RCMADIAX has given a small tease for another new project, though we won’t be seeing it for awhile. On Twitter today, the indie developer showed an image from “Project Fist” – a game tentatively slated for Wii U, New 3DS, and NX (we’ll have to see if all of those platforms stick). However, it won’t be ready until 2018.

Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games 3DS sold through 80% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 7 Comments
Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games debuted on 3DS in Japan on February 18. During its first week (through February 21), the game moved about 44,000 copies. Dengeki also reports that Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games sold through 80 percent of its initial shipment.
How does that stack up to the series’ last entry? We don’t have a sell-through rate for that one, but Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games sold 45,000 units in its first week before going on to sell 267,000 copies total. Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games seems to be on a similar trajectory.
