The latest sales data from Japan is in and last week was fairly quiet in the region, with no major releases across Nintendo’s platforms. This left Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to lead the way for the big N, hitting second place in the top twenty chart. ARMS follows in third place, with Breath of the Wild coming in at number six. The 3DS had seven entries in the top twenty to help represent Nintendo.
In hardware, the Switch remained the top-selling console again, moving another 26,256 units. The 3DS retained third position with 11,849 units.
Check out the full list below and let us know your thoughts on the way things were in Japan last week.
