And here’s the hardware chart:

- PS4: 28,863
- New 3DS XL: 19,111

- New 3DS: 6,013
- 3DS: 2,679
- PS3: 1,600
- 3DS XL: 552
- Xbox One: 490
Gundam Breaker 3 definitely dominated the software chart, selling best on Vita, and propelling Sony’s portable to the top of the hardware chart, followed by the PS4, that still manages to narrowly beat the combined sales of the four 3DS models.
Interestingly, the Wii U recovered a bit, showing that the shortages that apparently affected its sales in the past month have been mitigated or solved. Super Mario Maker also reappears on the software chart after a week out of the top 20, while Splatoon keeps on trucking unperturbed.
Lastly, the Xbox One also got a bump, probably helped by its exclusive shoot ’em up Raiden V, that unfortunately didn’t manage to make the top 20 software chart.
