The Japanese gaming market is back, baby!
Nintendo continues to reassert its dominance over Japan with the Switch and 3DS.
And it managed this milestone faster than the PS3 did.
Nintendo takes top position on hardware and software charts on the back of Splatoon 2.
Except for games like Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, and Nintendo games.
The launch of the New 2DS XL mixes things up.
The regular sized one, not the XL one.
PS4 gets a clear field as Switch continues to suffer from shortages.
Xbox's success in Japan at this point seems to be a lost cause.
'Japan remains an extremely important market.'
Buoyed by Final Fantasy 14: Stormblood.
ARMS' debut almost outsells Tekken 7 and Street Fighter 5 debuts put together.
Another quiet week...
Tekken 7 sees dramatic decline over previous games in the series, but tops charts anyway.
Oh, yes please.
Switch rules the roost, but Mario Kart 8 Deluxe finally falls to second place.
The reign continues uninterrupted.
Dreary first place finish.
At this point, is anyone even surprised?
No Blue Shell to stop either of them.
