That's a lot of very specific wickets you have to line up there to get that "best selling" title.

Must be a very slow news day

I don't know that I'd trust Amazon's "Best Sellers" list. Its probably the "best selling" game because it's on sale at some point and people decided to buy it for the cheaper price vs using other avenues to buy games that are actually "best sellers" because they're actually good. Or they have/had some Amazon gift cards to use up. Or some other reason it's a "best seller" on Amazon and most likely Amazon of Japan only. lol
