For some reason, Ring Fit Adventure topped pre-order charts on Amazon last week, guess the ads are doing work.

Is the digital game only pack MyNintendo exclusive and therefore not tracked?
It is strange that Final Fantasy VII remake is on 12th in that list or it is normal?
I'm curious to see what the ratio between OG Switch and Switch lite will be next week; it could be an early indication if I was right when predicting that 1 year from now, only 30-ish% of the new sold Switch would be the lite ones in Japan. (and 20-ish% worldwide)
I do not feel that the lite is such an attractive proposition compared to the flagship model, even for someone who plays mostly handheld. Still a good product for Nintendo, as it doesn't seem to interact much with the sales of the OG Switch.

That's very low. Your predictions are yours of course, but have you taken into account that you're predicting for the entire month and not your launch week?[NSW] The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition (11 days) - 13.000
I think all those who expect some lackluster PS5 launch in japan may be end up being wrong, it is my impression Sony may have learned the importance of having Japanese games ready for launch window, both for Japan and the West, and will surprise people here. I say this based on the what I perceive as the radio silence from the major Japanese publishers as far as big games announcements this year.
P.S.
And no, I am not a Sony fan, I own only a Switch (with 3 Switches in my household and a fourth coming soon) and couldn't care less about the success of PS5 one way or the other. Being a company owner myself (not the size of Sony...) this is just what I expect from a business like Sony though after they saw the success of most of their Japanese games this generation. I expect them to do it for the sake of their Western sales, but as a side effect this should be beneficial for their Japanese sales as well, at least out of the door. Total PS5 sales may still end up same or less than PS4.
The entire month is two weeks for The Witcher 3.That's very low. Your predictions are yours of course, but have you taken into account that you're predicting for the entire month and not your launch week?
I thought my (spin, spin) was enough to show I was joking but on a more serious note the concept of double dippers is hard to quantify.So thats why the DS and 3DS did so well, due to the double and triple dippers :P
Seriously though, i wonder how big marketshare the double/triple etc. dippers account for.
Sure, i knew it was a joke, thats why i also joked about it =) I just added the more serious note as a talking point to see how much revision system affects the overall userbase.I thought my (spin, spin) was enough to show I was joking but on a more serious note the concept of double dippers is hard to quantify.
If someone replaces a system with a new, more powerful one, their older system is usually sold so the consumer base remains even/increases.
If the buyer keeps the old system (hoarder, several television sets, siblings) then the consumer base doesn't increase.
Then people replacing broken/out of warranty systems.
The last two situations are probably very very marginal and should be statistically speaking dismissed.
