Japan: Luigi’s Mansion For Nintendo 3DS Takes The Number One Spot

The latest sales charts are now in for Japan courtesy of the team at sales tracking firm Media Create. It is nice to see a Nintendo 3DS title at number one and that game is the entertaining Luigi’s Mansion which has dethroned Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Interestingly it is still the Nintendo Switch which is the best-selling hardware comfortably beating Sony’s PlayStation 4 console. Here are the best-sellers in Japan this week.
