The answer is no. Still disappointed that Switch isn't over 200k, but the holiday effect is in full swing!

PS3 beats Wii60 once again.

Did they have a mega sale on ps4 pro or something?

The increment in PS4 sales has a name and it's called "Monster Hunter World"

How I wish Yakuza Kiwami 2 had a us release date

@techhog89: bu.... but... It's not making 200,000 units weekly? But still bearing ps4 first year sales in Japan

Same. Kiwami 2 looks so good. I really hope we don't have to wait like a year to play it. :(

Switch is obviously doomed.

That PS4 Pro MH special edition and controller are so sweet.... the dashboard theme is great too.

almost all top 20 switch software are nintendo's

That's not an accomplishment. PS4 had a terrible first year there. The reason that it's disappointing that it's under 200k is that it's rapidly falling behind 3DS's first year as a result. 3DS managed nearly half a million in its first Christmas week while Switch might not even get close due to supply.

Monster Hunter World edition

monster hunter and yakuza system sellers for PS4. i suspect it's more monster hunter than yakuza. this same spike will be seen again on monster hunter launch day.

switch sales went up which is a good sign.

pokemon selling another million to add to being the most popular franchise ever.

mario odyssey outselling mario kart and zelda! it's on the way to beating splatoon as the number 1 switch game in japan!

@KBFloYd: The ps4 poo spike happened due to the LE Monster Hunter World ps4 poo

lol poo :P

Lol. For a moment I thought real Yakuza encourage people to buy PS4.

Yakuza 6 is finally getting a US release on March 20th. So I feel like SEGA doesn't want to announce Kiwami 2 so it doesn't take away from the release of 6 here.

Maybe a few months after 6 releases they will announce Kiwami 2 for US

Comparing a console that every man and his dog owns to Switch....lmao...

I'm glad Yakuza Kiwami is doing good in Japan. My copy should arrive next week. I can't wait!

Best mental image ever!

Yakuza on the top- like it should be. This masterpiece game with masterpiece story is woth every penny.
