During the week of June 16, Pokemon Art Academy launched in Japan. While it only moved 31,080 copies, the game sold through 70.11 percent of its initial shipment.

Pokemon Art Academy actually could have sold even more if not for a recent Nintendo promotion. The title was made free (starting this month and lasting through the end of July) as part of Nintendo’s Recommended Monthly Software Campaign. You also have to consider that overall sales slowed during the week due to it being the week before payday.

Japan saw its slowest week in 2014 thus far in terms of game sales. According to Media Create, total software sales dipped below 380,000 units. Previously, the third week of May was Japan’s slowest.

There weren’t many games that sold particular well last week. Pro Evolution Soccer 2014: Challenge of the Blue Samurai experienced a slight uptick – likely due to the FIFA World Cup – but that’s about it.
