Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Nintendo Switch sold 24,045 units in its first week of sales. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 debuted on PS4 less than a year ago, last November, with 66,035 units sold.
Everybody’s Golf saw a strong start last week and it charted at #4 in its second week with 22,488 units sold on PS4.
Lastly KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on this Wonderful World! – Judgment to this Greedy Game! made its debut charting at #10 and #11 with 7,044 units sold for PS4 and a 7,000 for PS Vita.
On the hardware front, there was a big spike in PlayStation 4 Pro sales going from 4,965 the week prior to 10,999 this past week. This likely comes from the release of the Glacier White PS4 Pro model in Japan on September 6.
