 New sales data is in from Japan for last week Which is a big week for switch because it included the launch of ring fit adventure a new game from Nintendo That's trying to make working out a bit more fun. Of course, we know they've done this in the past with things like we fit And also the launch for third-party wise of the Witcher 3 wild hunt complete edition That is obviously a big third-party release on Nintendo switch And there actually was another brand-new release in Japan anyways story of season friends of Mineral Town from Marvelous That was a game that came out in Japan as well. And let's just hop right into the numbers because Obviously Switch has been dominating in Japan. I believe pretty much since launch for the most part There's been a spare week here there where PlayStation 4 or something Actually had more games in the top 10 Switch has nine of the top 10 games including one through seven. So For starters ring fit adventure as you're seeing on screen right now debut at number one moving 68,497 Units number two was story of season friends of Mineral Town at 66,193 Units Dragon Quest 11 echoes of an elusive age s definitive edition is right there at 15,744 units at number three number four is Disney Tee-sum-tee-sum or zoom-zoom festival By Bandai Namco games man. I think I played that game at E3 Interesting to see that in the top 10, but here it is at number four with 11,824 units Minecraft the Nintendo switch version of it again by Microsoft game studios move 9,020 units at number five at number six We have Mario Kart 8 Deluxe the game that just keeps on giving and doesn't seem to ever go away moving 8,305 units at games almost at 2.5 million in Japan. That's pretty impressive Super Mario maker two is at number seven moving 7,964 units it's actually an 11% bump for that game We'll see if that game ever hits a million in Japan That'll be very interesting then finally we have a PlayStation 4 game at number eight This game is one that's been sticking around on the charts for a while monster hunter world ice-borne master edition third-party game by Capcom This is I believe the full version edition includes like all the DLC For the ice board stuff that's got 7,468 units moving there down 20 percent week over week But I mean it there wasn't much going on this week that switch stuff at number nine We have Super Smash Rose ultimate still sticking around 9% bump this week moving 7,312 and at number 10 We do have the Witcher 3 wild hunt complete edition debuting with 7,218 units on switch now obviously that is a late port of a game that's been all for years and These kind of games is Western style RPGs don't tend to do extremely well in Japan So in the fact that it's even in the top 10 to me is actually pretty impressive Now if you look further Down and glance at the hardware sales will notice that Nintendo Switch sales are actually down week over week I moved to 54,067 units compared to 56,680 units and this looks like they're combining Nintendo Switch and turn switch light. You can see the breakdown light so less than the Nintendo Switch normal version, you know the one that can dock and all that but that's alright lifetime to date They had the switch set in a 9.6 million Units which is a healthy amount ahead of PlayStation 4 8.4 still, you know a decent ways behind 3ds But 3ds was off to see on the market a lot longer of 24 plus million units sold And it's way ahead of Vita and Xbox one Interesting Xbox ones actually over 100,000 units. I didn't know that that's pretty that's pretty interesting considering that it like Hardly ever sells although they did saw 142 units this week, which is like double from last week. That's a that's interesting now One thing I do want to talk about here As you're seeing some gameplay on the screen of the Witcher 3 I know I've been showing a lot of the Witcher 3 lately this comes from I believe a youtube channel. I'll put a link down in the description for it I am very curious about The Witcher 3 and switch in particular and Ring Fit Adventure I want to kind of focus on those two because we also, you know, not too long ago over the weekend got sales for Out of the UK for these games for last week and they don't give exact numbers in the UK but Ring Fit Adventure debuted at number three and The Witcher 3 the Wild Hunt definitive edition all that stuff debuted at number five now That number five actually includes all versions including the ones on on xbox and playstation But apparently 99 of the sales increase that week was from nintendo switch version Which is interesting because that's a really good debut for the Witcher 3 Wild Hunt in the UK And it's interesting for a multitude of reasons like just focusing on that and we'll get we'll get to Ring Fit Adventure in a moment You had to start to wonder If cd project red's first attempt at a nintendo switch game even as a late port Is performing well enough and now we we're not gonna have npd numbers for a while in this, you know Or until like the middle of next month, but I think that the Witcher 3 Wild Hunt editions actually probably outperforming expectations For cd project red and if that's the case you have to start wondering how serious are they gonna take the switch moving forward because this was Previously their biggest game ever and now we have cyberpunk 2077 coming out And that's going to be their new biggest game ever and we have to start wondering Would they do something like bring cyberpunk 2077 over, you know Would they wait for a pro or switch to or would they just actually just bring it over to the current switch because While it is a current gen game and it does look a bit more technically impressive I guess than the witcher 3 which is interesting to say considering how technically impressive the witcher 3 is Uh, you have to wonder would they consider it and they were actually asked about cyberpunk 2077 coming to nintendo switch And here's what they said. So cd project red's john, uh, maimus, uh, did an interview with game spot and, uh, You know, he said that the team had even considered a game like witcher 3 would be possible on switch And it's unlikely that cyberpunk 2077 would be coming but here's exactly what he said and this is why There's some hope it says who would have thought a game like the witcher 3 would be possible on switch So who knows? I guess we'll see if we decide to put cyberpunk 2077 on the switch If we can actually do it, but probably not. So what he's saying is basically they haven't really considered cyberpunk 2077 for switch That's that's what it sounds like. It sounds like it hasn't even been a thought of theirs But he has said he also didn't think the witcher 3 Would ever be on switch either. So, you know, if they can pull off cyberpunk 2077 on switch They just might do it. Uh, but you know, he he's he's kind of just assuming without attempting to do it That they probably won't bring cyberpunk 2077 to switch, but it's not ruled out entirely He's saying hey look the witcher 3 is on switch. So who knows maybe we can uh, that is definitely Um, not necessarily a death knell to the idea of this game coming to switch And I know what a lot of people are going to say Do we should we even want cyberpunk 2077 on switch? I mean look at the witcher 3 look how blurry it can look at times. Look at this. Look at that Bottom line is people are really enjoying the witcher 3 on switch Everyone I have talked to that has played the witcher 3 on switch is thoroughly impressed by this game on switch not just impressed at What the game's able to do and what it's able to look like on the platform But especially when they're playing in handheld This is what they wanted They wanted this game in portable form like that and it just works and they don't really have too many complaints about it so I think people look at the witcher through through wild condition. They say hey look a cyberpunk 2077 can be at least this good in portable mode You know, even if you know when you blow it up on a tv, it doesn't look great But in portable mode, it looks this good. Why wouldn't we want it? And I think that's what uh People are kind of hoping is that some magic can happen again because I I have seen some developers out there Who are playing witcher 3 on switch literally put up on twitter things like you know, this is like magic Right like what what's happening with the witcher 3 on switch like this is magic This is some voodoo crap. We have no idea how this is made possible And they did it and so who knows we shouldn't rule out the idea of cyberpunk 2077 coming to switch and On top of that, you know when when you're thinking about why would they bring that game over at the witcher 3 Wildland edition appears to be selling extremely well And when you have a game from a third party company selling extremely well You know that that third party company's got to be thinking about what else they can bring over now There's other games that they can bring over like they can bring over the witcher 2 from the 360 days Or maybe even remastered witcher 1 or something So you can get the whole witcher series on switch They could also bring over I think they have quent as a game as a separate card game that they could bring over But I honestly think you know, they got to start looking towards the new games for for switch like cyberpunk And even if it doesn't come out for a year or two I think it still might be almost a worthwhile Investment because even those people that that have already played it on playstation 4 xbox one Maybe even the next gen systems or pc They might want a more portable version of it. And I think that's what we're seeing with the witcher 3 I think there's some people who are actually double dipping in witcher 3 just so they could have it with them Wherever they go because it's just it's just such a great game people don't mind replaying A masterpiece like the witcher 3 Now ring fit adventure That's a that's a fun one I have watched a few preview videos I think one by game explain And a couple other places and everyone seems to really like ring fit adventure like it's not It's a gimmick You're holding those giant rings. Let's just be honest. It's a gimmick, but it's a gimmick that makes sense It's a gimmick that works It's a gimmick that you do feel like you're working out But you're also having fun while working out and I think that is a big step up Over what we fit did because I don't remember playing we fit back in the day And I enjoyed it for what it was, you know with the balance the balance board and all that And they had some mini games and hula hooping and stuff like that that was fun But it wasn't the same kind of fun that I have with other With other things like if I'm going to work out, you know, I'd rather dance or something You know, I can just dance or something like that So apparently they found a way to make working out extremely fun And even though you're squeezing this giant ring thing. It's a real workout and I'm excited to see if this can become over time like the new we fit I don't think it's ever going to be as big as we fit or as popular as we fit But I think that Nintendo's kind of got like a sleeper hit on their hands With ring fit adventure. I could see it moving a couple million units worldwide Which to me would be a pretty big success for any workout game, let alone one that Nintendo's publishing So this is just one to keep keep your eye on. We'll see what it does in North America and all that Obviously, we know we have UK and Japan at least a frame of an idea of how it's doing there during launch So I'm excited by ring fit adventure I will probably pick it up myself for those who don't know I haven't like on the weight loss trail and working out and all that and now I'm clear to do full workout So who knows ring fit adventure might just become part of my daily routine for a little bit as I test it out But I'm pretty excited About this game about Witcher 3 and who knows what the future holds man There is so many games coming out. We can't forget Luigi's Mansion 3 Guys, we're just eight days away from Luigi's Mansion 3 Can you believe that also eight days away from halloween because halloween's my favorite holiday of the year folks Think I might be uh the rom burgundy over here Anyways, all right. Thank you guys so much for tuning in and I'll catch you in the next video
