In an official report, Media Create shares more information about sales on the Japanese market for the week of August 17.

Super Robot Wars BX was the big seller having moved 98,000 units. According to Media Create, that amounted to a 85.42 percent sell-through rate. It couldn’t beat out the first week sales of the previous entry in the series, Super Robot Wars UX, which sold 115,000 units in March 2013 (and a 70.85 sell-through rate). The difference with BX’s sales could have been caused due to a shortage in stock.

Overall, 447,000 pieces of software were sold between August 17 and August 23. That is 75.64 percent when compared to the previous week. Now that the holiday period of Obon is over, total sales decreased by more than 250,000 units and new titles couldn’t fill the gap. Media Create mentions that the decline was especially remarkable for games on Nintendo systems, like Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer (sold 66,000 units, which is 47 percent when compared to the last week sales). Total software sales were also below 500,000 units for the first time in seven weeks.

More Dragon Quest VIII videos are emerging from Japan now that the game has launched in the region. We have one below that compares the loading times up against the PlayStation 2 version. It seems as though the 3DS takes a bit more time to load things, but it doesn’t seem to be a massive bump up in time.
