Happy that Puyo Puyo Tetris reached the top 10, althugh I expected somewhat better sales. Also, shame for Disgaea. I hope it gets better numbers in the West, I'll get it when it comes out.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

The Switch games add up to 340K. This doesn't include digital. So everyone bought at least one game, some more.

Horizon did amazing, and Switch off to a decent start, with Zelda also off to a decent start.

For the first time in just under 2 years, Minecraft Vita has left the top 20. Boothisman, Switch games!

But otherwise, exciting week huh.

Oh, and Disgaea 5 on Switch megabombed lol. Disgaea 3 Vita (also a launch title) sold 22k FW, Disgaea 5 sold sub 5k. Disaster. Hope NIS have a backup plan.

NIS has a backup plan, indeed, but it's not a very good one: Launch Disgaea 5 Complete at full price against Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in the west.

I wish I was kidding.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I'm pleased that Switch-Zelda outsold WiiU-Zelda 1:4. For PS3 vs. PS4 I had watched for a time that Japan was slow adapting to PS4. On the other hand, PS3 was successful, WiiU wasn't. Insofar understandable.

WOW! Horizon and Zelda were quite far apart! I dont know why people expected Horizon to sell more than Zelda? Some wrong translation or somthin else?

Horizon sold within my prediction. I knew straight away it wasn't going to hit 200k haha.



From gaf and vgchartz im surprised no1 has figured out the question "why did many buy the switch" when the software dont add up..
Its because of one thing for some early adopters....

Splat222222! Cmon yall figure it out yourselves next time xD



damn so horizon will sell 200k alone in japan? damn impressive
