Last week's thread: Famitsu Sales: Week 31, 2023 (Jul 24 - Jul 30) (vgchartz.com)

Holy Switch!

the ps5 could reach 5 million units sold later this year. it seems more and more certain the ps5 will surpass the ps3

welp, i suppose i was incorrect. the switch upticks in sales randomly again. what a rollercoaster.

also pikmin 4 must have great word of mouth! so impressed with how it’s performing. makes me wonder how it’s doing in the west.

Pikmin 4 held 70% of it's sales from last week, that is a very impressive hold.

Switch sales pop with no major releases. PS5 sells hardware but no physical software. Xbox sales are respectable for Xbox.

Playstation 5 is having a really good year, and it can't even get one game with any kind of retail sales legs. Switch games from 2017 and 2018 sticking around the top 10, PS5 games released a few weeks ago can't crack it.

Wow. All the systems HW selling real well this week.

And Switch SW doing amazing. Nearly everything top 10 increasing WoW and Pikmin having a great third week hold.

It's almost like the Switch is racing to catch the DS in sales and is speeding up sales the past few months to get there sooner haha. Switch knocking out 70/80/90k in year 7 in the summer(!) like it ain't no thang. Switch last lost a week YoY to itself 15 weeks ago!!


Switch is only 193k behind last year right now. Looks likely it'll win YoY the next two weeks, then finally lose pretty significantly YoY for four weeks in a row (W 35-38) then for the 8 weeks after that (39-46) it will probably at least keep up YoY but with Mario Wonder launching during that time it may gain a decent amount YoY those weeks. It'll probably be 350k-400k behind total YoY coming into the holiday season on W47. Last year's holiday was fairly weak so let's say it shouldn't be down a ton, if it averages 140k those weeks it'd just lose an additional 134k YoY during the holidays. So it is looking like it may end up the year only ~500k less than last year, putting the Switch at 4.3m in its 7th calendar year in Japan! Which would be wayyyy above expectations coming into the year. I think plenty of people were predicting an entire million less than that. I know I was predicting 400k-500k less than that.
That would put it right at 32m at end of the year, with just under a million to go to beat DS which would easily happen Spring quarter next year.
