With the latest Japanese charts, Sony is once again dominating the hardware sales. This time, though, two PS5 games are also in the top ten (via Gematsu<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The big story for Nintendo is that Nintendo Switch Sports<\/a> has surpassed 1 million physical sales in the week of 6th to 12th February. The family sports title sold an additional 7,127 copies to push it over the landmark figure.<\/p>\n

In other news, after reclaiming the top spot last week, Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet & Violet<\/a> has been pushed down to second place. Sales, however, are still decent, with the gen 9 Pok\u00e9mon games selling 29,019 in what is otherwise a quiet week for software sales. Taking the top spot this week is the PS5 version of Hogwarts Legacy<\/a>, which has shifted an impressive 67,196 units. Gran Turismo 7<\/a> is the other PS5 game cracking the top ten, reaching ninth with 2,065 units sold.<\/p>\n

    In hardware, something that’s becoming a very familiar story in 2023 is the success of the PS5. Once again, combined sales for Sony’s console (both disc-based and digital) have eclipsed Nintendo’s own hardware sales. The two PS5 models have sold 93,574 units, while the three Switch units have sold a combined total of 55,025 units. The Lite has retaken the lead over the Xbox Series X, however, following last week’s sales.<\/p>\n
