Switch still rolling along

This past week saw the release of Blue Reflection, Musou Stars, Mario Sports Superstars,and a couple of visual novels. Next to Monster Hunter XX, Musou Starssold the most with over 58,000 copies. Persona-like Blue Reflectioncame in third with an encouraging 48,000 push.

On the hardware end, the Nintendo Switch calmed a bit from its surge last week. The rest is rather unchanged, though the PlayStation 3 had a near-doubling fling. And little ole Xbox One is still trying.
