cant read it well enough to gain anything from it.

And google translate is like:

2015 of Nippon Ichi Software How was?

"According to the company announcement, latest work was released flagship series in March " Disgaea 5 " is about 60000 present in the country,is about 112 000 present in the country total was shipped."

 

I think this means they shipped 112,000 units in japan (to shops), and sold about 60,000 of them (in march).

(ei. this isnt about total sales, its about physical copies sold in March, and nothing to do with worldwide sales)

 

Do we have any VGC that can read japanese? Help us? please.

Lol, it's definitely not 112k in Japan, it won't sell that ever.

Hiska translated, apparently it's 112k rest of the world, 60k Japan.

So Disgaea 5 is only at 172k physical? sales.

Jebus thats low (but much better than 112k total)....

they must be really good at manageing their budgets to make the quality they do, with so little.

172k physical & digital sales.

And yeah, but it's a pretty good result for a small company line NIS.

I don't understand why Disgaea 5 was such a hard sell, other then the fact that it released the same week as Bloodborne in Japan.

I'm not so sure the audience is there for that type of hardcore SRPG. Disgaea 3 launched on a crowded week and debuted over 100k FW iirc.
