Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Youkai Watch has been an unbelievable success for Level-5. The game has continued to sell week after week, and has now shipped over one million copies in Japan.
One could say that Youkai Watch got off to a slow start. However, once the game’s anime debuted in Japan, sales saw a major boost. Youkai Watch’s shipments came in at 500,000 units in mid-February, but have doubled since.

@Emi1yRogers Wii was 28k, WiiU just over 70k,PSP around 5k, PSV little over 10k, 3DS 159k. No Nintendo press release that I can find.

Nintendo hasn’t shared any sort of official information about the Wii U’s performance in the US last month, but things were far from stellar. Sales of Nintendo’s newest console – combined with the Wii – are said to be under 100,000 units.
That information comes from NeoGAF’s “creamsugar”, who is known for providing accurate NPD leaks.
creamsugar also shared a statistic pertaining to Yoshi’s New Island as well. It sounds like the game’s software sales combined with the special 3DS XL system sold under 160,000 units.
