PS5 showing its dominance, the best selling console everywhere on this planet including the getting irrelevant Japan market. Tops both Software and Hardware sales like the power player it always is. Next week the weak mobile phone game console AKA Nintendo Switch only ontop cause of supply issues of the PS5 showing how popular the PS5 worldwide is.

Here is the complete top 10 according to Famitsu:

Software

  1. [PS4] Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (SIE, 11/13/20) – 84,475 (New)
  2. [PS4] Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (Ubisoft, 11/10/20) – 45,055 (New)
  3. [NSW] Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin (Marvelous, 11/12/20) – 32,906 (New)
  4. [NSW] Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Nintendo, 03/20/20) – 32,585 (5,974,018)
  5. [NSW] Pikmin 3 Deluxe (Nintendo, 10/30/20) – 31,073 (270,347)
  6. [NSW] Ring Fit Adventure (Nintendo, 10/18/19) – 24,115 (1,807,723)
  7. [PS4] Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin (Marvelous, 11/12/20) – 22,955 (New)
  8. [PS4] Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales (SIE, 11/12/20) – 22,882 (New)
  9. [NSW] Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory (Square Enix, 11/12/20) – 22,813 (New)
  10. [PS5] Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition (SIE, 11/12/20) – 18,640 (New)

Hardware:

  1. PlayStation 5 – 103,901 (New)
  2. Switch – 93,671
  3. Switch Lite – 22,596
  4. Xbox Series X – 16,247 (New)
  5. PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 14,181 (New)
  6. Xbox Series S – 4,287 (New)
  7. PlayStation 4 – 2,903
  8. New 2DS LL (including 2DS) – 474
  9. PlayStation 4 Pro – 71
  10. New 3DS LL – 23
  11. Xbox One X – 14
  12. Xbox One S – 11

Also seems like in Japan Sony is slowly phasing out PS4Pro. Well the console is in a pretty weird spot stronger than PS4 but weaker and no price difference compared to PS5 Digital. Greatness awaits, hopefully Bloodborne 2 soon cause I have been waiting a while now 😅😅

Winning by 2k is a huge victory in cow land. Japanese sales are meaningful again.

Good job on posting this. I was considering doing so myself, but figured somebody else might want the honour with it being launch week.

Impressive stuff, and a tight battle for the number 10 spot with Miles Morales just beating Demon Souls by a whisker (33 copies!)

Xbox sold 20k series X/S back to 10 units very soon. They should just stick with xcloud and be done with it is it really worth it.

It barely outsold the Switch and OP thinks its domination? 😂

The Switch ruled for 23 months in a row and it was only beaten by few thousand units. What is funnier, Japanese sales matters again, well until it doesn't.🤣

Pretty sure PS5 is only at the top due to its release. Japan is no longer a console market and are heavily portable gaming oriented. Nintendo focused on portable. I expect Switch to regain the top shortly.

What's more surprising is the X and S managed to pass 20k units sold combined for their first month in Japan.

Pretty small difference there, certainly nothing that I would call “domination”.

That's not what you call domination when Nintendo still takes up half of the market and will likely take the top spot again once the new console paint wears out.

New console and it barely beats the switch. Sony continues to decline in japan. To be honest they deserve it as they barely care. Very soon there gonna be in MS territory.

@Archangel3371: if you’re adding in the Switch Lite to the mix you’d need to add in the PS5 Digital. Which does give PS5 the win.

It’s a sad sad sad win though, like by 1000. But if there was more stock how big would the gap be? 🤷‍♂️

@Ibacai: Ah, I didn’t see that they had the PS5 and PS5 Digital separate there. Anyway yeah the difference is pretty small there, not much “domination” to be had for sure.

Nintendo will do fine as they always have. Their consoles sell fast because they have a lot of great games and it's an affordable price. And Sony has always done better internationally than Xbox, especially in Japan.

Lets be real, Japanese gamers are disgustingly casual gamers and the Switch is their perfect on-the-bus-machine. It will outsell the rest until the Switch 2 comes out. Other systems trying to outsell it is like MS trying to be big in Japan, its just not a thing.

As a cow, i give Japan to sheep. Take it and go away with your hd ports filled handheld that runs everything in under 25fps.

Ugh, under 25fps... the reason I cannot play most Legend of Zelda titles. I believe OoT was actually 20fps. Makes me nauseous.

118K for all PS5s vs 116K for Switch + SL, on launch week. Thats not that impressive. PS4 sold over 300K launch week.

And only one game cracked the Top 10. Oof.

So the PS5 beating the Switch by not even 2K (Switch + Switch Lite, PS5 + PS5 Digital) on its release week is a domination?

No wonder Sony packed up and went to America, as its home country treats them like the red headed stepchild.

I mean they even put an American in charge of PS, and can't stop lying to the public, he's already brought great shame to Sony LOL.

It would be really bad if a new console at launch did not outsell a competitor that has been out for years.
