Does well in Japan, but the rest of the world still in PS5 and Xbox mode.

Switch is outselling Xbox in Europe too, technically.

PS5 and XBS are nearly four years younger than the Switch; it's not surprising PS5 at least is posting higher numbers than a system that's well passed it's 7th birthday. 

Now that's a tight race between 2023 and 2024

Switch is outselling it in Europe more than 2:1 so far for the year.

The Japan only numbers for the Switch are almost on par with the US + EU numbers of the XBSX for the year so far.

OP updated. We now have top 30 software for each of the two weeks, but hardware is still combined. HW splits will likely be known at next week's update.

next week Switch should pass the PS5 last year to date total! and is 60k sales per week is stable it should also pass Switch 2019 total (to date)

If the PS5 jumps in the next few weeks (around the time Black Myth releases in China) we'll have a good measure of how many consoles are actually being shipped from Japan to the rest of Asia. I suspect they're a significant part of Japan sales at the moment---perhaps as much as 50%.

It should jump regardless of China. Dragonball got a big following due to Wukong (Goku). Plus all the Chinese-Japanese living in Japan.

Not a single PS5 game in the top 30 for the week ending 18th of August, so nothing on the platform sold more than 2289 physical copies in the whole country for that week.

Power Pros doing well on Switch, making it to #1 in it's 5th week even against evergreen giants like Mario Kart and Momotaro.

I had this same thought too with all the reports of PS5 selling out in China.
