Classifiche Giappone, settimana 41/2021: Metroid e Switch OLED conquistano il Sol Levante!

Hardware

Switch “OLED” fa il suo debutto e parte col botto: oltre 138mila unità vendute che, sommate alle 32mila di Switch standard ed alle 8.600+ della Lite, consentono alla console Nintendo di raggiungere l’incredibile cifra di 180mila unità vendute in una settimana.

PS5 si difende come può e ottiene risultati dignitosi: quasi 16mila unità vendute.

“Segni di vita” anche da Xbox Series: quasi 3.500 unità sommando le due varianti della console.

Interessante un dato: Series S/X combinate superano le 100mila unità dal lancio ad oggi, a meno di un anno dal lancio in Giappone. Per raggiungere lo stesso risultato, Xbox ONE ha impiegato ben 4 anni.

Software

Metroid Dread debutta primo e supera ogni aspettativa: con quasi 87mila copie vendute è di gran lunga il miglior debutto di un Metroid in territorio nipponico.

Segue Far Cry 6 in edizione PS4 e PS5 rispettivamente al secondo e terzo posto.
