Gamekult has a new interview up with Nintendo France’s Philippe Lavoue. Among other things, Lavoue discussed sales expectations for Switch.

So far, Nintendo is seeing pre-orders similar to those of Wii in France. The company also expects to sell 800,000 units this year, which would be the lifetime sales of Wii U. That includes 95,000 units on day one with a near 100 percent conversion rate with Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Gray is currently more popular than the neon option at the moment. However, Lavoue thinks things will ultimately shift in the opposite direction.

This week’s Famitsu review scores are as follows:

Horizon: Zero Dawn (PS4) – 9/9/9/9
Subara City (3DS) – 9/8/8/8
Winning Post 8 2017 (PS4/PS3/PSV) – 8/8/8/8
Doraemon the Movie: Nobita no Nankyoku Kachikochi Daibouken (3DS) – 8/7/8/6

Pokémon Shuffle’s weekly update is here, with the main highlight being a Mega Competition, in which players can potentially win a Meteorite (able to Mega-evolve Rayquaza to Mega-Rayquaza).
