Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth to receive a Famitsu DX Pack with lots of goodies
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
There’s a lot going on with Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth right now. Today, Atlus announced that a special 3DS XL system is coming to tie-in with the game’s release, and there will also be a unique soundtrack available as a first-print bonus. But that’s not all – a Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth Famitsu DX Pack is also on the way.
The Famitsu DX Pack will come with a copy of Persona Q, a special B5 size tapestry drawn by the Persona Q anime staff, an A3 size clear poster, five visual clear files, a Persona Q mug teased as the “motif style of the Velvet Room,” and a graphig version of Rei. Pricing is set at 10,590 yen.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold through 35% of initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 17 Comments
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold 36,000 units (give or take) in its first week on the Japanese market. This we know. Media Create, however, has shared a few extra bits about the game’s sales.
Perhaps most significant, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze only sold through 35.28 percent of its initial shipment. Media Create mentions that the series is seeing a downward trend in sales. As previously mentioned, Donkey Kong Country Returns on Wii sold 163,000 units in its first week while the 3DS port sold another 104,000 units.
Aside from the Wii U’s lower installed base, why are gamers seemingly less interested? Media Create speculates that people aren’t being enticed by the new layers within Tropical Freeze. The sales tracker also cautions people to consider the heavy snow last weekend, especially in places like Tohoku and Kanto areas.
And of course, we can’t forget about what kind of title Donkey Kong is. Media Create points out that more sales will come over a longer period of time due to its evergreen nature.
Persona Q 3DS XL planned for Japan, soundtrack CD included as first print bonus
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments

Atlus has confirmed plans to release a special 3DS XL system for Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. However, we don’t know much about the limited edition – including what it looks like.
We do have one additional tidbit about Persona Q though. First print copies, which are priced at 6,980 (same goes for the standard release), will include a Persona Q: Sound of the Labyrinth soundtrack CD (pictured above).
