Paper Mario Origami King TOPPLED by Ghosts of Tsushima in the U.K. Gamers have spoken with there wallet.

Gamers are just more interested in Ghosts of Tsushima than origami king right now, thats just how it is folks.

I knew this already and I saw this a mile away. I was like origami king looks like crap and ghosts looks excellent its not 7/10 its more like 9/10.

Origami King doesn't have legs its falling in sales. Its not a breath of wild or a super mario rpg which would be charting like crazy right now.

This is why gamespot got a ton of dislikes on there GoT review people don't agree with it and have spoken.

The better game is on ps4 the worse game is on the Switch.

@KBFloYd is in hiding right now

You reminded me that I need to pick up Origami King. Dang, I was just in the city today.

Fanboy rhetoric or just dumb? Animal Crossing: New Horizons broke records and got high scores, but those who don't like the franchise or Nintendo still trashed it.

That makes anything you say irrelevant.

FloYd's whole career should have ended with LABO, but he keeps coming back.

Yeah dude that guy hyped labo he actually built those kiddie things and played with them lol

I'm always happy when a new IP sells well, with that aside; Dear forum dwellers; do you see it being a franchise or just a standalone game?

With the sales it's been getting. Definitely a franchise.

Ah, another dumb thread by OP

This game came out, i saw zero articles about it on GS, and nobody ever talks about the game like a day or two after launch. Its like Nintendo released an unwanted game. I've also heard that its so easy a baby could play it.

Nintendo gamers are broke from buying Animal Crossing and Mario Kart Mobile lootboxes.

I'm out on Paper Mario until Nintendo makes another like the og or ttyd.

Soo you are a ps fanboy today? Ok..

Good for Got for selling well, I keep seeing stories where it's the best selling New IP ever for Sony (Even better than HZD) and it's sold out in a few places, like Japan.

Even a few local stores in my area are all out physical copies. Way to go Sucker Punch!

5 of the top 10 are Nintendo games since Minecraft was the Switch version.

@drummerdave9099: I have to say, this new one doesn't feel too dissimilar to TTYD.

The combat mechanics are a bit different (you solve puzzles *then* do the turn-based timed attack thing), but the world design, scope of the adventure, and travel companions remind me of the Gamecube game.

It's the best Paper Mario game in a long time. Definitely a step back in the right direction for the series.

I'd imagine something like that would provide the mental stimulation suitable to your intellect level.

You guys sure like to obsess over another user on these boards, and they're not even here to see such flattery. Should I set you guys up with a date?

@R4gn4r0k: 2/10 dude

Such a shame. I'm having a blast with the Origami King. Definitely a game that's better on-the-go, though.

Congratulations! Honestly its amazing how new IPs can sell so well. I guess PS not having a long running tentpole franchise other than Gran Turismo really helped the buyers to be more diversified and accepting of new IPs.

I guess Paper Mario came up flat... 😏

this news is like a week old but..

so no sales numbers in the uk?

just that it got #1 in a month when nothing was released except paper mario? in the uk?

this is your ghosts of tsushima sales ownage thread? LMAO

--

oh and remember the articles...."best launch of any sony exclusive in japan ever!! SOLD out all over japan!!!"

remember that? LOL it sold 200k units in launch week. its a fucking joke how bad sony exclusives do in japan LMAO

it will be lucky to ever hit 500k.

oh and to all my fans.... i have an onlyfans where i build labo kits and play with them while im in a tang top and shorts.

lol

@KBFloYd: How long until you disappear again from getting absolutely reckt, I give it a few days tops.

how long until after im done fighting console wars that you come by days later to eat all the crumbs like a cockroach with your ps4 cockroach motel. how fitting.

Justice is served. The best new IP this gen is a smash hit while another subpar Paper Mario has flopped.

@KBFloYd: Truth hurts butter cup, you want us to say bye now to you or later?

ummm both games flopped son.

Agreed, not my best joke.

You are being too generous.

Good. Better would be if Origami King didn't sell at all.

Bitter. Shouldn't you be getting mad and leaving bad user reviews on Atlus games on Metacritic after the last Nintendo direct right now? Don't answer, I know you have.

And yet Paper Mario looks 10x more fun than GoT.. but hey, as long as Ghosts sells more, that's all that matters to you cows.

PS4 always dominated the UK though, and Paper Mario, while a strong seller, was never one of Nintendo's best. This isn't a huge surprise or accomplishment.

That's fair- I don't think I'll return until we get exp, leveling up, badges, etc back though. That circle puzzle line the enemies up thing looks like it gets boring after a while. Maybe if the game hits the $20 selects lineup someday I'll pick it up.
