Ramsey ain’t around to post the Japanese sales charts like usual, but it’s not like there’s anything of interest going on overseas. The Crew 2 was the biggest new release of the week, shifting over 17,000 units. A bunch of evergreen Nintendo titles helped prop the Switch up, while the PlayStation 4 could only muster 18,000 or so units.
Sony’s home console is up year-over-year in the Land of the Rising Sun, but it’s not exactly enjoying the greatest summer. At least Detroit: Become Human continues to move copies – could it scrape past 100,000 units when all’s said and done?

And for some reason, New Gundam Breaker is still selling...poor japs...
Ys VIII charted somewhere on this damn system.
Probably because it's actually available at retailers in Japan...
@SoulsBourne128 I dont understand them one bit they dont buy great games. But if it has a name or is mediocre then they run to the store. 😂
@Knuckles-Fajita It seems to be doing quite well in the U.S., actually. Might even end up outselling the PS4 version.
The fact that it pretty much flopped in Japan and still charted is pretty telling, though.
@Ralizah Im seeing more buzz about it certainly.
Problem is finding a copy
