Right, but he asked for notable releases. I don't think people are expecting Little Nightmares and Sushi Striker to tear up next week's MC chart.

He never stated what he counts as notable and people have different opinions on what notable is so a full list allows people to take a look at everything and decide from there.

Zelda is doing great!

Now to the meat: The Switch is on its baseline of 40k, which is ok. The PS4 can't move units that much, despite being available. Also pretty low software sales overal, some new releases are absolute bomba. Didn't expect DS remastered to drop so much already.



Yeah, particularly bad initial week for Blazblue on the Switch.



Switch at 40k without releases in June is pretty good actually. If it can stay around that number for the summer it would be great. The games are coming for Switch and will give it a nice little boost.

Also congrats to BoTW ! On its way to become the best selling Zelda game in Japan.



So anybody still think the PS4 has "shortages"?



Think for yourself, question authority

When it's selling 5-7k higher than when it had shortages? Why would anyone think that?

You seem to be about 6-8 weeks in the past. PS4 has been well in stock now for a month or so.

How did it do compared to past entries? It seemed like it sold lower on all platforms

Ps4 increasing to 18k. Cruising to 7m and will beat ps3 easily to that milestone according to Hiska-San's graph.

 

Great second week for Detroit and dark souls.

Not sure. Continuum Shift sold 6k first week for the 3DS so that's around a ~30% drop from that.

Central Fiction sold 22k first week on PS4 so that's around a ~50% drop from that.

So yeah, both did poorly.
