Is it just me, or does it feels like a ton of games, great ones, are just on an absolutely fucking full steam charge right now?



You've got these amazing success stories from last year, stuff like Nier and Persona 5, where these beloved niche series really start to break out from the pack. Classic franchises like Zelda with Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey crashing in with huge critical and commercial success, not to mention the Switch itself and stuff like MK8 getting a new lease on life and Xenoblade 2 breaking a million in months.



And this year you have incredible sales for series long deserving of wider success, like Monster Hunter, and a triumphant return of series like God of War breaking records for Sony. Can you imagine what a new Pokemon will do on Switch? Can you imagine what Spider-Man is gonna pull?



I haven't been as enthusiastic about the kind of games topping the charts and breaking records for games in a long looooong ass fucking time. This is incredible.
