March has rolled out and April is rolling in, and with it all the lovely things of Spring: tulips, daffodils, bumblebees, pollen, etc. Today, that means new sales figures are available. From Famitsu, there's some surprising and not-so-surprising listings. Without further ado, let's get started.
The top selling video games software are, in order:
- Monster Hunter Double Cross- 1,270,332 copies sold
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - 307,621 copies sold
- Horizon Zero Dawn - 167,756 copies sold
- Ghost Recon Wild Lands - 139,873 copies sold
- 1-2-Switch - 138,790 copies sold
Hmm. Well, that's sure to stir up some controversy. Let's see how much more we can cause.
Top selling hardware sales, in order:
- Nintendo Switch
- PlayStation 4
- Nintendo 3DS
Top Video Game companies, in order
- Capcom
- Nintendo
- Square Enix
So. The Switch got top spot. I suppose it shouldn't be terribly surprising, it was launch month, that's kind of how things go. Good on Nintendo, even despite the "shortages" that Nintendo promised wouldn't happen.
