Yakuza 0 (2017, no spanish subs): 1250
Yakuza 6 (2018, no spanish subs): 1500
Judgment (2019, with spanish subs): 2550
So, thanks to the subs Judgment got higher sales in its debut, even if it is a new IP and the lack of marketing.

With the hardware data in Spain, I think we have enough data to make a graph for this year.

I was going to ask why Chart Track's week 27 numbers aren't online but it looks like the site is on its way out anyway.

This website will be taken offline on 31st July 2019.

Please visit UKIE for U.K Gaming Charts and IRMA for Irish Music Charts Information, or contact your Account Manager at GfK if you require any additional information.

The Shutdown of the website will not affect any other service provided by GfK Entertainment.

Sleeping dogs huh? Australia might be not so bad...
It had 90% discount during Steam Summer Sale, that is why it was number 7 in the EMEAA chart of the same week.
That said, I hope SE continues the IP with a new single player game. First game was really good, it deserves all these sales and more.

And I don't know why. For example, Bruno reported that Jugdment sold less copies than previous entry of Yakuza in UK.
At least in Spain we are seeing an increase in sales. Maybe someone expected the increase to be 5x or 10x?
They have promised, Vandal.net, a future article dedicated to the sales of Judgment. It could be a comment they got from some retailers.

True, and it's striking how that compared to the UK. In the UK, CTR did roughly 87k in its first two weeks, while SMM2 did less than 40k (Zhuge gave us that SMM2 after 2 weeks was below 60k, and the second week drop was only 47%). So, whereas in the UK SMM2 did less than half of what CTR did, in Germany during the same time period, it did more than CTR. Really shines a light on the difference between those two markets.
What did zhuge actually say?

I thought Mario maker would be at around 45k, with 30-35k week one + 15 ish k for week two

CTR >100k
SMM2 <60k

Packaged software.
Clearly 45k is below 60k, but I doubt he would say <60k if it actually were closer to 50k or less.

That's what I was thinking. If it were below 50k for the first two weeks, surely he would have said <50k. And if it's between 50-60k, wouldn't that make it more than half of crash's first two weeks?
True, but my post was aimed to align with the German top 10, which includes only June, and therefore not the third week of CTR and the second week of SMM2 (Zhuge's post was for the third week total of CTR and the two week total of SMM2). As such, I used the 40k or less versus the 87k for CTR's first two weeks which was deduced from first week sales of 57k and the percentage drop from the second week.

Ahhh I see, sorry for the misunderstanding. Thankyou!

You should make a thread out of it ;)
I have added everything to the Archive thread already :-)
Amazing, they have fixed the numbers for all those three games we were talking about: Zelda, Minecraft (Switch) and GTA V. Plus, finally we got LTD for Splatoon 2! It has sold really well in Spain as well.

Damn it, those are really sad sales for Dragon Quest Builders 2.

Bad on Switch and pathetically bad on PlayStation 4 since the first one debuted with almost 4.000 units.

It's a spin off to a relatively small JRPG brand in the UK, which received little marketing from what I've seen. Can't be too surprised with those physical numbers.

Stop buying GTA 5 people. You want GTA 6? Stop buying the former already. Let the fucker drop out of the chart. Its been 6 years ffs

Stopping buying GTAV isn't suddenly going to make GTAVI release more quickly. Especially considering they spent 8 years working on RDR2. At this point we're probably not seeing VI until a couple of years into next gen.

UK Charts: Super Mario Maker 2 scores third consecutive No.1

Super Mario Maker 2 continues to hold off Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled with its third consecutive No.1 in the UK phy…
Alright, the info in this article finally allows us to reconstruct SMM2 sales to a rather accurate degree.

We know that CTR first week was 57k. Its second week was -48%, so the sales were 29,640 for the second week. The third week saw a 45% drop, which means 16,302 units for the third week. The fourth week saw a 31% drop, which means 11,248 units sold.

The last number, 11,248 sold in week 4 for CTR, is 1,000 units lower than SMM2's third week. So, SMM2's third week is 12,248 approximately. This was after a 38% drop in sales, so the second week sales were 19,755 units sold. This, in turn, was a 47% drop in sales from the first week, so the first week of SMM2 was 37,274 units.

NOTE: Rounding errors accumulate due to rounded percentages used and rounded initial numbers. My calculations were made with unrounded intermediate answers, but I cannot do anything to mitigate the other rounding errors. As such, an error of up to several thousand could accumulate, though more than 2k error seems unlikely.

So, this gives the following sales for CTR:
Week 1: 57,000
Week 2: 29,640
Week 3: 16,302
Week 4: 11,248
Total: 114,190

... and the following total sales for SMM2:
Week 1: 37,274
Week 2: 19,755
Week 3: 12,248
Total: 69,277

Yeah that's suprisingly very very low for DQB2.
It hasnt really been pushed but still, that's probably lower than most other markets - I hope.

Thinking around 10k copies for MUA3 next week and 15k for FETH the week after.

Massive numbers.

Do we know any numbers for MUA1 and MUA2? I don't really know how big this franchise is in the UK.

As for Fire Emblem: I could only find a comparison for Awakening. It did between 6.3k and 10.2k. FETH doing 15k or so should not be inconceivable imo.

Additional info bits from mcvuk.com:
Meanwhile, Dragon Quest Builders 2 debuted at No.5, with 67 per cent of the sales going to the Switch and only 33 per cent going to the PS4. Dragon Quest Builders debuted further down the charts back in 2016, at No.13, but sold 22 per cent more copies than its sequel at launch.
The rest of the Top Ten remained relatively unchanged, though it's worth noting that Mortal Kombat 11 continued to perform extremely well, gaining three spots to No.7 following a 38 per cent increase in sales week-on-week. Warner Bros' title already had an excellent performance the week before, climbing 14 places to No.10.

Its pretty high up the UK eShop chart so hopefully a lot of people are using the voucher to buy DQB2

Why do DQ games have to sell so low in the West despite being so consistently fantastic? Goddamnit.

I actually know the possible reasons, just venting.

Is it possible to view historical UK chart data on UKIE without an account? Rather disappointing if that's not the case, since chart-track.co.uk didn't require one to view the years of comprehensive data it had.

That aside, ouch at Team Sonic Racing last week. Freefalled out of the top 40 entirely despite being at #24 last week. Maybe it will tunnel back into the bottom of the list next week, but I wouldn't be surprised if the UK market completely dropped it for Crash by this point.
