Top 10

NSW - 7
PS4 - 3

Switch maintains over 30% yoy growth and ps4 has low sales as expected. It just received 300k of software sales from new releases and sold the same as last week. Because new software doesn't do much for sales of super old hardware.

Switch is almost 35% up in comparison with last year's same week!

Brain training staying in top 10! And Switch almost at 100k!

Any TMS#FE comparison?

I think it sold something like 23k at launch on the Wii U

Switch has had a very good start to the year so far. Looking forward to Animal Crossing numbers.

The rerelease of Tokyo Mirage Sessions on Switch also had a weaker launch than the Wii U original, this and Bayonetta 2 are the only Wii U ports to perform below their originals.

Well... that's surprising. Considering how poorly the original performed I was expecting the Switch release to do a lot better. I guess the WiiU wasn't the reason the game flopped after all.

Maybe western sales will be better though.

Original apparently sold ~330k LT Globally, was hoping the Switch release could hit at least double that.

Even though PS4 software sales are decent, hardware is falling fast. Sony needs to give it a price cut in Japan if they want to be able to sell one million unit or close to it, this year.
