Will update this as new info appears.
Last two weeks were a Japanese holiday called Golden Week and we don't yet know in what form we will get Famitsu data.
On the 14th we should get a top10 with Hardware from both weeks. But this might change.

So here is what we have for now. (by Chris on Era)

Famitsu Sales: Week 18, 2020 (Apr 27 - May 03)

00./06. [NSW] Ring Fit Adventure (Nintendo) {2019.10.18} (¥7.980) - 82.000 / 861.000 <80-100%> (+564%)
00./05. [NSW] Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Nintendo) {2017.04.28} (¥5.980) - 20.500 / 2.918.000 <80-100%> (+34%)
00./09. [NSW] Super Mario Party # (Nintendo) {2018.10.05} (¥5.980) - 14.000 / 1.430.000 <80-100%> (+49%)
00./11. [NSW] Splatoon 2 # (Nintendo) {2017.07.21} (¥5.980) - 12.500 / 3.396.000 <80-100%> (+49%)

Isn't there a typo somewhere? If RFA sold 82k, then wouldn't its sales position be above Mario kart at 20,500? According to the numbers, mk is #5 and RFA is at #6.

ANDY MURRAY:- GRAND SLAM WINNER!

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

That's the rank for the previous week. The rank for the current week is 0 for all which I guess it means they don't have the full numbers so they can't place them. For instance Animal Crossing is most probably still number 1 but it's not listed here.



Signature goes here!

Thanks, So it wasn't a typo after all, just my own idiocy :O

Is that implying they beat Smash? Interesting

I can't help but wonder what Ring Fit would really be selling if it had enough supply to meet demand.

Will we get data for two separate weeks? My memory is saying that last year both weeks were bundled together. Or am I remembering wrong?
