Switch is still supply constrained, so people that want Splatoon 2 are jumping at every oportunity to get a Switch to play the ame, which makes the console keep selling a high number whenever there is units available to sell.DQ, on the other hand, launched on two systems that are already have a install base, so there is a good chance that the people that wanted that game already owned one of the two systems, making the hardware sales numbers be more front loaded and having "fewer legs".

Yeah, that's true I guess. But I had assumed that it'd least at least longer than a week.

Well, what'd you expect? PS4 went from ~90k to ~50k. Not something worth praising, but I don't think it's bad.

So, the Switch is on top this week? I thought that the PS4/3DS would have been higher from the Dragon Quest effect.

Is the Switch still supply constraint? I'm missing info since the stock improved.

Switch. The king of Japan!

Looks like the 3/2DS from here.

This. Although Switch won this week, but it needs some more weeks to be the king.
