Sounds like a pretty slow week, but a tremendous showing from Kirby. There are some pretty devoted Kirby fans out there, but it feels sometimes like there are more Kirby fans through Smash Bros. than his own games.

Far Cry 5 is ranked in the #2 spot in Japan? That's...surprising.

Lookng at this list, it has also narrowly been selling better than Super Robot Wars X so far, which was released on the same day.

I'm not trying to sound like a jerk or anything, but it surprises me they'd be interested in a game like Far Cry 5 (or even series like Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty for that matter). Those types of things don't look like they'd click with the Japanese gaming audience.
