Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure managed to sell just over 32,000 copies in its first week in Japan. Media Create now reports that the game sold through just 29.31 percent of its initial shipment.

Dokodon! Mystery Adventure is off to a slower start compared to the previous Taiko Drum Master games on 3DS. Little Dragon and the Mysterious Orb, which came out in July 2012, sold 65,000 units in its first week. 2014’s Don and Katsu’s Space-Time Great Adventure then sold 53,000 copies. Both titles saw sell-through rates of about 45 percent.

Even though Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure isn’t selling as well as its predecessors, it still should be something that moves copies in the long-term. However, there’s no denying that it’s seeing a difficult start.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has confirmed that Breath of the Wild will focus purely on a single-player experience. However, that isn’t to say he isn’t interested in multiplayer – far from it actually.

Aonuma told IGN when it comes to multiplayer and Zelda:

“I would like to take what I learned from Breath of the Wild and see if we can somehow fuse those learning points into another multiplayer Zelda. For example, with Triforce Heroes, which followed a similar format of Four Swords, there was a multiplayer involved in that game. That’s definitely a possibility and we will continue to [experiment] throughout the Zelda franchise.”

When Zelda: Breath of the Wild was first teased in a January 2013 Nintendo Direct, Aonuma spoke about going against the conventions of Zelda. One of these points involved challenging the notion of playing by yourself. While it doesn’t seem like Breath of the Wild will be tackling this in the end, perhaps it’s something we can look forward to in the future.
