For the first time since 1988, the Japanese weekly chart is made up entirely of games for one console: Nintendo Switch.

Games for Nintendo Switch ranked in the fresh Japanese sales chart all 30 items out of 30… There were no releases for systems from other manufacturers in the rating. The last time this happened was in 1988, when the Japanese bestseller list consisted entirely of games for an eight-bit console. Famicom (NES). Statistics are based on data from the publication Famitsu
