The latest sales data from Japan shows another healthy week of sales for the Nintendo Switch. This week, the hybrid console sold over 164,000 units, 40,000 more than last week. This boost came despite competing console releases, and no major new releases for itself.
In software, the only new title on a Nintendo console was Sumikko Gurashi for the Switch, which came in sixteenth place. Pokemon Ultra Sun/Moon was Nintendo’s best-selling title, selling another 106,094 copies for the 3DS to push it over the one million lifetime sales goal. Super Mario Odyssey, which came in at fourth position with 95,816 copies, should hit the same target next week.
