Sales ranking announced by Famitsu. This time we bring you a summary of estimated weekly sales figures for game software and hardware from June 9th to June 15th, 2025 in Japan.

For the latest hardware, Nintendo Switch 2 is doing well with over 150,000 units sold this week. Mario Kart World released as a launch title, also sold over 130,000 units, taking the top spot for the second consecutive week. Cumulative sales are now at 917,466 units.

In fourth place is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe which celebrated its 8th anniversary in April 2025, making two titles in the series into the top 10. Incidentally the cumulative sales of this title this week is 6,347,853 units, so how close will Mario Kart World get to this record? Or when will it overtake it? It's interesting to see.

Among titles in their second week of release, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma ranked third.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, which feature two games from the Legend of Zelda series in high resolution and high frame rate with additional elements optimized for play on the Nintendo Switch 2 also made it into 8th and 9th place respectively.

Launch week Switch 2 sales in Japan was a little under 1/3 of WW launch sales. If the same ratio holds for week 2 it would point to week 2 sales of the Switch 2 being around 500K.

That would put Switch 2 WW sales at around 4M after week 2.

Also, Mario Kart World overtook retail sales of MH Wilds in Japan last week to become the best selling retail game of 2025 in Japan.

Probably close to 4.5 Million right now WW. In Japan is completely sold out and the sales for the International version of the console begin this week. Probably flat numbers for next week.
 
Insane numbers, charting above Switch again. We all deserve Sony an apologize maybe?
Yes we do. I always knew that PS5 would be slow and steady. Modern games take a long time to make. It was only a matter of time before PlayStation regained its rightful status as the king of Japanese gaming.
 
Will be insane to see PS5 and Switch fight it out with their weekly 10K sales rest of the year while Switch 2 will rack up millions of sales.
 
Nintendo will always win in Japan but the Ps5 numbers is getting decent. Japan is just waiting for an official price drop for ps5.
 
6K people still bought MK8 this past week in Japan :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Don't ever underestimate Nintendo fans

Minecraft gonna hit 4 million physical by september/october

Nightreign a flop in Japan? Roughly 60 k sales total? I cant tell. Way below Elden Ring numbers.

Also worth mentioning, My Nintendo shop numbers aren't included here, tho I don't know what percentage they would add to the retail sales. 15%? 20% more?

But nobody wanted to buy the Switch 2 because of the price of the console and $80 games..

Switch 2 is basically a Mario Kart World+ Zelda enhanced machine? Where are the others S2 games?
Donkey Kong Bananza comes out in July. Other Switch 2 first party exclusive games coming out in 2025 is Kirby Air Riders and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, also Splatoon Raiders could come out in 2025 but is not dated as of yet.

Pretty poor performance from third parties. Its not like Switch where the lineup was very limited, Switch 2 owners have access to the full Swich library and so late ports on their own aren't going to cut it.
 
If Sony is wise, since Ps5 is already 5 years old, its time for a price drop at least in Japan version of Ps5.
They are not subsidising consoles anymore, plus the system is 73k/80k/120k in Japan, it has received 3 price increases and barely any constant release of first party games.

So yeah, the numbers are decent considering the above but they're not great.
