They are through the roof 1.3m for 3 days with out even knowing the digital distribution is very high.

Forget the pacman, this week's chart looks like a babybel. Glad Pokemon opened strongly, the game is great and I'm rooting for Ring fit to keep doing well.

Congrats to Minecraft for reaching 1mil on Switch. This game just keeps selling!

Switch outsold PS4 at a 22.5:1 ratio this week.  Pretty nuts.

Ring Fit Adventure actually had a significant drop this week.  Maybe the normal customers got their exercise by running away from the stampede of Pokemon fans at the game stores.

Speaking of, this apparently marks the first time a Microsoft game managed to sell 1 million in Japan.

Historically, crossing that in a month or so would be best described as "fine."  As a total lifetime that would be low.  However, it's hard to judge where the game is going in terms of its total until either Nintendo gives us a PR statement or we get to the next quarterly report.  The opening week is much, much larger than Let's Go from what we can see but we are still a week away from the big Holiday shopping period kickoff which will factor into the sales trajectory of Pokemon significantly.  

So the Switch reach 10 million units sold in Japan then ? That new, isn't it ?

The milestone was announced by Nintendo on the 5th this month.

Famitsu's number just reach the 10m this week. Could be partially because it doesn't count the Nintendo store sales

The point was that that particular title's sales potential was also put in doubt cause of a number of reasons, yet it was another 10+ million seller. Couple with the "switch effect" and you might actually be right with your prediction, as I believe it will sell more than your average previous titles.

Seems like they are still not dead in Japan. Just needed to buddy up with a certain company.
