Forums - Sales Discussion - Famitsu Sales: Week 28, 2020 (Jul 06 - Jul 12)

KabOOM. Another 97K week.

Also the baseball game sold more on Switch which is curious.



Around the Network

That's crazy



Damn Switch, also nice gain from RFA



Switch probably could have hit 7M this year if the stock had been available from early Q1-present. It is 400K ahead of 3DS 2012 through 28 weeks despite shortages, 5.5-6.0M seems like the landing range right now.



Switch this week is 96% of the market in Japan. Talk about total domination.

RFA is killing it, as is AC. AC refusing to drop under 50,000 a week almost 4 months after launch - that thing will easily be the best selling game in Japan of all time.
So is the Pokemon resurgence as of late due to DLC or is it really becoming an evergreen?

FAMITSU TOP SELLING GAMES JAPAN ALL TIME(physical):

8. Animal Crossing: Wild World (NDS) - 5.241.655

9. Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Switch) - 5.114.386

10. Brain Age 2 (NDS) - 5.082.322


New Horizon moves into 9th place, I think it should be very close or in the Top 5 by the end of the Quarter, which would require >5.82M

It already outsold Wild World weeks ago if you include digital.

Yep, I think it's probably close to 6.5M with digital. Which means the game is already in the Top 4 if we are looking at physical + digital.

Most of the old games don't have digital sales.
