Rhythm Heaven is huge in Japan. I remember the Wii entry consistently staying in the top 10 for many, MANY weeks after its launch. But even by RH standards, Groove had an insane opening week. Well deserved: its the entry with the most content, the game is insanely fun and it has a stealing price.

Don't know the sales of previous rhythm heaven games, didn't realise it was so big in Japan.

Gave a modest boost to HW at least but still not too healthy.

Wow that is a lot better than the next biggest entry. Digital would make the gap even bigger.

Great to see the Rhythm Heaven sales. Hope it does well outside of Japan as well.

Very good sales for Rhythm Heaven. It's going to be a bit overshadowed by Pokopia and Tomodachi Life, but is doing great numbers for a platform in its tenth year.

Also, 61k between platforms is the best sales for Goemon since 1995.

Nice to see an improvement with hardware with the Switch 2 above 30k. With Splatoon Raiders near July should be a notably better month for it than June and the Switch 1's last big release seems to helped it reach 10k again. This will be one of the last times both the PS5 and Switch 1 are above 10k and probably the last time the Switch has two new releases taking the top 2 spots. It won't have many number 1 new releases left in general now.

Come on translate Goemon for the west.

Great opening for what may well be the Switch 1's last hurrah in terms of new first party releases.

Also nice to see hardware up across the board. Splatoon Raiders in a couple of weeks should give the Switch 2 a boost as well.
