Really thought the Switch 2 reveal would hurt Switch 1 sales more than this, but apparently Japan's love for the system remains undying.

Decent opening for Wukong, considering its stuck on hardware that Japan's not that enthusiastic about.

Switch still up YoY in it's 9th year, which is crazy!

How many PS5 units will be sold weekly once the Switch 2 launches? I estimate that, at best, it will reach five digits (10K+).

The Switch is certainly holding strong in Japan so far. I think it'll fall behind last year in February or March but the impact before April won't be as notable as I expected.

12) Honkai: Star Rail Trailblazer Edition (miHoYo, 01/30/25) – 3,221 (New)

This game has a physical? That is unexpected, did not know that was a thing with miHoYo verse games.

[NSW] Detective Pikachu Returns (The Pokemon Company, 10/06/23) – 1,313 (175,828)

Didn’t expect this game to return. Last time it charted was back in November 2023 at 125,148

It all depends because icaro should have written Black Jung Wukong. Idk maybe the meta changed.

we need Rhythm Heaven

Prepared to another weekly charts of sweet Switch sales. It's really just Japan's SOAT (System Of All Time) !
