Last week in Japan, things were slow in video game hardware and software sales without any new and exciting releases, but that didn’t stop Super Smash Bros. Ultimate from topping Famitsu’s weekly sales chart.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate recently reached the 3 million milestone in Japanese sales and it doesn’t look like it is slowing down as it charted #1 with 8,662 units sold in the week for a total of 3,094,161 units sold via retail in Japan. Minecraft for Switch followed at #2 with 7,451 units sold, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe at #3 with 7,193 units sold.
