Really surprised to see super mario maker 2 in the top 30! Has it been up there a lot recently?
Also a bit surprised BotW and TotK have been kinda absent lately, but i guess EoW is pulling the weight at the moment.

Zelda doesn't resonate with JP quite like it does with NA/EU. Plus, as you state, I think EoW might be the biggest reason for those other two not selling too hot atm. If you want a Zelda game, you’re prolly looking at the new game that released a few months ago. Especially when Nintendo has been pushing ads on EoW over BotW/TotK.

That used to be the case, but Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have done Monster Hunter level sales in Japan, which is kind of crazy.
