Disney Magical World 2 sold through 35% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
A few days ago, Media Create reported that Disney Magical World 2 sold around 74,000 units in its first week in Japan. The sales tracker didn’t provide any additional information about the game’s performance, though Dengeki does offer insight of its own.
Dengeki’s sales number is pretty close to Media Create at 78,500 units (with hardware bundles included). The previous game, which launched in August 2013, sold 107,000 copies at launch. Dengeki also says that Disney Magical World 2 sold through 35 percent of its initial shipment.
While the game may seem to be off to a sluggish start, the previous entry was an evergreen title that eventually became a super hit, so there is hope that this one will see growth in the future as well. For reference, the first Disney Magical World’s sales have exceeded 500,000 units sold.

New Puzzle & Dragons 3DS game is “Puzzle & Dragons X”
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
It was just a few days ago that we heard about another Puzzle & Dragons game for 3DS via CoroCoro. Thanks to a newly-emerged scan, the title is confirmed to be “Puzzle & Dragons X”.
The scan, pictured above, admittedly doesn’t show a ton. It looks like we have a first look at the main character who is capable of turning into a knight. Aside from that, a pair of monsters are depicted.
Puzzle & Dragons X is heading to the 3DS in Japan next year. More information about the project should be shared soon.
