Splatoon is the most successful new console IP in Japan since the Wii series
Posted on May 14, 2016 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U
Splatoon has sold very well in all regions, but its performance in Japan is particularly impressive. The game is actually the most-successful IP console launch since the Wii series of games (Wii Sports, etc.).
Splatoon is sitting at around 1,357,000 copies sold in Japan. Wii U itself has moved around 3,165,000 units. By the time Wii U is phased out, the tie-in ratio could end up at 50 percent.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
