Software sales in Japan saw another dip during Christmas

During Christmas week, 1,517,000 games were sold in Japan. Media Create says that number is 79.45 percent compared to sales during Christmas week in 2013. Sales are also down compared to 2012 (1,701,000 units) and 2011 (1,621,000 units).

Gaming sales during the year-end season weren’t entirely underwhelming. All three versions of Youkai Watch 2 were top performers having sold a combined total of 5.079 million units. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate has sold 2.34 million copies and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS has sold 2 million.
