Grafici giapponesi: Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Continues Its Winning Streak

If the pre-release backlash regarding the price of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD was anything to go by, we might have expected the game to crash and burn mere days after it launched. Ahimè, the internet is and forever will be its own little bubble, and the game has topped the Japanese charts once again with a total of 35,256 copie vendute.

The only newcomer this week is the sublime metroidvania ENDER MAGNOLIA: Bloom in the Mist, which naturally performed much better on the Switch than the PS5, though both managed to crack the top 10. Otherwise, Super Mario Party Jamboree continues to perform well, while Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is inching ever closer to that 1 million unit milestone.
