Ring Fit Adventure takes the top spot. Nothing notable released this week and yet Switch sales go up. Nothing can stop the Switch. It seemingly sells for no reason.

Animal Crossing hype. Pre-orders go live Saturday for the game and the Switch bundle so as long as there is stock Switch might go up again next week.

Super Mario Party overall sales seem too low? Or I just havent paid attention during the previous weeks sales.

It had a large boost thanks to the Joy-Con bundle which I believe is no longer available.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

PS4 deffo won't beat PS3 LTD in Japan :( Crazy how every 8th gen console has failed to pass its predecessor...

Typo.

133,145 should be 1,330,145.



Nov 2016 - NES outsells PS1 (JP)

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

Switch once again comprising over 90% of sales for the week. 

It really is single-handedly carrying the dedicated gaming market in Japan.

And the fun part is that some Japanese 3rd party devs are still not aware of that 😂

Microsoft being one of the most successful third party publishers in the country is what amuses me the most.

Icing on the cake !

Since the release of minecraft, I think only Namco and SE have more software sales.

And yet it still feels like Namco decides what games the Switch gets and whether it gets them on time with a couple of coin tosses.
