<< How to read and understand sales

 

New releases in Japan were practically non-existent, and so Yo-kai Watch enjoyed another week at the #1 spot on the software sales chart. The game sold another 60,000 copies, bringing total sales to nearly 920,000 copies at retail.

 

Meanwhile, the rest of the top-20 software sales chart saw the return of a couple of games that we haven’t seen in a while, including Attack on Titan, which we now know has sold 292,000 copies at retail.

 

Given that Attack on Titan was sold out for a number of weeks following its release, the game has likely sold a fair few copies via the Nintendo eShop, but just how many is unknown, as Spike Chunsoft haven’t released sales figures yet.

 

The top-20 software sales chart for last week is as follows:
