Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 25 Comments
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Switch sold quite well in its first week in Japan. Between September 7 and September 10, it sold about 24,000 copies.
Dengeki adds that Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 sold through 80 percent of its initial shipment. Indeed, that’s a high percentage. Bandai Namco previously said that the game was selling out in the country and more shipments will be carried out later in the month. The sell-through rate tells us that 30,000 copies were sent to stores for the initial batch.
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 will be out this coming week in North America and Europe. It’ll be interesting to see how the game does in the west.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 deactivates Switch’s screenshot function during cutscenes
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 17 Comments
It seems like Bandai Namco added a curious limitation to the Switch version of Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. The game deactivates the system’s share button during cutscenes, meaning you’re unable to take screenshots of those moments. This was presumably done to prevent spoilers from being spread on social media, but it seems like a strange decision given that the game has been out on other systems for a while now and isn’t exactly narrative-driven to begin with.
It remains to be seen if Bandai Namco will do the same with other Switch games in the future, and if other developers will follow their example.
