[Weekly Software & Hardware Sales] Mario Kart World continues to do well in the final week of 2025! It takes the top spot for the 19th time. Also keep an eye on Animal Crossing: New Horizons, which is about to be released on Switch 2 [12/22-12/28]

Famitsu's sales rankings. This time, we bring you a summary of estimated weekly sales figures for game software and hardware from December 22nd to December 28th, 2025 in Japan.

Although there were some changes in the rankings, the top 10 remained the same as last week with Mario Kart World taking the top spot for the 19th time. An in-game event called "Online Challenge New Year Opening Cup" is scheduled to be held online on Monday, January 12, 2026 (national holiday) and is expected to be a big hit.

Next in second and fourth place were the Switch and Switch 2 versions of Pokemon LEGENDS ZA . Coming in fith and sixth are the two versions of Momotaro Dentetsu 2: Your Town is Surely There Too - East Japan Edition + West Japan Edition and both have recorded strong sales.

Next we want to draw your attention to Animal Crossing: New Horizons which remains in 10th place, just like last week. Animal Crossing: New Horizons Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is scheduled to be released on Thursday, January 15, 2026, but if you own the Switch version, you can play the game by purchasing an upgrade pass (550 yen [tax included]). It seems that many users decided to purchase the game at this time in anticipation of this.

Meanwhile, looking at hardware sales, the Switch 2 is doing well again this week with over 200,000 units sold.

Switch 2 sold 800K+ in Japan this December

Yearly Nintendo Platform sales in Japan.

Even though I know Japan loves Kirby, I really didn't expect Air Riders to do this well. Glad to see it though. I think the market can single headedly carry the game to 4m+ LT (1m from other regions)

Are we getting this week's numbers today? I was kind of expecting a combined number but only got the previous week.

I'm just rooting for Switch 1 to reach 37 mil. Maybe 37.5 if we're really lucky.

Famitsu works in mysterious ways. In the past they would have released data for both weeks combined.  Hopefully we get the missing week before next Thursday.

Can Switch 1 beat PS5 in 2026 in japan?

What happened to the users who posted WoW sales data for NS1/NS2? Would be curious to see a comparison. I know NS2 is up 11% on NS1 for their first respective calendar years, but how do holidays compare?

Yes.
