Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers came out in Japan last week where it sold about 160,000 copies. Media Create has the Switch version at 46,415 units and another 115,995 for the PS4 version. According to Dengeki, the game sold through 75 percent of its initial shipment.
Persona 5 Scramble didn’t sell as many copies as Persona 5 Royal – a redone version of Atlus’ RPG – which initially moved 210,000 units. However, given the sell-through rate, it’s off to a strong start.
We’ll also mention that Katana Kami: Way of the Samurai Story sold through 75 percent of its initial shipment as well. Between Switch and PS4, it moved almost 20,000 copies – though the Switch version did a bit worse at 7,392 units.

PlatinumGames had previously mentioned to Famitsu that the studio was targeting pretty much every platform with Project G.G. While speaking with IGN, studio head Atsushi Inaba officially named Switch as one of those systems the company is pursuing for the new title. PlatinumGames ultimately hopes to release on all main platforms when the game launches.

Would you want to see something like Okami 2? Or how about Viewtiful Joe 3? That power lies entirely in Capcom’s hands of course, as the company owns those IPs. And for those that want to see those types of games become a reality, they’d have to make their interest known.
During a panel at PAX East 2020, Kamiya was asked about the possibility of making sequels such as Okami 2 or reviving cancelled projects like Scalebound. Kamiya’s response was short but clear, stating:
