Just noticed that Smash and Mario Kart went up. Also Pokemon's about to break 4 million.

On a positive note, I've seen the PS5 back in stock (for a few seconds of course) way way more frequently this week in France than ever before since the launch. That's not to say it will be the same for Japan, but I'm curious about next week numbers.

Good numbers for Switch considering they probably moved more units for Mario launch week. Next week should be a great one.

Nioh collection did literally nothing we-

Comparison Time!!!

W## - 3DSY5 - 3DSY6 - Combo - NSW21

W01: 200.1k - 122.9k - 323.0k - [312.1k]
W02: 70.1k — 51.2k — 121.3k - [167.6k]

W06: 34.6k — 19.8k — 54.4K - [88.5k]
What is the difference with your estimates?
I think Q1 2021> Q1 2020 probability is high

It's free to upgrade from a PS4 version.

Yep, Nioh Collection at 9000 yen isn't exactly great value when you get a free upgrade for Nioh 2 and the extensions.

Nioh CE Remasterd and Nioh 2 CE Remastered are also available separately at retail for PS5.

In fact, on Amazon.jp, Nioh 2 CE Remastered is ranked above Nioh Collection right now.

Calm week, looking forward to Mario 3D next week.

For PS5 is guess the first bigger release will be RE Village in May ?
Though the PS5 version of 7Remake might release even earlier if announced.

#Team2021 losing steam already

I know your joking but this is the calm before the 1st storm week storm ⛈

Tbone in absolute shambles

Yeap!!! 3k over what I had predicted for the week 😉

80k comparison to next week from last year and then 50k-60k weeks cuz of shortages. I'm not worried my friend 😛 [/

PS5 stating at 20k+ would have been too good to be true, and with the global ship shortage, it can get even worse until Fall apparently.
Disgaea already out of top 10 makes me sad.

Damn, PS5 only half of last week.
Switch better than expected, right before SM3DW, should be more next week.

Also it's funny to see MK8 gaining 1% while all other dropped.
Edit: just noticed Smash has 7% growth wow. Lol

3D World did about 755k retail on the Wii U. I suspect quite a few of those people will rebuy for Bowsers Fury too.

The Age of Momotaro will come to an end...

Though *technically* it will still be the best selling original Switch game meaning THE AGE OF MOMOTARO WILL CONTINUE

Just noticed Famitsu didn't share their monthly report this time around. Last one was for December, wonder if they didn't stop those altogether...

It's inevitable that we get less data as time goes on now that Media Create doesn't share numbers and Dengeki reports were retired due to redundancy. That and pressure from publishers.
