Japan: Top 10 for the Nintendo eShop (September 19th – 25th, 2016)
In Japan, Nintendo is regularly posting weekly rankings for the Nintendo eShop on its website (more precisely, its Topics section). Obviously, there’s no actual sales data, but they give us a good idea of what Japanese players are buying on the Nintendo eShop. Also, please note the rankings below include digital pre-orders, which explains why some unreleased games are charting.
On Nintendo 3DS, Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition is stillat the top, while on Wii U, Discovery is still dominating sales (though Minecraft: Wii U Edition looks ready for a comeback at #1!).
