Japan: more sales data for Week 19 2019, Nintendo Switch (Media Create, Dengeki, Famitsu)

Here’s the latest sales data reports from Media Create, Dengeki, and Famitsu!

Famitsu (Nintendo Switch)

This week, Famitsu shared a special report about the Nintendo Switch finally outselling the Nintendo Switch. As of Week 19, the console has sold 8 125 637 units in Japan, and is now the best-selling current platform in Japan. In comparison, the PlayStation 4 (including the Pro Model) has sold 8 077 756 units.

The Nintendo Switch reached that milestone 115 weeks after launch. In comparison, after the same amount of weeks, the Wii had sold 7 814 000 units, the PlayStation 3 was at 2 780 000 units sold, and the PlayStation 4 at only 2 677 000 units. The Wii was Nintendo’s most popular home console worldwide, and so far in Japan, it’s currently outselling it.

Media Create – Day 1 Sell-through (Week 20)

This week, we have the Day 1 sell-through for just one Nintendo Switch game:

  • [NSW] Guilty Gear 20th Anniversary Edition <FTG> (Arc System Works) (¥3.200) – 20%. Worse debut than expected, it seems (and it’s unlikely retailers had high expectations to begin with…)

Dengeki (Week 19)

Dengeki report that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate sold about 11 000 units this week, bringing total sales to 3.15 million units. It’s already outsold previous entries in the series, and so far, it’s selling rather steadily, growing alongside the Nintendo Switch market. Other than that, there was not much movement in the top of the chart.

For the first time in 10 weeks, there was not a single new release, which is why it’s no big surprise sales are down (especially with the Golden Week now over):

  • Hardware: 50 000 units (-39.4%)
  • Software: 189 000 units (-54.2%)

The Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 account for no less than 90% of the market, and the trend is definitely not going to reverse any time soon.
