Famitsu has provided the latest look at the Japanese boxed charts, and despite dropping down from 474,684 units during its launch week to 73,542 units this week (roughly 84% decrease), Splatoon Raiders is still commanding a pretty healthy lead.
This is followed by Rhythm Heaven Groove at 59,884, and we honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see both titles hit 1 million in the region over the coming weeks and months. Elsewhere, we’ve got a lot of new titles this week, but Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream has nestled in nicely with another 18,306, contributing to its running total of over 8 million units sold worldwide.

Hardware sales is a familiar picture once again. PS5 Digital Edition, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED Model have all seen slight spikes in sales compared to last week, but everything else is down.
