Kirby numbers are puzzling. It has moved 420k retail in Japan, however it bombed hard in European charts

It sold around the same number of Metroid Ptike 4 in America according to Circana, but Metroid is absent from the 1 list (suggests <1 million)

Maybe they overshipped it a bit during Christmas and the game had a high digital ratio even in Japan. 1 million from shipments + digital in Japan and around 700k elsewhere

Kirby Air Riders placed above Donkey Kong Bananza in the Japanese top digital downloads chart, suggesting it sold around 200-300k digitally in Japan.
