What this is
Pokémon games in Nintendo’s million-seller list for the year to March 2026: 12.03 million copies sold overseas and 4.66 million in Japan, so Japan was 27.9%.
How it’s built
- Added the overseas and Japan columns of Nintendo’s million-seller table for Legends: Z-A (both editions), Pokopia and Scarlet/Violet.
- Divided Japan by the total: 4.66 out of 16.69 million.
What we assumed
- Pokopia’s Japanese sales are missing.The Pokémon Company sells it in Japan, so Nintendo shows no figure; Japan’s true share is somewhat higher.
- Only titles that sold 1 million or more that year are included.That is all Nintendo’s table lists.
Sanity check
Adding Z-A’s Japan and overseas parts gives 12.80 million against Nintendo’s 12.79 million total; the 10,000 gap is Nintendo’s own rounding.
