Zero PS5 games amongst Japan's 100 best-selling games of 2020

Sony kind of left Japan apart on the PlayStation global launch, delivering just a few thousand units to local stores, and it seem that gamers were not very happy with the release window line-up.

Famitsu released the list of best-selling retails games of 2020 in the region and there are zero PS5 games on it. Neither the next-gen version of Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Demon's Souls or Sackboy: A Big Adventure, no PlayStation 5 title sold more that 36,507 copies before December 27.

The Japanese games market was dominated by Nintendo in hardware and software. Animal Crossing: New Horizons was number one, as expected. It sold alone almost the same amount of copies that the next six titles in the Top 10 combined. The biggest surprise was Momotaro Dentetsu: Showa, Heisei, Reiwa mo Teiban! as Konami's party game led the third party ranking ahead of Square Enix's Final Fantasy VII Remake.

PlayStation 4 didn't do that bad, indeed. It has 37 titles on the Top 100, with Ghost of Tsushima on position 14 as Sony's biggest release of the year. The Last of Us Part II didn't click with the audience, however, and it clocked in at 25. Take a look at the complete list below:
