*Pokemon Sword / Shield didn't make the Top 10 likely in 6th position

Software + Hardware are up about 20 % YoY. This should be the case until March. I guess that Nintendo will be a bit more prepared for the demand this year and there will be less supply constrained weeks. I'm not sure if Monster Hunter can sell as well as Animal Crossing in Japan, but I think Nintendo should have a very good year in Japan again, maybe even better.
