Great win for Switch compared to last year.
Now that stock seems to no longer be a big issue for Switch it will probably settle into a relatively stable baseline in the coming weeks, unlike last year. Will be very interesting to see what that ends up being.

What's up with Xbox? Low stock? i know xbox is barely a thing in Japan, but 100 units per week is less than what One was selling at its time, while the launch was not that bad (25k)

Switch is hitting the ground running in 2021. I'm looking forward to seeing how much of a lead it can get over 2020 before March where it should start having trouble outselling 2020.

PS5 still tracking below the comparable week for the PS4 (https://www.gematsu.com/2014/04/media-create-sales-4714-41314). Like Rol said in the previous thread, they should have delayed the launch if that's all they could spare for Japan.

March is Animal Crossing in 2020. But it gets MonHun in 2021. But MonHun is probably more frontloaded, still that means March and April probably still goes to 2021.

Fast start to the year for Switch

Momotaro is leading the list with a bunch of evergreens following. Momotaro was really the only biggish holiday game this year in Japan. In spite of that Switch hardware sales are massively up YoY. It it mostly those evergreens driving the sales increase. Those games just keep selling forever.



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
