Who is planning on getting DNF Duel for the Nintendo Switch?

Also, imagine if we get Tekken 1-5 as a collection for the Nintendo Switch

I'm eager for DNF Duel. I would have preferred Guilty Gear Strive, but I'll take DNF Duel as a backup. I'm a fan of Arcsystemworks, so I usually purchased whatever they're involved with. The DNF property is neither here-nor-there with me. I played a bit of the gimped Xbox 360 version back in the day, that's about it though.

I'm getting it simply because ASW and I have an Arcade stick.

But I don't expect I'll spend much time with it.

@JaxonH Great news: Bayonetta 3 did 1.04 million by the end of 2022 according to Nintendo's financial results.

Switch is at 122.55 million units. Officially past PS4 and GB/GBC.

Does anyone know how much sparks of hope has sold? I cant seem to find it anywhere on the wikipedia list.

Hope you're having a good day.

@chapuH It's a Ubisoft release so it wouldn't be apart of Nintendo's sales figures they have just released. You will have to wait on Ubisoft's next financial releases.

@jump Thanks! I'm interested to see to what extent the game has "underperformed", as Ubisoft put it.

Hope you're having a good day.

@IceClimbers
Bayonetta 3 already smashing through 1 million units is fantastic! That means it's going to outperform Astral Chain, and as far as Platinum Games releases are concerned, makes it one of their best sellers to date.

122.5 million Switches sold... I can still hear that goomba in the comment sections echoing in my ear, "Switch is gonna flop harder than Wii U- worst idea ever, Nintendo doesn't know what ppl want, as soon as the Nintendo faithful finish buying one sales will fall off a cliff"

Funny, haven't seen them show their face around here for several years now.

@JaxonH Honestly the only time I had any doubt about the Nintendo Switch after the reveal was in that January presentation, when they revealed the pricing of everything.

At the time, the pricing of £279.99 for the system and £69.99 for the joy-con seemed quite steep (tbf I was between jobs so that also probably altered my perception). But now seeing the prices of the competition, and that Nintendo have managed to shift so many units without any significant price drop...yeah, I was wrong on that one.

It's all down to the core concept and how much it resonates with people. Nintendo have a winner here --- another Gameboy/DS, imo --- and it's showing.

@JaxonH Remember the Polygon article about them saying MK8 would be the worst selling MK. That was disproven so much such that now MK8 is the 2nd best selling Nintendo game of all time (1st is Wii Sports and I think there's a chance MK8 could overtake it if there's a 2nd Booster Course Pass in 2024 instead of a new game).

Ya, but this was on another level. Like, 95% of people, when asked if they think Switch would succeed, were saying, "not a chance in hell" or "definitely not" or "not without a massive price drop", etc.

For your viewing pleasure, I submit to you this thread for a retrospective look at the 2017 takes going around, and this was the general sentiment pretty much everywhere, including PushSquare and even much of NintendoLife:
