Yeah, after the last two disappointing weeks they're both up again above their resective baselines (~20K/40K). But this week saw a number of mid-level releases, so that explains it. Does the rest of the year has consistent releases of at least decent software, so they both can keep up?

Anyways, PS4 version of Musou sold 4 times as much as Switch version. For FIFA it was nearly four times the sales. Anyone knows how well the Switch release of Dragon Ball Fighters hold up with this number? Valkyria Chronicles sold 10 times as much at the PS4 first week. But even then, VC4 on PS4 is still disappointing compared with previous entries. This makes me sad, as this games is quite good. I hope for better sales in the West. The World ends with you sold initially 80K in opening week on the DS, so 14K for a remake 10 years later seems OKish.

SMP should do it, Pokemon and Smash. Don't know if there are more games that can push sales.

Games not doing great compared to PS4 but the base is greater in PS4, how it can settle and pick up

Actually user base is already pretty close in Japan. PS4 doesn't have four times the units in the wild, not even double. So Switch-games should sell better. And they actually do, only in different genres.
