Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 was the top seller in Japan this past week. Between March 24 and March 27, the game sold 368,665 copies. As usual, Media Create has now followed up with some additional information.
Based on Media Create’s data, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 sold through 59.16 percent of its initial shipment. The previous game in the series, Dragon Quest Monsters 2’s 3DS remake, sold 444,000 units with a 78.65 percent sell-through. Media Create points out that Joker 3 lacked in both numbers and sellthrough rate, making it look like a sluggish turnout in comparison.
