Hang on so the Switch is up on last week and only 4K down on last year's sales for the same week and this is a disappointment? Switch didn't explode until the week Pokemon launched. Same could happen with Smash. Let's wait and see what happens next week. One thing I will say is that Smash should easily sell over 1 million games next week in Japan and if 200K consoles can sell with 600K Pokemon games then that should be the floor for Switch sales next week.

last year it had 3d mario which was never a big franchise in japan, even though the game sold amazing in japan, this year it had pokemon, which is the biggest franchise in the world and huge in japan, add to the fact that pokemon launched nov 16 vs october 26, its not bad numbers, but honestly i been  negative on switch sales but if you look at my history, i expected japan to be way up.
