okay so is nintendo is going to sell 3M switches in japan they need to average 57.7k currently the weekly average is 57.1. I wonder if holiday sales will boost the average up enough. I think it can go either way. I really want to see how paper mario affects sales of switchs.

Switch it sold out in Japan. 😂 they will come back stronger next week

Physical sales are higher in Japan than digital so it's more likely 100k total.

Because sales aren't based on Japanese consumers, the Japanese holidays don't mean much. Maybe a bit too presumptuous, but Japanese people like to travel during Golden Week, so a lot of people will be out of major shopping centers or in Hawaii/Guam etc.

Software top 30 sales for each of week 17 & 18 now posted. Hardware splits will probably be available next week.

Always nice to see a new IP take first place.

Good debut for Stellar Blade.

Seems like Microsoft is sending to the East the units people are not buying in the West, which is kind of ironic. I think theres is still some of that Palworld effect at play here. It will be interesting to see how that market will react to the latest debacle, if at all.

I wonder how many Korean developed games have made an impact on the charts in Japan?

I know Lies of P was one that sold a good amount in Japan.
