UK sales for January 2018 – Nintendo leads software market share
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Switch | 0 comments
New sales data is in from the UK for the month of January.
GamesIndustry reports that there was an increase in physical games sold last month compared to the same period the year prior. 1.25 million boxed games were sold, up slightly from the 1.24 million boxed games sold in January 2017. Revenue also rose year-over-year from £35 million to £37 million.
Nintendo is credited for the rise in performance, which makes sense given how Switch wasn’t around in January 2017. The Big N held a 9% share of the software market at that point, but in January 2018, rose to 13.6% and was the top games company in the UK in terms of physical sales.

Puyo Puyo Tetris nearing one million copies sold worldwide on Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 16 Comments
Puyo Puyo Tetris is closing in on one million copies sold worldwide on Switch, SEGA has announced. Series producer Mizuki Hosoyamada shared the news during a Puyo Puyo Anniversary TV Show 2018 broadcast earlier today.
Unfortunately, the broadcast itself wasn’t too exciting. SEGA showed off its mobile game Puyo Puyo Quest, but there really wasn’t much new for fans of the series.
