Japan: Nintendo Switch Sells 50K And Nintendo 3DS Sells 26K

It’s Wednesday so that means it is time to find out which video game software releases and hardware were the best-sellers this week. It has been a busy week for software releases but hardware sales have remained a little stagnant, presumably because the Nintendo Switch is still seeing stock issues as usual. Here’s the best-sellers this week in Japan:
