According to the latest data from GSD, in the week ending October 19, "Pokémon Legends Z-A" successfully topped the combined sales list of physical and digital games in Europe, pushing "Battlefield 6", which had previously performed strongly, to second place.Although the sales volume of "Pokémon Legend Z-A" during the same period dropped by about 28% compared with its predecessor "Pokémon Legend Arceus", it became the first game since "Pokémon Let's Go!"This is the Pokémon title with the lowest first-week unit sales since "Pikachu/Eevee", but its market performance is still impressive.

It is worth noting that Nintendo officially confirmed that half of the first-week sales of this game came from the Switch 2 platform. This proportion fully reflects the driving force of the new hardware.Data analyst Chris Dring pointed out that this result has not yet fully reflected the performance of digital channels, and "contrary to PlayStation, Xbox and PC platforms, the physical retail sales of Nintendo games have traditionally been better than the eShop digital store."

Other trends in the list during the same period: "Little Nightmares 3" dropped to eighth place, with sales falling 72% month-on-month; "Mario Kart World" returned to the top ten in sales thanks to the Switch 2 bundle.
