PS5 game finally makes it into the Top 50 for the year, as Resident Evil: Village & Nier Replicant are able to get the PlayStation ecosystem to close to 5% market share for the first time this year. 

Pokemon Snap is the other major title launched and it seems it won't have trouble outselling the original game, with a good hold in its second week. 

The next major game launching is Rune Factory 5 for Marvelous which should allow them to get ahead of Square ahead of the Final Fantasy Vii Remake Intergrade launch. 

Thanks for creating this list, it is quite interesting.

Shocking how Momotaro in 2021 still keeps the second place. Capcoms publisher share should rise, given now RE is fresh out the oven, Rise has incredible legs and MonHun Stories will still release.

I am a bit disappointed about the bad performance of Disgaea. Hopefully the western release will give it some more sales.

And question: does Pokemon Snap count for Nintendo or Bandai?
