Is a miracle seeing PS5 games on top 10.

Sad that it's considered a miracle for Black Myth Wukong to edge out Cardfight!! Vanguard Dear Days 2, whatever the hell that is.

Oh. Maybe that's the long-awaited sequel to Cardfight!! Vanguard Dear Days?

Well they need to drastically do something to increase the ps5 userbase as once again a weekly total of barely over 10k with all skus combined is pretty poor. Gta6 will mostly save it in the West but monster hunter needs to be able to do the same in japan as now all eyes are on the upcoming switch 2 Sony have their work cut out to try and lure potential switch 2 buyers into grabbing a ps5 instead.

Switch still up year over year, even after the reveal of its successor, absolute beast of a system.

Decent opening for Wukong, considering its on a console Japan doesn't care for.

It's crazy, and it will probably get a big boost when the new Pokemon games come out later this year.

As time goes on, I'm starting to agree with the idea that the Switch 2's biggest competitor will be the original Switch itself. Obviously game enthusiasts like us will go nuts and buy it right away, but depending on how compatible cross gen software is, a lot of the general public might just stick with Switch for the next couple years.
