That is so weird.

A western made game being on top in Japan.

Yep. Another Wii U like everyone said.

PS3 beats Wii60 once again.

@Nike_Air: Switch beats PS4 once again

I fully espect software sales to keep declining

I buy most of my games digitally now, some sales are hard to pass up

JP really loves them squid kids. Essentially 2-1 lifetime over BotW, unless there’s such a draw to digital that NPD is meaningless.

Lost Sphear ouch.. both versions flopped.. I Am Setsuna did much better on its Japan release

Edit: for a little comparison

06./00. [PS4] Project Setsuna <RPG> (Square Enix) {2016.02.18} (¥4.800) - 33.629 / NEW

07./00. [PSV] Project Setsuna <RPG> (Square Enix) {2016.02.18} (¥4.800) - 27.994 / NEW

Had no idea Lost Sphear was out in Japan already.

whoa, the X1 outsold the PS3

well at least we know that 71 people had made a huge mistake

Damn those xbox numbers are sad. TLHBO

How long must we wait for an english release Trails of Cold Steel 3 ?!!!??

Also Xbox 1 wins over PS3 and WiiU. Nuff Said. Mic Drop. Peace Out

PS3 and Wii U are both out of production and won't be tracked anymore as of January 1st. New 3DS will also be dropped.
