Ever since its release Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus has been leading the charge in the Japanese charts, and that’s continued in the period of 7th February to 13th February; it’s also making ground on Pokémon Brillanter Diamant & Glänzende Perle in terms of overall sales in the country.

Die Spitze 10 is also dominated by familiar Switch hits, mit Dying Light 2 on PS4 being the sole game to break up the party. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is continuing its oh-so-familiar run near the top, while Mario Party-Superstars is also notably edging towards one million sales in Japan, though it’ll take a good number of weeks yet to hit that target.

The hardware sales continue previous trends with Switch leading the way, with the change that PS5 sales are down to a little over a quarter of last week’s results (very likely due to stock issues):

  1. OLED-Modell wechseln – 66,152 (1,186,491)
  2. Schalten - 34,979 (17,992,188)
  3. Switch Lite – 16,934 (4,566,776)
