Splatoon 3

This week’s UK software sales are in, with Splatoon 3 topping the chart in its first week.

This marks the first game in the series to hit that mark. Splatoon and Splatoon 2 both debuted at #2. Launch sales for Splatoon 3 actually saw a 9 percent dip compared to the previous title, but keep in mind that digital sales are not factored in here. Splatoon 3 is the 21st best week one on Switch when it comes to games sold (as opposed to revenue), just behind Splatoon 2.

Here’s the latest UK sales chart:

Splatoon 3 sales

Splatoon 3 domestic sales have surpassed 3.45 million units in its first three days on the market, Nintendo has announced. That’s the highest domestic sales level for any Switch game within that timeframe.

Nintendo’s announcement seems to be based on Japanese sales only, so Splatoon 3’s total should be higher than this amount worldwide.

Today’s news is based on Nintendo’s own internal numbers. It includes both packaged and downloadable versions.

Here’s a bit of an interesting tidbit: Switch is the most profitable ‘format’ for all of entertainment in the UK. That’s despite a 12.5 percent dip year-over-year.

Switch beats out DVDs, Blu-ray, and CDs, and it’s even just ahead of vinyl. The console’s boxed sales hit £88.7 million since January 1.
