The Media Create charts for hardware and software sales in Japan for the week ending December 2 are in, and it’s not surprising to see at all that Pokemon Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Eevee! is once again at the top of the pile, as it has been for two weeks running since its launch now, with some very impressive figures.

The duo of Pokemon titles collectively sold nearly 95,000 units in Japan during the week, which includes bundle sales as well. Meanwhile, Atlus’ 3DS exclusive dungeon crawling crossover RPG, Persona Q2, also debuted strongly in the charts, ranking at #2 with almost 80,000 units sold in the week.

Super Mario Party saw a massive surge in sales, moving up from fifth place last week to third place this week, with almost twice as many sales, at almost 50,000 units sold. Meanwhile, Battlefield 5, which debuted in second place last week, has dropped down to fourth place, with just a little over 20,000 units sold.

On the hardware front, the Nintendo Switch continues to perform very impressively. It saw a massive surge in sales two weeks back when Pokemon Let’s Go launch, and continued its impressive sales last week as well. This week saw a rise in those numbers, with over 120,000 units sold. The PS4 was the second highest selling system, selling nearly 25,000 units (base model and Pro combined).
