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?

Momotaro's second year will probably be higher than any other game on the Switch thus far, it needs just 700K sales for the rest of the year to surpass Ring Fit Adventure's 2020 result. Overall both Konami & Capcom will continue to see considerable gains this year. 

Top 5 CY Result Switch Evergreens(no launch year)

1. [2020] Ring Fit Adventure (Nintendo) - 1.591.366
2. [2019] Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Nintendo) – 1.092.397 
3. [2021] Momotaro Dentetsu (Konami) - 934.386
4. [2020] Pokemon Sword/Shield – 892.456
5. [2020] Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Nintendo) - 798.174

Disgaea 5 will be fine, the franchise will see growth and will achieve a good result for Japan & West. It's just expectations are different for a title like Disgaea surpassing 100K is something the franchise hasn't done in decades in Japan and will probably achieve it with legs outside the Top 30, digital sales and further marketing from Nippon Ichi. 

Pokemon Snap is definitely Pokemon Co since they publish it

Thanks for all this info. So Momotaro is a beast. And with Snap Bandai as dev has some more revenue than the publisher share would show.
