Famitsu has released its weekly charts for video game software and hardware sales, and the week ending May 19 has been a fairly slow one. Days Gone, which has been on top of the charts ever since it launched a month ago, has finally relinquished its hold, while the newly released PS4 version of Ys: Memories of Celceta debuts on top with over 13,000 copies sold.

Days Gone, meanwhile, has fallen to fifth place, selling just over 6,000 copies across the week. The evergreen Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are in second and third place, with sales of over 8,000 units and over 7,000 units respectively. Other consistent Nintendo performers like Pokemon Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee!, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Splatoon 2, and New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe also feature in the top 10.

On the hardware front, the Nintendo Switch continues to reign supreme, leading the charts with sales of over 34,000 units across the week. The PS4, meanwhile, sold over 9,500 units.
