Super Mario Party Jamboree Enjoys Bumper Japanese Launch with Over 227,000 Units Sold

Famitsu has released its latest weekly charts for hardware and physical software sales in Japan, and where the latter are concerned, Super Mario Party Jamboree has enjoyed an impressive debut. The title has debuted on top of the charts, selling over 227,000 physical units in Japan upon its release. Interestingly enough, that’s also a notably bigger launch than previous Mario Party titles that released for Switch, with Super Mario Party having sold over 126,000 physical units in Japan upon release, and Mario Party Superstars having managed over 163,000 units.

Meanwhile, Metaphor: ReFantazio, which topped charts last week, has dropped to cumulative sales of over 16,000 units for the week across PS5 and PS4, while Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO drops down to over 12,000 units sold, and Konami and Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake to just a little over 4,000 units.

In terms of hardware sales, the Nintendo Switch continues to lead the way, emerging as the bestselling console in Japan for the week with over 58,000 units sold. PS5, meanwhile, managed over 11,000 units, trailing behind in second place.
