Nice 4th week for DQXI.
PS4 DQ might be already over 1.5 Million with DD sales.
Next will be 3 Million at retail.

Switch Drop is LMAO! Ninty really need to sort this out.

And PS4 no. 1 if my math is right?

Pretty much a virtual tie with all 3ds units, I believe the 3DS sold a bit more but I am to lazy to calculate it. They have both 35,7% marketshare this week anyway.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Thank you very much, so the PS4 won after all. It sold less than a hundred units more but it still counts as a win I guess.

Now this week is just plain weird.Did the Switch stock just jump off of a cliff?I would guess is in preparation to next week(MH week with the MH bundle) but thats just too low.

Outside of that, software sales seems good.DQ and Splatoon are holding well, and Switch software also seem healthy.

There have been a lot more shipments this week, to the point that the first 4 spots on Amazon Japan are Switch Consoles right now (and 9 through 13, 16 and 20, so 11 out of the 20 first spots!)

So yes, I believe they hold back a lot of them for this week, when Monster Hunter XX, One Piece Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition and Minecraft: Story Mode get released.



Dragon Quest 11 is still holding up very good and PS4 is doing strong hardware numbers! Number one in the chart baybay!

I was convinced this was MonHun XX week for some reason and was even more shocked at the Switch numbers than the other people! XD

I assume they allocated some stock to next week? Hopefully? I knew the 80k+ weeks probably couldn't last forever, but I thought they'd at least make it to MHs release. And I expected a drop to 40k+ levels, not this.

Splatoon obviously down with stock, but clearly also selling to the existing userbase.

Congrats to Ps4 on winning the week however. DQXI boosted it nicely.



 

Anyway here's Hiska-san's weekly graphs.

You almightly teller of amazon.jp fortunes fortold a bad week for this week as well if I remember correctly. Amazon.jp seems to be a really good indicator. Also the top 20 are insane right now.



Switch is doing a DS right now in Japan. Wouldn't surprise me if it has week on week dips/rises till next year



Sheesh, Switch sales down 75%? That's got to be stock related.
