Curious to see how 2020 number will look. Pretty certain both should have seen a sizable increase.

During 2020 on Switch Nintendo's first-party annual software sales had a sizeable increase however third-party annual software sales should have been only slightly up compared to 2019.

Konami and Koei Tecmo are up YoY but Bandai Namco, Square Enix, Capcom are down.

Mojang/Microsoft (Minecraft) held steadily.

Atlus had a noticeably increase (just over 100K) but only because they started from 0 (that is more or less what Atlus sold on Switch in 2019)

Switch is a huge success in spite japanese publishers' crappy efforts.

Missed opportunities by third parties.

By 2018 it should have been known switch would have been a success worldwide the the dominant leader in Japan and that should have given them enough time to release big games in 2020.

I know Capcom is upping its support with big games but lets see what the rest of the Japanese third parties do.
