Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice debuted in Japan last week. During its first few days on the market, the game sold nearly 200,000 copies. Media Create now has more information about its performance.

Sales for Spirit of Justice fell about 20 percent when stacked up to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies’ first week. In July 2013, that game sold 250,000 units.

Media Create does note that pre-orders were roughly the same for the two titles. Spirit of Justice had 129,000 pre-orders while Dual Destinies’ reservations were at 121,000.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice started out by focusing on core fans of the series who pre-ordered the game, and the floating buyers are considered to be reduced. Considering proactive measures from multimedia expansion have been pushed such as a TV anime currently airing, Media Create says that the results can be hardly said to be sufficient.

Another small note by the way: the Lime x Black and Pink x White New 3DS XL colors sold 10,000 units. It contributed to the gaming market and helped raise overall hardware numbers a bit.

Capcom still has more collaboration DLC to announce for Monster Hunter Generations. And as stated by producer Ryozo Tsujimoto, we’ll be hearing about what’s in store “in the coming months”.

Capcom previously revealed Fire Emblem crossover equipment for Monster Hunter Generations in the west. There’s also DLC based on Okami and Ghosts ‘n Goblins.

The Great Ace Attorney debuted in Japan last year. Sadly, there hasn’t been any news about it heading west. That’s not due to a lack of interest from Capcom though.

Speaking with GameSpot, Ace Attorney series producer Motohide Eshiro mentioned that Capcom wants to localize The Great Ace Attorney. However, “a number of circumstances” are preventing that from happening at the moment.

Eshiro said:

“Unfortunately there’s a number of circumstances… We absolutely do want to bring it to the West, but unfortunately due to these circumstances right now… I’m really really sorry! Nowadays on the Internet lots of fans are directly asking us, ‘Where’s Daigyakuten Saiban?’ On livestreams, even in the Japanese ones, people from the West will write in and ask where it is. Every time we say, we’re sorry! Certain circumstances are kind of getting in the way.”
