This week's Japanese gaming charts from Famitsu bring exciting news as the much-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 officially hits store shelves, accompanied by a stellar lineup of launch titles. Leading the charge is Mario Kart World, which zoomed to the top of the sales charts with an impressive 782,566 physical copies sold. On the hardware side, the Nintendo Switch 2 clinched the number one spot with a remarkable 947,931 units sold, though it’s worth noting that this figure doesn’t account for sales from the My Nintendo Store, hinting at a total exceeding one million units across Japan.
