Forums - Sales Discussion - Japan sales (Week 51): Media Create/Famitsu/Dengeki - December 18-24, 2017

Was expecting a 300-350k week for the NS, 100+ week for the 3DS and a 75-80k week for the PS4, still impressive sales nonetheless, only consoles down week over week is the Xbox one and the PS3. Nintendo destroying the software charts is impressive,



Around the Network

How times have changed, back in the ps2 Era these charts would have been littered with playstation games. Now the turnaround couldn't be more obvious.



Think for yourself, question authority

The Switch is saving the market in Japan, really nice to see so many good numbers. Also happy to see ambitious titles doing well even in Japan like Splatoon, Botw and Odyssey. Its clear Nintendo will continue in this direction with the critical acclaim and also commercial success of these games.

Idolmaster spoiling the top 10 party lol.

Anecdotal evidence was badly off this week for hardware sales. Too much weight is being put on it.

just like you using comg to say PS4 will dominate Japan next year

Lol that was a joke. Some people take me too seriously. 



Odyssey seems to be the 2nd best selling 3D Mario in Japan right after 3D Land (which btw is misleadingly slated as Super Mario 3DS in the database) and it's been on the market for exactly two months !

Its tracking ahead of 3D Land, someone is doing a comparison on ResetEra, ill try looking for the numbers.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

The sales of Switch are enormous!!

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (NS)- 35,565 (738,026)

261,974 copies away from 1 million. I know it's much, much closer when combining digital and the Wii U version. (It might even be there already.) I'm just looking at the Switch version by itself.

The Road continues.
