Splatoon in the top 5, and it was only out for 3 days in May :blessed:

best mp game this gen so far

Nintendo its time to make more new IPs :ufdup:
Real talk. Splatoon is fukking great. I thought u was on stanning shyt when you said it was just as entertaining as Gears of war MP when It came out but honestly I get that same adrenaline rush whenever I come across another inkling trying to ink up the place. Swimming back in your own ink, popping out and blasting them is :wow:

Splatoon is truly a unique shooter.

But, as always, I’m here to tell you that you cannot take the numbers in this report at face value. NPD only tracks new physical games sold at U.S. retailers. You know what doesn’t factor into that description? Used games, digital, mobile, or anything sold in Europe. So think of this as a useful snapshot of a wider, more dynamic industry.

Uhh not sure why you quoted me. Your quote would make more sense if you quoted the guy who said GTA V didn't treally sell on PC.
