Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
In a Reddit AMA held today, D-Pad Studios commented on the performance of Owlboy on Switch. While we don’t have specific numbers, the team is very happy with the results thus far. The game managed to turn a profit within just 24 hours of its launch on Nintendo’s console, which took D-Pad “by complete surprise”. The success bodes well for funding future projects, according to co-CEO Jo-Remi Madsen.
Owlboy released on the Switch eShop back in February. A special limited edition will arrive in July.

First week sales for the Switch version of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze were reported from Japan this week. Between April 29 and May 3, the game sold nearly 90,000 copies.
That’s a significant increase compared to the original 2014 release. On Wii U, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold just 35,000 copies in its first week.
The sell-through rate is also more favorable. The game sold through 65% of its initial shipment on Switch, according to Dengeki. In contrast, the Wii U version had a sell-through rate of just 35%.

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Capcom reported its financial results today for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. As the company has said in previous reports, its original Switch games sold well. Monster Hunter XX and Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers both “enjoyed hit status”.
In November, Capcom confirmed that Ultra Street Fighter II had shipped 500,000 copies worldwide. Monster Hunter XX managed to exceed shipments of 350,000 units.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze’s debut sales on Switch in the UK were 53.7% higher than Wii U
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
It’s unclear just how much Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold during its first week in the UK. However, we do know that it was towards the top of the charts.
GamesIndustry adds that the new Switch version “already accounts for nearly 17% of the total number of copies the game has sold in the UK (physical units only). Week one sales of the Switch version were 53.7% higher than week one sales of the Wii U version (although Switch does have a considerably higher install base).”
We should have an idea as to how Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze performed on Switch in Japan this week. As for the US, we’ll need to wait for next month’s NPD report.
