Switch clearly has bad memory, it forgot that Monday is when the Obon festivities ended.

Not a bad Switch hold after Obon (this is after Obon, right?). Software drops are mild as well for a post-Obon week, so perhaps a (sizable?) part of the Obon holiday is still included in this week's results?

The Director's Cut for Ghost of Tsushima also did really well, but it's not a surprise per se since the original release performed really strongly as well. Great performance!

Wow, the Xbox going strong! Also, good to see the PS5 version of GoT selling higher than the PS4 version. All around a good week for everyone.

That's a good bump for Xbox, and Switch evergreens continue to chart. Not a bad performance for GoT, PS5 version even charting above the PS4.

Damn, there has to be something luring Japanese gamers to Xbox.

I didn't expect it to perform this good all things considered.

Phil's trips to Japan paying off.

It's hard to get a feel for how good it actually is though, there's clearly more demand than there was for the One but that's a low bar to say the least.

Thank the heavens for Pokémon and OLED. I was worried there for a moment that my #Team2021 -tattoo should be removed.

So happy to see xbox numbers. Hope they start to build some audience in japan and this brings more japanese games to gamepass.

And Switch, well, amazing as always.

Switch held pretty well post Obon, Xbox on the rise, and a PS5 game doing better than a PS4 game.

Strange times!

Switch Lite sales drying up in anticipation of the OLED model? Hybrid is still trucking along very nicely indeed.

Anyway, puts my thread into perspective, clearly they have data to back the demand they were having.

www.resetera.com

''Japan is Xbox's fastest growing market'' - IGN Japan interviews Jeremy Hinton, who is in charge of the Asian region of Xbox News

Japan is xbox fastest growing market according to Hinton; Some other points that I personally found interesting. - They commit to localized every single first party game, SoT got a increase in JP players since it got a jp update back in February. - They are already in talks with the TGS...

Also Halo infinite is getting a full localization, JP dub and all, not sure if halo 5 got it.
