Media Create released its weekly hardware and software charts related to the Japanese market between Jan. 14 and Jan. 20. Last week saw the release of quite a few games, so the charts are quite interesting.

Below you can see the software chart. As usual, the second number for each game represents lifetime sales, when applicable.

Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown – PS4 – 202,379/NEW New Super Mario Bros U. Deluxe – Switch – 88,840/255,143 Super Smash Bros. Infinite – Switch – 49,533/2,726,273 Yakuza 4 – PS4 – 18,440/NEW Super Mario Party – Switch – 16,752/971,945 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Switch – 15,062/2,085,952 Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu & Eevee – Switch – 12,351/1,427,298 Dragon Quest Builders 2 – Switch – 11,490/210,493 Minecraft – Switch – 11,107/573,451 Splatoon 2 – Switch – 9,469/2,903,350 Dragon Quest Builders 2 – PS4 – 9,330/206,392 The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Switch – 7,731/1,263,023 Sword Art Online Fatal Bullet Complete Edition – PS4 – 7,474/NEW Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds – PS4 – 7,447/NEW Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition – PS4 – 7,446/48,955 Go Vacation – Switch – 5,151/47,862 Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition – Switch – 4,598/31,186 Judgment – PS4 – 4,527/244,820 Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 – PS4 – 4,341/524,140 Taiko no Tatsujin Drum’n Fun – Switch – 3,720/294,679

Below you can check out the hardware chart for the same period:

Switch: 71,139 PS4: 9,505 PS4 Pro: 6,958 New 2DS XL: 3,767 PS Vita: 1,755 New 3DS XL: 1,514 2DS: 158 Xbox One X: 94 Xbox One: 24

On the hardware side, while most platforms were affected by the usual post-holiday slump, the Switch keeps going quite strong, which is quite interesting.

On the software side, Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown makes a triumphant entrance with over 200,000 copies sold, which is very good for this kind of semi-niche game. Looks like Japanese fans were hungry for a return to Strangereal.

On the other hand, Yakuza 4 made a mediocre debut on the Media Create charts, but that’s normal since Japanese gamers aren’t keen on HD remasters that add very little or nothing at all to a game, unless they belong to massive franchises.

Interestingly, Dragon Quest Builders 2 seems to be doing slightly better on Nintendo Switch than on PS4, and Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition shows the opposite performance.
