This game is going to sell like Super Smash Brothers Ultimate and Mario Kart 8.

I don't understand why Nintendo does not have hundreds of retail stores along the line of their store in New York. Imagine how many plush toys and T-shirts and mugs they could sell, along with video game hardware and software, of course!

I think that we can probably say that as of May 1, the Switch has caught up to the PS4 in sales in Japan. Every week from now until the introduction of the PS5 will see that lead grow. Nintendo is predicting 18 million Switch unit sales for the year ending March 31 2020. I think that if we at least get the $199 Switch mini by this summer or Fall, then they will sell way more than 18 million units this year.

"We have no plans"........Those are the key 4 words. He didn't say that they would not announce new hardware at E3. He merely said that at present, there are no plans. Normally that phrase is code for saying that we do not want to disclose our future plans right now.

I bought this on Steam some years ago and I really liked it. I think that it is fantastic that it is being ported over to the Switch. The destruction physics is really well done.

Jedi Fallen Order uses the Unreal Engine 4, so I've got to think that it could be ported to Switch if EA wanted to do that. I'd bet money that Panic Button could take just about any game running on Unreal Engine 4 and make a good port for Switch.

I'd rather have on Switch that new single player Star Wars game called Fallen Order that Respawn is releasing in November for PC, XB1 abd PS4.

This is stupid. If Nintendo sales and profits will ever be impacted by competition from a Google streaming service which may never catch on, then it will be a long long time from now. Exclusive content is what you need, and Nintendo has great franchises with a loyal fanbase.

@Tibob Brilliant Idea. We absolutely need PilotWings, 1080, and Wave Race remade/remastered for Switch. Those are 3 great games.

@robr Thank you for your answer. Much appreciated.

Would this contoller work well with games such as Hollow Knight which do not require dual sticks?

I like how the soldiers collapse and fall down after they are shot. This looks pretty darn good for a game made by one person!

Does anyone know how Hollow Knight sold on Switch compared to PC, XBox and PS4?

The delay is fine so long as they port the Metroid Prime Trilogy and other games in the Metroid series over to Switch.

Just give us a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD on Switch this year, ok? Then you can take all the time you need to get a good Metroid Prime 4 out.

@Likethepear I've got Hollow Knight and Into the Breach, and those 2 games are most definitely not "Indie garbage". I think that the Switch has a fantastic game library--both first party, big third party games and Indie 3rd party games.

This is a great comment thread on the subject of Switch console sales numbers for the year ending March 31, 2019. You guys are knowledgeable and intelligent and polite. That's rare for the internet!

I will probably get this for Star Raiders 5200. I used to play Star Raiders for many hours on my Atari 800 home computer. I also used to enjoy centipede, missile command and asteroids, of course.
