SteamWorld Dig 2 sales off to a very strong start on Switch
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 6 Comments
SteamWorld Dig 2 has only been out for a few days, so it’s tough to make too much out of the game’s sales thus far. But with that said, it seems Image & Form is very happy with its performance thus far.
When one fan asked about SteamWorld Dig 2’s sales on Twitter, the developer responded:
I can't (or won't, doesn't matter) divulge actual figures, but #SWD2 has started way, way better than both the original Dig and SW Heist. ->

-> We have seen only the first-day sales on Switch… when we first saw the figures, we were sure we were reading them incorrectly. But…!!

This is definitely encouraging to hear. Hopefully SteamWorld Dig 2 continues to sell in the weeks and months to come.

Metroid: Samus Returns sold through 70% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 34 Comments
Metroid: Samus Returns sold roughly 30,000 copies in its first week in Japan. That may not seem like a lot, but it doesn’t tell the full story.
Dengeki reports that Metroid: Samus Returns sold through 70 percent of its initial shipment. That number gives us an indication that Nintendo was smart with the amount of copies it sent out to retailers.
Metroid has never been a huge seller in Japan. However, Samus Returns did pretty well all things considered. Here’s how it stacks up to other entries in the series:

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Switch sold through 80% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 8 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.
