Last week’s sales data for Japan has come in, and Yokai Watch 2 has been dethroned after seven weeks at number one, moving to number 3 with (a still impressive) 68,000 sales.

Mario Kart 8 and Hyrule Warriors are both still in the top twenty, though they have slipped down considerably to numbers eight and fourteen, respectively. The numbers themselves speak volumes as Mario Kart 8 is a stayer, retaining a similar number to last week at almost 12,000, but Hyrule Warriors has moved half as many this week with 7,600 units.

In hardware, sales have picked up this week, although the biggest increases were seen in Sony’s platforms. The 3DS remains on top, with over 30,000 sales, and the Wii U remains at third position to lead the home consoles, selling slightly fewer than last week with over 8,500 sales.

And that’s the way things were last week in Japan. Check out the full list below and let us know your thoughts on the sales numbers.
