Japanese Charts: Mega Man Had a Strong Start, But Lost to the Leader

In Japan, since the release of the console, the weeks have been marked by the Nintendo Switch 2. Interest in the device remains steadily high, and players are following not only the platform but also game sales.

This is confirmed by the latest sales chart in Japan from Famitsu for the week. It shows which projects are currently in the spotlight.

Game sales in Japan (23.03–29.03):

  1. [NS2] Pokemon Pokopia — 48 772 (Total: 821 687)
  2. [NS] Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection — 18 238
  3. [NS2] Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park — 10 158

There are also new releases in the chart. Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection started in second place – a solid result, but far from the leader. The start in the top shows that the series still attracts attention and, under suitable conditions, can still compete for players.
