Nintendo Dominates Week of Game Sales in Japan, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury Leads

Famitsu has released its findings on the most recent software sales for the week ending February 21, 2021, and Nintendo has yet again dominated. Just like the Nintendo Switch accounted for 87% of all console sales in Japan in 2020, the Nintendo Switch accounted for 87% of the top 30 games sold over the past week in Japan, with Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury taking the top spot.

After being number one last week, the highly reviewed Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury again was the highest sold game in Japan for the week of February 15 through February 21 with 97,955 units sold. But along with the success of Mario and his pals, the Nintendo Switch commanded sales across the board. Of the top 30 games on the Famitsu list, Nintendo’s hybrid console charted with 26 games.

After Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury at number one, Momotaro Dentetsu: Showa, Heisei, Reiwa mo Teiban! is at number two. The third game is Ring Fit Adventure, which should soon hit two million copies sold in Japan alone. Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are number four and five respectively, two mainstays on the list that are also the top two selling Switch games of all time.

Super Smash Bros Ultimate is the sixth highest-selling game, and Splatoon 2, which of course just received an announcement for a third entry into the now trilogy, is at number seven. Minecraft and Pokemon Sword and Shield take spots eight and nine respectively and Little Nightmares 2 rounds out the top ten, after being the second-highest selling game last week.

The first non-Switch game on the list is the PS4 version of the very well-received Little Nightmares 2 at number 14. Meanwhile, NieR: Automata Game of the YoRHa Edition is all the way down as the 25 best-selling game of the week next on the PS4. Nioh 2 Complete Edition at 28 and Dragon Quest XI S at 30, both on the PS4.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is out now, exclusively on the Nintendo Switch.
