Hard drop for MH Rise. I expected a bit better 2nd week. But Hardware sales for Switch are very good.

It is completely ridiculous that Monster Hunter Rise shipments aren't above of Monster Hunter World.

My only guess is that those that ordered the amount of physical units for this title did it based on the same sales data research team Harada uses.

Switch 2021 survives the 2020 onslaught. Next week, 2020 drops to 25k units or so, so 2021 can build up a lead once again.

MonHun numbers aren't dreadful, but some more stock would have been appreciated. Digital remains high according to Gibson, and total sales should have surpassed 2.5M.

Is The Hyprid model for Switch Supply constrained again? Almost a 50% share for the Lite version.

Good hold for Switch and the expected drop for Rise given the Shortages right?

Rise is still virtually sold out, right? Looks like it has around 1M digital sales, that's a good ratio.

Hey there, so I'm new to this sales data.

I have a few questions.

1) What is the source for this data? Famitsu? Do they release it in their magazine every week?
2) Could someone define each of the attributes in this row?

01./01. [NSW] Monster Hunter Rise # <ACT> (Capcom) {2021.03.26} (¥7.990) - 277.604 / 1.579.736 (-79%)

Just looking for definitions, thanks.

3) Is this all digital + physical, or is there a split, or is only certain data reported here?

Even with no shortages, not sure what type of hold people were expecting for Rise. IIRC no 2nd week drop in the series has been better than 70-75%?

So unsurprisingly Outriders PS4 SKU outsold the PS5 one, we'll see tomorrow by how much.
Western games were the first ones were split were favourable for PS4 during the PS3/PS4 crossgen era, it's a first indication of things to come regarding REVIII

World is still 12k units higher after 2 weeks, both launch week and week after launch world did better. Must be shipment issues.

That's a pretty solid HW hold for Switch. Seems a 6 digit Switch numbers for a week or w more is very possible.

Famitsu Website is the source

It's:
RANK/LAST WEEK'S RANK [HARDWARE] TITLE <GENRE> (PUBLISHER) {RELEASE DATE} (PRICE) - WEEKLY SALES / TOTAL SALES (WEEKLY DROP)

It's only physical

I think the format is:
Current place/previous place. [Platform] Game name <Genre> (Publisher) {release date} (Price) - Week sales / Total sales (Difference of sales from previous week in percentage)

According to this post MHR is already ahead of MHW (if just by a few thousand units):
2nd Week MH Famitsu numbers:

01./01. [NSW] Monster Hunter Rise # <ACT> (Capcom) {2021.03.26} (¥7.990) - 277.604 / 1.579.736 (-79%)

As I expected the PS5 shipment responsible for the PS5 sales number last week was a "last shipment for the end of the FY" and not some new standard.

Welcome! To answer your questions:

1. Yes from Famitsu

2. This week's placement / Last week's placement [platform] game name# <genre> (publisher) {date} (price) - this week's sales / lifetime sales (comparison between this week's sales and last week's sales)

3. Physical only

[3DS] Monster Hunter Generations # <ACT> (Capcom) {2015.11.28} (¥6.264) - 374.682 / 1.916.786 <80-100%> (-76%)
[3DS] Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate # <ACT> (Capcom) {2014.10.11} (¥6.264) - 260.485 / 1.878.434 <80-100%> (-84%)
[3DS] Monster Hunter 4 # <ACT> (Capcom) {2013.09.14} (¥5.990) - 432.286 / 2.307.401 <80-100%> (-77%)
[PSP] Monster Hunter Freedom 3 (Capcom) {2010.12.01} (¥5.800) - 514.198 / 2.660.665 (-76%)

Seems like it's slotting somewhere between Generations and 4 in term of shipment/legs, probably closer to 4.
We'll see if it catch up MH4 in the coming weeks (hopefully with updated numbers from Capcom)

Hey there, so I'm new to this sales data.

I have a few questions.

1) What is the source for this data? Famitsu? Do they release it in their magazine every week?
2) Could someone define each of the attributes in this row?

01./01. [NSW] Monster Hunter Rise # <ACT> (Capcom) {2021.03.26} (¥7.990) - 277.604 / 1.579.736 (-79%)

Just looking for definitions, thanks.

3) Is this all digital + physical, or is there a split, or is only certain data reported here?

Famitsu Website is the source

It's:
RANK/LAST WEEK'S RANK [HARDWARE] TITLE <GENRE> (PUBLISHER) {RELEASE DATE} (PRICE) - WEEKLY SALES / TOTAL SALES (WEEKLY DROP)

It's only physical
I think the format is:
Current place/previous place. [Platform] Game name <Genre> (Publisher) {release date} (Price) - Week sales / Total sales (Difference of sales from previous week in percentage)
Welcome! To answer your questions:

1. Yes from Famitsu

2. This week's placement / Last week's placement [platform] game name# <genre> (publisher) {date} (price) - this week's sales / lifetime sales (comparison between this week's sales and last week's sales)

3. Physical only
