Especially Animal Crossing, what the hell.

I like how RFA is apparently the Dark Souls of exercise games, pardon the expression. Not in game design so much as how strenuous the exercise is.

It was always a high selling series, both Wild World and New Leaf sold around 12 million each. Throw in that it was released just as the lockdown began and people needed something to play and it was a perfect recipe.

Wii Sport and Wii Play (for an extra controller) probably inflated that. Here's the number of games per console.

Gamecube - 9.59
Wii - 9.07
NES - 8.08
SNES - 7.72
Wii U - 7.63
Switch - 7.33
Nintendo 64 - 6.83

Gamecube did very well in terms of software sales.

It's still wild to me that Nintendo's worst console was their best selling. Hoping the Switch becomes #1, so at least a great one holds that title.

That list really shows how little 'hardcore' gamers matter in the grand scheme of things. Stuff that resonates with the casual market will always be way more profitable.

Hardcore ones matter if you count hardcore mobile gamers since thats where all the money is these days (and the predatory mechanics, but theyre clearly insanely profitable).

I'll always boast about the Wii U as a great console for its access to previous libraries, and yes a few gems of its own

But it's hard to argue it doesn't absolutely deserve its spot at the bottom. Frankly I'd put the Wii clearly ahead of the N64 and more personally rank it above the NES.

Yep, and it was actually trailing Odyssey in sales for a while before re-taking it and building some distance. For a game with no multi-player, no online, and hardly any DLC, BotW's longevity is amazing.

BotW has done an incredible job at reaching new fans. First Zelda game to do that since Ocarina of Time, and to a much lesser extent, Twilight Princess.

You don't have to state you don't like BotW at every given chance you find you know. I think we are all aware by now.

that's the classic swordz move though! Persona 5 used to be the punching bag before BotW
