And the good news just keeps coming in for Octopath Traveler on Nintendo Switch. It has been announced that the title has now sold through 90% of its initial shipment and has become VERY hard to find in Japan. The game has received rave reviews from a number of internet outlets and Square-Enix has even come out and publicly apologized for the shortages. The demo was extremely fun when I played it but I have yet to pick it up (it’s lack of funds right now…. I desperately want the game!). This is AMAZING news for Switch and I think for the JRPG genre in general. It’s a unique game and it has been receiving “unique” sales as well (mainly selling out). We knew it was going to be a good title but I don’t think anyone expected this game to explode like it has.
