Posted on 10 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
GSD data provides a look at the best-selling games across Europe in May 2024. It’s based on data for all physical game releases in major markets plus digital game sales from most major publishers.
A big release for the month was Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, which lands at #5. If Nintendo shared digital data, there’s a chance it could have charted higher.
GamesIndustry offers up a couple of comparison points. Sales are 8 percent lower compared with the opening two weeks of the Super Mario RPG remake. They were also down 8.5 percent compared to Paper Mario: The Origami King.
