Every Thursday we share the weekly Famitsu sales charts, which tracks physical boxed game sales and hardware sales in Japan. This week’s chart covers April 7 – 13, as Super Mario Party Jamboree spends its 12th week at the top spot on the chart. It has fluctuated up and down over the months, but this week marks a cumulative three entire months on top of the chart for the latest Mario Party entry. With an additional 7,000 sales this week pushing the game past 1.26 million copies sold physically in Japan alone, it seems Nintendo really is the life of the party.
At second place was Monster Hunter Wilds, selling a little over 6,000 more copies as it inches ever closer to 800,000 total physical Japanese sales. It currently sits at 794,000 units sold. The rest of the top ten is the typical evergreen forest of Nintendo Switch titles – with the exception of #8, where fantasy JRPG Progress Orders from Bushiroad secured a place on the chart with 3,000 units sold of its Switch release.
