36mil for NSW! Wonder if 37mil is possible? From what I can tell, it looks like it: 20k/wk for 50w is certainly within the realm of reason.

Abysmal PS5 sales.

Considering the massive difference in install base, the PS5 version of that Trails in the Sky game selling a couple of more units physically than the Switch version is impressive.

Week 42 (Pokomon ZA) is going to be massive with that Switch2 bundle coming.

6 weeks of ~40k. It seems to be the baseline for Switch 2, save for big releases and the upcoming Christmas season

I think some of these niche JRPG franchises have their core fanbase on PS, we see similar trends with others like Ys, Atelier etc. Probably has to do with these franchises historically being connected with PS, i think most of those kinds of franchises only started to come out on Nintendo consoles during the Switch era.
