Forums - Sales Discussion - Famitsu Sales: Week 9, 2025 (Feb 24 - Mar 02)

Excellent sales for Wilds on PS5. I imagine the digital ratio for this title is high as well as most Capcom games are. Also, it should be noted that the bundle in Japan is a digital code too so that's going to boost the overall number. All in all, great sales this week for PS5 and Wilds.

week 9 beat 2018! Switch got boosted back over 45k with no big releases.



Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !

Second highest week fore PS5... since launch.
Also is it true that by law MH can only launch on Friday's in Japan?



congrats PS5 !!!

King Switch again +45k !

Capcom to the rescue for Sony.



No MH boost for Xbox Series?



Big game gets released for PS5, and hardware sales go way up.  The funny thing about this is that this is the first time I can recall this happening for PS5 in Japan.  For 2021-2023 and part of 2024 what we saw was hardware selling well every week and software selling like total crap.  Then some big game would get released, and hardware sales seemed unaffected.  Sometimes hardware sales would even go down when a big game got released.  We are at the point now that scalping looks to be over, and hardware sales are actually affected by software now.



Good opening for Monster Hunter

I think this time the split is 60-40 between PS5 and PC, and 50-50 between digital and physical on PS5

I think 2 million launch in Japan is reasonable ?



Monster Hunter Wild will be the First PS5 Game to reach 1 Million physical copies in Japan!
