Japanese software/hardware sales for Apr. 24th to May 7th, 2023

Wondering how the Switch held up in Japan over the last two weeks? Switch titles made up 8 of the top 10 best-selling software list. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has retaken the number one spot, which can likely be attributed to The Super Mario Bros. Movie being released overseas during this time period. As for the rest of the charts, it’s quite standard, with top-selling titles like Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe, Pokémon Scarlet/Violet, Splatoon 3, and Nintendo Switch Sports making their usual appearance.

As for hardware, the Switch OLED holds the top spot, with Sony’s PlayStation 5 placing in second. The standard Switch placed in third, and the Switch Lite took fifth, right behind the PS5 Digital Edition.
