The hardware chart also shows a decrease in sales across the board, which is expected compared to the golden week.
- Switch – 31,720
- PS4 – 12,534
- PS4 Pro – 5,154
- New 2DS XL – 3,639
- New 3DS XL – 2,331

- 2DS – 384
- Xbox One – 126
- Xbox One X – 42
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze remains at the top, passing 100,000 units sold, which is really good for a remaster. Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball also keeps selling pretty well into its third week, getting close to 200,000 units sold across PS4 and PS Vita.
Pretty much nothing else changed compared to last week, considering that this one was an expected slow period for sales. Nintendo Labo was overtaken by Splatoon 2 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which have been keeping close to the top of the chart basically forever, being able to count on a wider target user base.
