Cartes japonaises: Mario Kart 8 Les dépassements de luxe 6 Millions d'unités vendues
The latest boxed charts data from Japan is now available courtesy of Famitsu, and once again, we can see that the Switch is still comfortably dominating in the region both with hardware and software sales. robot astro is the only representative from Sony’s PS5 platform.
Frankly, it’s mad that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe keeps selling so well. More than 7 years after its Switch debut with mere months (weeks..?!) to go until we learn more about the Switch successor, the arcade racer has now surpassed a mind-boggling 6 million units sold in the region. Worldwide, bien sûr, the latest data confirms that the game is now sitting well above 60 millions d'unités vendues.
Cela dit, Animal Crossing: Nouveaux horizons is slowly creeping towards that tasty 8 million d'étapes…
For the full breakdown, here’s a look at the latest top ten in full:
Looking at hardware for the week, the numbers for the Switch are slightly up from the previous data, while PS5 numbers are (surprise, surprise) slightly down. Sony’s price hike for its platform clearly hasn’t gone down too well, and it’ll be interesting to see what the sales figures are like as we get closer to the end of the year and the eventual release of the ‘Switch 2’.
