Yo-kai Sangokushi sold through 64% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 18 Comments
Yo-kai Sangokushi moved 270,000 copies during its launch weekend in Japan (April 2 and April 3). Media Create now reports that the game sold through 63.87 percent of its initial shipment.
Even though it’s a spin-off, this title’s sales fall well short in comparison to the series’ last release, Yo-kai Watch Busters. That one sold nearly 700,000 units in July 2015. However, when compared to Pokemon Conquest which was another collaboration game from the past (first week sales of 172,000 units, sell-through rate of 58.43 percent), Yo-kai Sangokushi sold much better in both numbers and sell-through rate. Given that, one could say that it’s off to a good start.
