The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening sold around 140,000 copies in its first week in Japan. According to Dengeki, the game sold through 60 percent of its initial shipment.
Dengeki examined the game’s sales closer by comparing the debut of Link’s Awakening to Breath of the Wild. The latter Zelda title sold 204,000 copies in its first week before going on to sell over 1.22 million units overall (and counting). Like that game, Link’s Awakening could maintain long-term sales.

[Review] Devil May Cry 2
Posted on 5 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Switch eShop | 0 comments
System: Switch (eShop)
Release date: September 19, 2019
Developer: Capcom
Publisher: Capcom
The second installment of the long-running Devil May Cry series makes its way to Switch in high-definition following Capcom’s port of the first entry earlier this year and sees Dante return to eradicate demons on the land. Devil May Cry 2 has always been the controversial black sheep of the series because of how drastically different it was before becoming more true-to-form in its highly-praised sequel, Devil May Cry 3. While a lot of fans don’t particularly look back fondly on the second installment, it’s worth mentioning that despite its flaws it is still an important part to the overall legacy of Dante and what Devil May Cry as a whole would ultimately become today. Devil May Cry 2’s impact is so fascinating to me because despite how it may be critically, everything surrounding its development and what ended up on our TVs back in 2003 paved a way for a series that was still evolving, and it was a learning experience that took sacrifices and risks – for better or for worse.
