Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Circana has released a listing of the top ten best-selling games in the U.S. for the month of April 2023.
A few new games make their first appearance, including Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection which cracks the top ten. Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle also made the list, as did Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp – the latter of which doesn’t include digital sales and could have charted higher.
Here’s a look at the complete list of best-selling games in the U.S. for April 2023:

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sold over ten million copies worldwide in its first three days, Nintendo has announced. It’s the fastest-selling game in the history of the Legend of Zelda series.
Also revealed today is that over four million copies were sold alone in the Americas. It’s the fastest-selling Switch game and the fastest-selling Nintendo game for any system in that territory. The same goes for Europe as well.
France: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sells 500,000 copies in its first week

Another tidbit has been shared about the debut sales for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, this time for France. We’re hearing that the game sold roughly 500,000 copies in its first week. Keep in mind that’s only based on physical – Nintendo doesn’t report digital data.
Putting Zelda’s sales into perspective, it sold more than Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet did at release. It also outperformed the launches of Red Dead Redemption II and the latest FIFAs, which have been popular in the region.

UK: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom biggest boxed release of the year, already eighth biggest Zelda game ever
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Some initial tidbits have surfaced about The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s sales performance in the UK, and the game is off to what sounds like a fantastic start.
Tears of the Kingdom is already the eighth biggest Zelda game of all time having already outsold Skyward Sword, The Wind Waker, and A Link Between Worlds. Note that this is based purely on boxed sales – digital data from Nintendo is not reported. Had digital been factored in, the debut for Tears of the Kingdom could be even higher.
