Wow! Sales of Nintendo Switch really exploded for the week between November 2 to November 8 selling 119,109 units in the span of a week. Number of units sold climbed 44.02% week-on-week, the highest among the rest. New 2DS LL saw sales dropped the most with 62.73% down from the week before. It ended the week with 536 units sold.
It is thanks to the amazing people over at Famitsu that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to their site here and show them lots of love! The data you find below is accessible via Famitsu’s post here.

Previous week’s Pikmin 3 experienced a sharp plunge in sales for the second week as it sold 67,925 copies, 60.36% lower than the week before. The combined sales it made for the first two weeks are 239,274 copies retaining the top spot. Ring Fit Adventure and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are both up for the week as they settled for spots 2 and 3 respectively. At number 4 is Pokémon Sword and Shield + Expansion Pass, which I am surprised that Famitsu did not combine them with the sales of the title minus the Expansion Pass. Most likely to avoid confusion. The chart has one new title making the list for the week, Shadowverse Champions Battle is at number 5 at 13,871 copies.
