Late release no barrier for Nintendo’s poster boy
Digital retail overlordAmazon.comcurrently list Nintendo’s highly-acclaimed platformerSuper Mario Odysseyas their best-selling video game of 2017.
The Switch title, launching pretty late in the game on October 27, is currently surpassing Amazon sales of many of 2017’s biggest money-makers, includingZelda: Breath of the Wild, Call of Duty: WWII,Destiny 2andCrash Bandicoot: N.Sane Trilogy.
Obviously, the year is not quite overjustyet. So, unless a sudden monster comeback is mounted byBreath of the Wild,Call of DutyorValkyria Revolution, it’s looking pretty snug that Mario will be spending Christmas celebrating his incredible success, alongside Peach, Yoshi and John Leguizamo.
