At the time that ARMS came out, you had Zelda, Mario Kart, and indies. Here are the games of note that had released since Switch's launch: 1-2 Switch, Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Bomberman R, Lego City Undercover, Disgaea 5 Complete, and Cars 3... And there weren't even that many Indies available by June 2017 either with Blaster Master Zero, The Binding of Isaac, and Shovel Knight being the notable ones. There just wasn't much of anything to play on Switch when ARMS came out. Most people had bought a Switch and Zelda, so Zelda was mostly beaten by people at that point. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was great, but it wasn't really new. And the next big release was Splatoon 2 which was still over a month out. It was the perfect window for something like ARMS to release since there was so little else to play on the system. And anecdotally, I saw a TON of people drop the game shortly after release and also several people admit that they stuck with it longer than they should have. I remember very vividly that time and how excited people were for any Switch release because there was so little available. And ARMS was the first genuinely new experience on the console since 1-2 Switch from Nintendo proper.

I'm not saying it didn't have any dedicated community or genuine support as a game, but I do think its success was largely inflated due to the circumstances of its release and it would not perform as well if it was released in today's Switch climate as it did then.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, outsold the original. Thats a huge gain for the switch. Your underselling Mario Kart deluxe. That was a massive game as the wii u sales were trash. Barely anyone had it then, comnpared to now. That game is still huge and massively played. Its one of the top switch games currently. I really don''t think people dropped it for ARMs. Arms had enough on its own to earn the sales it got. Its release window was good, but if it released as the only big game of a month, right now, I wouldn't be shocked if it sold just as well. Of course there really isn't anyway to definitively prove or disprove this notion.

1) Collect all Jiggies in a world in Banjo-Kazooie (while not transformed) and they do both of their dances
2) When the screen shows Skull Kid's drawing on a stump at the end of Majora's Mask, and Saria's Song plays
3) hard to choose from this point on, I'll just go with catching Pikachu in Pokémon

so many great moments, like times in Minecraft, some Bowser moments, Pikmin, EarthBound, Kirby, the champion battle with Cynthia.......

Alright, quick question.

So what is with these AMA’s? Are they picked randomly, is there a specific thread that all AMA’s take place?

I’ve been trying to see some of them, since they’ve been going for some time now, but I can’t find them.

Know what would had made MUA:3 better?

If Yondu was among the roster. I would had loved to play as him. Hopefully he'll be DLC.

1. Meeting a random player on TF2 with the name Alexander Hamiliton, changing my name to Aaron Burr, then challenging him to in game duel where we only used Spies and fought each other with revolvers. Most of the server stopped fighting so we could have our duel.

2. Fighting and beating The End in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater at like 3 in the morning. I was so tired and slightly delirious, but that's probably what made me so immersed in the experience. Still my favorite boss fight in any game to this day.

3. Going to a local Smash tournament, having some great matches, and being satisfied with my results even if I didn't win fist place or anything.

Oh man, those are sum questions...

3. The moment in Portal 2 where Wheatly puts Glados in a potato and goes insane. It turns a victory moment into a dangerous situation and shifts alignments around instantly, in An expert narative with great Voice acting.

2. Wakeup at The Fallen Arm, in Xenoblade Chronicles 1. After you defeat Metal Face at Galahad Fortress and rescue Fiora, Shulks original goal has been achieved. Fiora, while saved, is maimed for life, Metal Face is defeated, but the rest of the Mechon army stands ready to exterminate mankind. The Dark secrets of the monado keep getting darker and the situation behind Egil is getting more and more complicated. As the team is split up, washed ashore on the island, they all try to assess what to do next as they try to find each other and with the most beautifull melancholic theme playing, Shulk has to come to a conclusion. His journey is longer about getting revenge for the death of his girlfriend. It's about something much, much bigger.

1. The "Goodbye" from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky. The protagonist finally reveals to his partner that he figured out changing the timeline would wipe him from existence, leaving the Pokémon who he became the best friend in the world with over a lengthy story to fend for himself. The emotion, the music, the bitter Sweet ending to a wild journey, the whole montage aterwards of the partner going on with daily routine on his own. All topped off by the fact this scene is the only one in the game where the protag has dialogue. This scene is perfection.
