Monster Hunter World is continuing its cavalcade towards two million sold in Japan at retail pretty much unperturbed, but its effect on PS4 sales seem to have run out. On the other hand, the Switch ends its first year on the local shelves with a first place among hardware.
Speaking of Switch, Dragon Quest Builders had a decent debut for the port of a relatively old game but didn't have enough oomph to push beyond Capcom's 100-pound rathalos.
It'll be interesting to see if this is finally Monster Hunter World's last week at the top. This week we get the release of Hokuto Ga Gotoku by Sega, and that's the most likely candidate to dethrone the king thanks to the combined popularity of the Yakuza series and the Fist of the North Star IP. We'll see if that'll materialize next Wednesday.
