mínimo mínimo 2 de esos 3 no salen este año.

Por cierto, ¿The World Ends with you no sale en Japón?

5,86 millones de 3DS distribuidas entre el 1 de abril y el 31 de diciembre. Al final sí que van a llegar a vender la mitad de lo que vendió DS en total.

It 'still' prints money


And prints money again!!

Veo la comparación un tanto injusta para Wii U, al margen de que esta vendiese muy poco. Vale que Switch la están vendiendo como su sustituta, pero también lo está siendo de la 3DS. Al menos yo veo a Switch como una consola portátil mucho más que como una sobremesa, vamos me extrañaría muchísimo que Nintendo sacara otra portátil 'pura' para sustituir a 3DS.

Switch lleva mayor ritmo que Wii.
Mismo nivel de ventas que 3DS, pero sin rebaja masiva y costando el doble.
