Japanese Charts: Robust PlayStation Gross sales Cannot Knock Mario Wonder From The High Spot

The newest Japanese charts are in from Famitsu (by way of Gematsu) and it has been yet one more robust one for Super Mario Bros. Wonder, which as soon as once more out-jumps the competitors to land within the high spot with one other 65,017 copies offered.

While Mario’s newest 2D journey closes in on the one milly mark in Japan, it has been a noticeably good week for PlayStation with the releases of Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III hitting each the PS4 and PS5 to dominate the highest half of the charts. Like A Dragon’s next-gen launch narrowly misses out on the highest spot with 63,319 gross sales, whereas Call of Duty’s PS5 launch lands in fourth with 22,132.

This is not to say that the Switch is underrepresented this week, thoughts you. WarioWare: Move It! continues to carry out higher in Japan than it’s within the UK, shifting one other 13,340 copies this week, whereas final week’s silver medallist, Fashion Dreamer, remains to be hanging in there at seventh with one other 8,166 gross sales added to its complete.

With that chatter out of the way in which, this is this week’s high ten software program gross sales in full:

Onto {hardware} now and it has been one other huge one for Sony’s PlayStation 5 which sits on the high of the charts with a whopping 86,869 items offered following the nationwide launch of the brand new ‘Slim’ mannequin on tenth November.

This places the Switch OLED reasonably firmly in second place this time round (with 44,217 gross sales), whereas the Lite and Standard fashions are shifted down the desk to fourth and fifth respectively. Perhaps the return of Super Mario RPG on the Nintendo console this week will shake issues up, although it has a reasonably steep mountain to climb for the time being…
