Nintendo has just revealed the best selling games on the Switch eShop. These are games that were only released on the eShop — the list excludes titles such as Super Mario Odyssey and Splatoon 2, which would of course rank high on the list.
There’s another caveat: the list comes from Nintendo Japan, who only included games that were released on the Japanese Switch eShop. Which is most of the games we have here in the West, but a few are missing, such as Golf Story, which topped the charts here in the US at one point.
Here are the top 20 best selling games on the Switch eShop in 2017:
1. Stardew Valley
