Monster Strike sold through 46% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Monster Strike sold 438,000 copies in its first week in Japan. While the game definitely sold quite a bit, it doesn’t tell the full picture. Media Create shares more about how the game performed in its latest report.
Media Create notes that Monster Strike sold through 46.26 percent of its initial shipment. Given the game’s market scale, the sales tracker feels that this is a rather concerning result. Simple calculations of Monster Strike stock in the city (perhaps Tokyo) are estimated at around 500,000 units, so it is needed to observe the sales movement at the upcoming New Year’s holiday.
Aside from Monster Strike, we have one more tidbit about the latest Japanese sales. During the week of December 14, Wii U sold 165.52 percent compared to last week. New 3DS (including XL) was at 128.25 percent week-over-week.
