Famitsu’s Japanese chart figures are now in for 27th July – 2nd August, revealing that Animal Crossing: New Horizons<\/strong><\/a> has been knocked down to second place.<\/p>\n

Nintendo’s cuddly life sim is still selling decent numbers – even if its weekly total has fallen since last time around – but PS4’s Mobile Suit Gundam<\/strong> is to blame for the fall in position. Bandai Namco’s action title sold an estimated 123,147 physical copies to claim first place.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Switch newcomer Fairy Tail<\/strong><\/a> debuted in seventh place, ahead of the PS4 version which has landed in ninth. Nintendo Switch games make up seven of the top ten this week.<\/p>\n
