Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX sold about 140,000 copies in its first week in Japan. According to Dengeki, it saw an initial sell-through rate of 70 percent.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX is performing similarly to previous entries in the franchise. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky on DS moved 141,000 units in its first week before going on to sell 421,000 units in total. There’s also Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity for 3DS, which sold 151,000 units upon release and 330,000 copies in total.
Dengeki points out that the original versions of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX as well as Explorers of Time/Explorers of Darkness ended up selling over one million units, so we’ll have to see if this new Switch remake can match those same heights.

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers sold through 75% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers came out in Japan last week where it sold about 160,000 copies. Media Create has the Switch version at 46,415 units and another 115,995 for the PS4 version. According to Dengeki, the game sold through 75 percent of its initial shipment.
Persona 5 Scramble didn’t sell as many copies as Persona 5 Royal – a redone version of Atlus’ RPG – which initially moved 210,000 units. However, given the sell-through rate, it’s off to a strong start.
We’ll also mention that Katana Kami: Way of the Samurai Story sold through 75 percent of its initial shipment as well. Between Switch and PS4, it moved almost 20,000 copies – though the Switch version did a bit worse at 7,392 units.
