[...]

For the sake of Media Create's latest Top 50 games being sold, the Must Songs titles' sales are grouped together as a standalone title, managing to being ranked higher on launch than Taiko V Version (which debut at the 13th place), while overall selling together roughly half the number of copies moved by V Version at launch (roughly 46.000 units). It's still quite impressive for such selective song lists!

On another note, Atsumete Tomodachi Daisakusen still hangs on to the Top 50, but being in the lesser half of the podium we don't have then numbers of copies sold for this week.
