Absolutely, Capcom's work in getting Monster Hunter popular in the West is something to marvel. Not only was it #1 on the PS4 but even on the XB1. I've seen lots of streamers that used to be pretty exclusive Destiny streamers jump onto MHW as their "grinding for gear" game of choice.
Anyway, NA is always competitive, and as long as Sony keeps it close there and doesn't get absolutely bodied in Japan then their domination of Europe should mean that the PS4 continues to extend its global lead for the month.
It definitely shows the strength of the Switch in the US that it was able to be on top despite having no particularly big game launches in January. And Microsoft is still putting up good numbers in its home country. Too bad that can't be said for the rest of the world.
