In addition to selling an insane amount of copies, Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry’s Wonderland 3D saw a high sell-through rate in its first week on the Japanese market.
We recently found out that Terry’s Wonderland 3D moved 522,000 units between May 28 and June 3. A follow-up report from Media Create reveals that 93.96% of Square Enix’s initial shipment was sold, leading to many sell-outs at retailers.
Level-5’s Guild 01 also made its debut last week, but it wasn’t nearly as successful as Dragon Quest Monsters. Media Create data indicates that only 15,000 copies were sold with a sell-through rate of 53.16%.
Guild 01’s disappointing sales could be partially attributed to a lack of consumer awareness. A Media Create survey suggests that only 0.7% of its participants were aware of the title. Because these people said they heard about Level-5’s 3DS game through magazines, core gamers likely contributed to most of its sales.
