• Momotaro is going to make Konami the 2nd place publisher for the year
• PS4 will probably end up with only 13-14 titles in the Top 50 this year, since a lot of games on the Switch outside the Top 30 continue to sell
• With three weeks left, I think we will see something in the region of 22.5 to 23 million sales within the Top 50

Damn not even 1 PS5 title in the top 50. This holiday is pretty damn tragic for PS5 in Japan.

There are not yet enough PS5 in the open to even have enough install base to get on this list yet. There are 172k PS5 (I'm leaving out the discless version since those can't contribute to the software numbers) and you need ~65k sales for a game to appear on the top 50, which would ba an attach rate of over 30%. Even for Nintendo titles, 30% are a lot and very hard to reach, so it's even more difficult for any other brand of games.

I'd look again in 3 weeks, at the end of the year. By then, the install base should have increased to an amount where a PS5 title technically could show up - but it would still be very difficult considering how slow the PS5 software sales seem to be so far.
