And there we have it, the Post-Golden Week Super Splash. Switch is barely above 30k and PS4 fell to ~17k. Whoopsies...

Tropical Freeze looks good though! And Labo...well, it managed to stay above 10k, that's something I suppose (I'm getting it this Friday so I have to start cheerleading for it now).

Ha ha, I had no intention of getting Labo but ended up caving in after my daughter asked and asked to get it. Now im kinda cheerleading for it. Joking aside it has passed 200k in Japan now so not bad.

Switch outsold the rest of the consoles on that list combined. Even if it's only 31,000 it's still clearly doing okay for just now.



Holy shit, DKC better than GoW!! Switch a print money

But do they mean out of 10 or out of 100?

As the other games have review-scores in the 60s, 70s, 80s and so on I assume out of 100.

Out of 100. It is also only one review.

Switch just needs big Japanese games.. it has no huge seller there except like Splatoon 2.. the rest is good to average.

They need a 2D mario/MH/Animal crossing/Pokemon

Switch from June starting to have quite good lineup and later this year it will have some strong hevy hitters like Yokai Watch, Smash Bros and Pokemon.



Pokemon Switch has a release date?



Yeesh, this is not a very healthy week in the market.

Aftermath of what?

Of Golden Week. Everything is back to normal prices and its historically the worst week in Japan.

Some summer weeks will be worse, and I think the summer time is generally where the worst week of the year happens.
