MH3U sold 45k first week
|
why does that matter? It's now at 350k, meaning the Monster Hunter fanbase on 3DS has grown alot in the last 2 years, and again that was a 3 year old port that was also multiplat. A true exclusive, brand new entry with a sizeable fanbase will surely do much better.
|
If MH4U will sell 10 more then MH3Ui can't imagine how will be the growth life time.
Vgchartz pre-order chart was proved many time that they are far from reality especially rpg games that's why it's dificult to me to believe them
|
U are getting too hung up on MH3U first week sales. The Monster Hunter fanbase was not yet on 3DS when MH3U launched, it had low first week sales and proceeded to have legs.
Now that the fanbase of Monster Hunter has grown on 3DS, it's more likely this entry will have a much bigger first week with much smaller legs.
First week sales of MH3U were only like 15% of current totals, MH4U first week sales will account for a much larger percentage of lifetime numbers due to have a sizeable fanbase on the device now.
|
The problem is that MH4U is doing a lot more then any other MH game in USA
|
So? Go look in the game database here on this site, the series has gotten bigger with each new installment in USA, why is it so odd that the trend is continuing?
These are North American numbers so USA will be a bit lower
Monster Hunter--110k
Monster Hunter Freedom-240k
Monster Hunter Freedom 2-360k
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite--450k
Monster Hunter Tri-650k
Monster Hunter 3 Ulitmate-600k (3 year old port and still growing)
Even if this trend stops, it's not unlikely for MH4U to sell 600k+ in USA in which case a 300k opening isn't too out of the ordinary.
|
If we trust vgchartz numbers MH4U will sell in first week more then Monster Hunter,Monster Hunter Freedom,Monster Hunter Freedom 2 and maybe Monster Hunter Freedom Unite life time
|
I must ask u again, what is ur point? U keep bringing up things that don't really apply.
A 300k is also about half of what the last mainline (non-port) installment has sold lifetime. A 300k opening with a 600-700k lifetime is not unrealistic at all.

I just don't believe MH will have that growth ,i'm done anyway the game will release in 2 weeks
