Around the Network

great week for the xbox, you asked me what happened for sales to increase so much? At the beginning of the generation I didn't believe it but the xbox series could reach at least 1 million units sold in Japan. A little smaller than the 360 ​​but much better than the original xbox and xbox one.



Pikmin 4 is finally dethroned by... Pikmin!



Signature goes here!

Pikmin 1+2 is greater than 4. Where is the lie?



The PS5 hits the two million mark but the Switch just barely missed the three million so the double didn't happen unfortunately.



Around the Network

A couple of milestones this week, 2M for PS5 YTD and 500K for XBS LTD. It's the first time Playstation hardware has sold 2 million in a year since the PSP in 2010 and with 13 weeks of 2023 still remaining.

Best Yearly sales in Japan for Playstation hardware

I thought Pikmin 1 + 2 came out a long time ago like before 3 on the Switch? I was in a local gamestop here in Kula Lumpur and saw it on the shelf just last week. Did Japan get a late release or something?

Pikmin 1+2 came out earlier this year for digital only. Physical only came out last week on Sept. 22 or something like that. This report is for last week so it makes sense.



Xbox Series X/S Crossed the half a million mark in japan. 

Here is the current Xbox console sales according to Famitsu.

Xbox 360 December 10, 2005 1,616,128
Xbox Series X/S November 10, 2020 507,539
Xbox February 22, 2002 472,992
Xbox One September 4, 2014 114,831
