atheist123 583 Posted May 26, 2015 Witcher 3 topped major Japanese retailer Tsutaya's sales charts for last week, beating such heavy weights as FFX Remastered and Bravely Second. While not the most official statistics, it's promising seeing Witcher 3 sell so well. It's a great game and everyone should play it, regardless of country of origin http://www.dualshockers.com/2015/05/25/ps4-version-of-the-witcher-3-wild-hunt-dominates-major-japanese-retailers-sales-chart/ 1 JohnnyMomb reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted May 26, 2015 This means nothing. Japanese gaming is sadly at its lowest point ever. It probably sold 30,000 copies. And the titles you noted have been out for awhile. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the state of the Japanese game market is sad. Good to see they are supporting foreign developers, though, even if it isn't blockbuster sales.

Can't we all just acknowledge Witcher 3 did well without nitpicking? lolFFX is like GTA over in the West: even though it has been re-released multiple times, it still pulls great sales figures.

Nope. 30,000 copies is nothing to get excited about for a game like this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interestingly it sold over double those figures. 67,000+ copies is not all that bad for a non-Japanese game. Especially given that the PS4 isn't exactly doing glorious sales over there. 1 atheist123 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
