Japan charts: Switch 2 sales keep sliding but Tomodachi Life holds off the newcomers
AI summarized Read in LT

Switch 2 hardware sales in Japan have slipped again this week — the second rough week in a row following the recent price hike. Nintendo's software lineup is doing the heavy lifting, with Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream refusing to give up the top spot.

The life sim added over 50,000 copies this week, enough to keep both Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and eFootball Kick-Off! — two new Switch 2 releases — off the number one position. 007 First Light on PS5 dropped sharply after a silver-medal debut last week, landing at seventh place this time around. Japan-exclusive train sim A-Train 9 Evolution also cracked the charts in its debut week.

Figures come from Famitsu's weekly sales data.
