King Switch 1 coming for 160 million !
So .. we now see comments from the previous week's numbers but we don't see them ? Am I missing something or ? One main thread sounds awesome on paper, however in practise, if after some time we can go back and only read some comments but don't see the data about the comments are, is that really okay ?

Apparently (week1): Onimusha 1: 510k~ Onimusha 2: 670k~ Onimusha 3: 350k-430k~ Onimusha 4: 180k~ Man... I miss the PS2 era. Onimusha 1 was my first bought PS2 game. Got it a few days before the console itself. |
Thank you for the info. The sales for Way of the Sword are pretty good considering the series has been dormant for so long.
Signature goes here!

Last week was an oddity (in that I forgot to post them separately from the OP). Moving forward, the comments for each week will be tied to the latest repost of the OP.


Just under 100k physical for Onimusha is pretty good considering the IP was dormant for 20 years prior to this new entry.
Decent week for hardware too all things considered, with all three relevant consoles up from last week. Switch 1 even post price hike and in its retirement years still managing to best the PS5 by a comfortable margin. Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi showing healthy legs.
Switch Sports Resort next month should give the S2 a bit of a bump, plus the MH Wilds bundle in December.


YoY weekly comparisons chart has been updated. Should have top 30 results for software soon. Switch 1 continues to impress, I must say. Onimusha performed quite well too.


I guess we'll see how things go this way for a few weeks then. For the data this week it's another improvement from the low a couple weeks ago with the Switch 1 going back over 10k again. For software Tomodachi life will drop out of the top 10 soon at last after quite a run.
