Somewhere. I think.
Thank you Famitsu for NOT combining Week 52 and 1 this time.

Looks like great numbers for Switch (Hardware and Software). YTD ended up with +1m YoY thanks to better Week 52 this year.

Very strong week 52 all around.

Most impressive is Pokémon to me, it is basically at 3m retail with a small drop WoW.

Famitsu made a mistake

They clearly released the handheld only chart, I don't see anything from the top selling console in Japan. It needs to be fixed!

And just like that, Switch finishes the year more than 1M up YoY. Just shy of 4.5M, but it counts imo!

Software holds are massive! Remember, this is the week after the biggest week of the year, and drops are limited to 25% or less - with MK8D even growing week on week.

PS4 hardware is pretty good as well!

Great Hardwaresales for Switch, although I expected even a litte bit more. So 4.5 Mio. for the whole year, this is very good.

Software sales are also very strong as well.

So... That means Week 1 numbers next week?

Impressive numbers for Switch HW and SW. Pokemon already on the 3m physical mark and very low declines for almost everyone... :)

luigi and ring fit have great legs. do either of them have a shot at getting to 1 million?

Luigi's Mansion should clear a million including digital sales.

RingFit will definitely achieve 1m and go way above that. There's a huge demand that just waits for more stock. It'll be a huge game in 2020.

This puts Pokémon at 3.7 million minimum if we take the physical sales here and the known digital sales for launch week.

Sun & Moon finished at what, 4 million in Japan? Or is it closer to 5 now?

SWSH could easily pass Sun & Moon, if it hasn't already

Last week of 2016 for SunMoon:
01./01. [3DS] Pokemon Sun / Moon # <RPG> (Pokemon Co.) {2016.11.18} (¥4.980) - 137.813 / 3.384.035 <80-100%> (-57%)

Sword Shield is 400k behind at retail. We already know it did 640k digital in its first week, while lifetime digital sales of SunMoon in Japan were below 100k. We can therefore unreservedly say that Sword Shield handily outsold SunMoon.

Sword/Shield will achieve 4m including digital sales by Week 2.

Very nice switch numbers and impressive Pokémon sales. Also didn't think that PS4 would end so much. Maybe there is still some life left in it?

Plus the digital market and the second hand market won't siphon sales in absence of stock, so the demand will remain as high it can be for the retail restocks.

Looking at the article on Famitsu.com via Google Translate

Sales ranking announced by Famitsu. This time, we will deliver a summary of the estimated sales of game software and hardware weekly from December 23, 2019 to December 29, 2019. For the sake of counting, this is the sales volume ranking for the last week of 2019. Next week, we will provide rankings from December 30, 2019 to January 5, 2020 (sum of two weeks).

Typo aside, it seems next week we're going to get sales for Week 1 and Week 2, 2020 combined...?

There is even a chance that Sword Shield is ahead of XY end of 2013 when including digital:
04./02. [3DS] Pokemon X / Y # <RPG> (Pokemon Co.) {2013.10.12} (¥4.800) - 156.483 / 3.976.829 <80-100%> (-32%)

It would require 1M in digital, which is possible but not guaranteed. It would mean another 360k digitally after launch week.

Pokemon only at 3m retail in 6 weeks ? Nintendo will take away the IP from Gamefreak any second and give it to Level 5.

Nah honestly....all around good numbers. Even Kawashima did quite well. Between Switch Lite, Ring Fit Adventure and the upcoming Animal Crossing Nintendo is expanding their potential Switch audience at a solid pace

Somewhere. I think.
Looking at the article on Famitsu.com via Google Translate



Typo aside, it seems next week we're going to get sales for Week 1 and Week 2, 2020 combined...?

But that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Famitsu gonna Famitsu, I guess. Now that MC doesn't have public numbers, they can pull whatever crap they want : |


Looks like Switch will start outselling the GBA from Week 1 onwards?
