[Fake]

PS4 games on top 10

 

[YukiOnna]

Hope Fate/Samurai Remnant does well for Koei & Type Moon. Have sunk in 10 hours a day since release and having a blast.

 

[Kusarigama]

I am surprised that 5 non switch games are in top 10

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Good week for PS5 software it seems! ;o Also, good HW sales for both NSW and PS5 although the former has fallen a bit week-on-week.
Surprised to see Series S moving 3x more units than Series X though.

 

[jroc74]

The apocalypse is upon us....multiple PlayStation games in the top 10.

 

[T_T]

#2 is this. Why?

 

[Luminoth-4545]

 

[Labadal]

Seems that these are poor software numbers, no? For the new titles, I mean.

Isn't that bomba for Fate and Ys X?

Infinity Strash seems like it wasn't a great game.

 

[mckmas8808]

Why not add up all the Xbox Series consoles, PS5 consoles, and Switch consoles together as the MAIN number?

 

[RoboFu]

#2 is this. Why?

Japanese loves both the manga and 3D anime fighters

 

[Saber]

Actually impressed that Pikimin hold it for that long(still holding on the top list though).
Even more surprise that PS4 showed in the list.

 

[Kerotan]

Another humongous week for the ps5. Keep on keeping up!

This shouldn't be a surprise anymore. It's Microsoft's main console.

#2 is this. Why?

 

[a multicultural team of v]

 

[Virex]

They love the shit out of Dragon Quest. It's like Fifa in the west. Even if it would score 0/10 people would still buy it.

Seems that it's doing pretty well! Koei Temco just posted this on their Twitter/X account

 

[Mibu no ookami]

This is really impressive when you consider the PS5 is 60,000 yen in Japan. You can get the non oled switch for almost half of that... not to mention the switch lite for 22,000 yen.

 

[Deerock71]

#2 is this. Why?

I've never played it, know nothing about it. Waifus?

 

[T_T]

I've never played it, know nothing about it. Waifus?

It seems that the Dragon Quest in its name does all the selling

 

[Shouta]

I've never played it, know nothing about it. Waifus?

It's a game for the most popular manga based on dragon quest. It ran during the golden age of jump with series like Dragon Ball, Yu yu Hakusho, etc. It has dragon quest in its name but it is a tried and true shonen manga that is executed extremely well.

Praise be, love this game a lot. Great opening week.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

 

[jroc74]

Wait...Xbox ...dropped?

That seems wild, regardless of how much its selling. It felt like it was doing better, recently as least.

 

[Sojiro]

Is Ys X low? I don't know what the series typically pulls, but that seems a bit low. I am really looking forward to X, so it's a bummer to not see it pulling higher numbers.

I don't know anything about this game but its quite rare these days to see publishers happy with 300k sales on first week,good news
