Nintendo Switch Has Been The Best-Selling Console In Japan For 12 Months In A Row

Famitsu has provided a report showcasing the best-selling games and systems throughout February 2019 in Japan, with Switch unsurprisingly taking the top spot. This first place finish means that the Switch has now come out on top for the 12th consecutive month in the region.

Nintendo Switch sold 7.5 million units in 2 years (103 weeks) when Wii had sold 7 million units for the same period.

Still selling less than 3ds. Japan is a dead market (bad economy and stuff)

Dead market because the Switch outsell every other consoles? Dead market because at least 60,000 game consoles are sold every week? (Which, by the way is more than what my country can sell in a year).

Dead market? Didn't Monster Hunter World sell over 3 million units in Japan alone on the PS4? It's been out on the market 2 years in Japan. 3DS is working on it's 8th year.
