More insight into Monster Hunter Stories’ first week sales in Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 5 Comments
Monster Hunter Stories sold 141,000 copies in its first week, according to Media Create. Now the sales tracker has shared more on how it’s done thus far.
As a Monster Hunter spin-off game aimed at low-age audiences (think children), it far exceeded Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Airou Village DX, which was released in September 2015 and sold 59,000 copies with 57.48 percent sell-through rate. Based on Media Create’s findings with regard to pre-orders, promotions like the demo and the anime broadcast helped boost the number by about 20 to 30 percent. However, Monster Hunter Stories’ first week sell-through rate was 51.83 percent, which was less than Airou Village DX.
Store clerks have also said that adults are mainly showing more interest. This might be seen as a lacking start from a retailer perspective.
