Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash sold fairly well in Japan. Media Create has first week sales at 55,331 units while Dengeki’s figure is slightly higher at 58,000. In any case, that’s probably more than most people were anticipating.

According to Dengeki, Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash sold through about 80 percent of its initial shipment. The title sold favorably compared to the last console release in the series, New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis. That one sold 57,000 copies in its first week, and went on to move 247,000 units in total.
