[Weekly Software & Hardware Sales] Mario Kart World tops the charts for the 20th time! Momotetsu 2 also records strong sales, while Switch 2 console sales in Japan exceed 4 million units [12/29-1/11]


Famitsu's sales rankings. This time, we bring you a summary of estimated weekly sales figures for game software and hardware from December 29, 2025 to January 11, 2026 in Japan.

The top 10 remains the same as last week with the first week of 2026 also seeing Mario Kart World taking the top spot for the 20th time. It seems many people gathered with family and friends to play the game over the New Year holidays, with cumulative sales exceeding 500,000 units. It's a title that is expected to continue selling well in the future.

Next in second and third place were: Momotaro Dentetsu 2: Your Town is Sure to Be There The Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 versions with a combined total of 114,436 units sold over the two week period.

On January 15, 2026, If you own the Switch version of Animal Crossing: New Horizons you can play Animal Crossing: New Horizons Nintendo Switch 2 Edition by purchasing an upgrade pass (550 yen including tax), so it seems that many users decided to purchase it at this time in anticipation of this.

Meanwhile, looking at hardware sales the Switch 2 has finally sold 313,838 units in two weeks and cumulative sales in Japan have surpassed 4 million units.

PS4 will be tracked by Famitsu until 2040 :D

I can't believe they are still tracking PS4. Also rather annoying it is 2 weeks of combined sales as this is our last week of 2025 and first week of 2026 for our estimates. I guess I will need to look at the breakdown last year and use that as a rough guide for these 2 weeks until we get the official breakdown as I want to start posting December estimates.
