Well at least MonHun has half a year until its release. I was expecting Replicant to make the chart since it has been at #1 on Amazon JP pretty much since it was able to be pre-ordered yesterday.

Yeah it beats previous days record holder for Switch by 12 days (FF Chrystal Chronicles at 170 days and 5 pts)

Still that is a puny opening for a Monster Hunter game but the road is long so lets see where it leads us.

I think that due to the Covid situation, people want to buy games closer to the release date right now. And considering what games are coming out between now and MHR release, those probably take precedence right now. Momotaro, SMT III, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Atelier Ryza 2, those are all fairly big releases.

Unless Nintendo comes with a big surprise launch for the holidays, then the preorders should start to really ramp up after the release of Age of Calamity.
