Famitsu Numbers for 2023 Week 12 are now in. The data and charts in the OP for Japan sales have been updated. Complete data can be found here. The Famitsu thread for this week is here.
A dissapointing week all round really. PS5 is still selling great for a PlayStation home console and increasing it's lead on PS3/PS4 though it is a steep drop week on week and we'll see if Resident Evil 4 can do anything about that.
Switch is a pretty hefty drop WoW too and is 42% down on last year. If this keeps up all the way till Zelda I may have made a mistake predicting 3.7m-4m sales for it this year.
Xbox, while we don't expect much from them in Japan, is it's worst week since the beginning of September 2022.
Here is the data for this week which is the 316th week of sales for the Switch and the 123rd week of sales for the PS5/XS:
