Youkai Watch 2 has been a massive success in Japan having sold nearly three million units. The game’s third version, Shinuchi, is also expected to sell a ton.

Media Create mentions in its latest report that pre-orders of Shinuchi reached 231,000 copies in just two weeks. Reservations for the game are in line with Youkai Watch 2’s previous versions. That’s quite impressive, especially given how pre-orders for Shinuchi began later than the first two Youkai Watch 2 titles.
