Braid creator says Anniversary Edition sales are “utterly terribly”
Posted on 4 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
While we don’t have any specifics, it seems that the sales of Braid: Anniversary Edition have been disappointing across all platforms. Jonathan Blow, the game’s creator, has gone on record multiple times with updates about the performance.
About a week after launch in the middle of May, Blow wasn’t entirely sure what to make of the game’s sales yet, and pointed out how things like discounts would eventually come into play. A little more than a month later though, he mentioned how Braid “sold horribly” and “the future is uncertain.” Moving on to July 21, Blow said sales of Braid: Anniversary Edition “have been terrible, they’ve been utterly terrible”. Similar statements were again made on July 27.

Europe’s best-selling games of June, first half of 2024
Posted on 5 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
GSD data provides a look at the best-selling games across Europe in June 2024 as well as the first half of 2024. It’s based on data for all physical game releases in major markets plus digital game sales from most major publishers.
For June specifically, Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD charted the highest out of new releases at #7, and that’s without digital data considered. Believe it or not, it was only 4,000 copies away from becoming the fastest-selling Switch game this year. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door still holds that record. Note that Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD sold just under a third of what Luigi’s Mansion 3 achieved during its opening week in 2019.
