Switch Sales back to normal in Japan

The seasonal madness is officially over in Japan with Switch sales sliding right back into their nothing-to-see-here groove of of 52K sales per week. Even on a down week, it is running neck-and-neck with PS4 and PS4 Pro sales that got a big kick from the arrival of Kingdom Hearts III and Resident Evil 2, selling 860K units between them.

The trouble for developers and publishers now, is do they focus on new titles for PS5 or try to ride the Switch wave with a mix of remasters and new titles? The clamour around Persona 5 R for Switch continues to drive interest and other developers must be looking at what they can port or update. But will Switch get new Resi titles (remasters aside) and KH games? Seems unlikely, for now.

More immediately, we get a useful comparison as Atelier Nelke arrives this week in Japan, across PS4, Switch and Vita launches this week.
