A look at how Pokemon GO has boosted 3DS games and hardware in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 4 Comments
We’ve often talked about how Pokemon GO has positively affected the sales of the core Pokemon games. The Wall Street Journal now provides a closer look by examining the situation in Japan.
The image above shows how Pokemon GO has boosted sales of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Red/Green/Blue/Yellow, and 3DS hardware as a whole since launch. It’s cooled off slightly as of late, but overall, it’s clear that GO made a notable impact.
Thanks to Zoner for the tip.
