Gunman Clive 2 dev says the game’s sales have “been a bit disappointing” compared to the first title
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 8 Comments
Gunman Clive 2’s sales have “been a bit disappointing” when compared to the series’ first entry, creator Bertil Hörberg has said.
Writing about Gunman Clive 2’s performance on Twitter, Hörberg stated:
For those asking, GC2 sales has been a bit disappointing compared to GC1, but I'll survive
— Bertil Hörberg (@BertilHrberg) April 13, 2015
Hörberg had a brief exchange with Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham, and acknowledged that his expectations may have been a bit too high while also noting that not enough was done to promote Gunman Clive 2.
@JoolsWatsham Probably mostly my expectations being too high after getting lucky with GC1 and being bad at promoting the game
— Bertil Hörberg (@BertilHrberg) April 13, 2015
Sales of the first Gunman Clive surpassed 400,000 units in February. It did particularly well on the 3DS.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D sold through 59% of its initial shipment in Japan
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 6 Comments
Media Create revealed earlier this week that Xenoblade Chronicles 3D had moved 57,000 copies in its first week in Japan. A follow-up report from the sales tracker confirms that it sold through 58.66 percent of its initial shipment.
How does that stack up to the original Wii version? On Nintendo’s old console, Xenoblade Chronicles sold 83,000 copies with a sell-through rate of 76.29 percent.
Something to remember is that the Wii had a much bigger install base when Xenoblade Chronicles launched. All things considered, the New 3DS version did quite well!
