Amazing first week for Monster Hunter, the Monster Hunter series is finally back home where it belongs!!!

Without a doubt I could see this game becoming the biggest home console game of this generation!!!

Where are all the Nintendo fanboys now that claimed that Monster Hunter couldn't sell on a Playstation home console? XD

Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

I am also curious about how well will PS4 hold on next week with DBFZ. MHW certainly will have a lasting effect.

Should have a decent next few weeks, Dynasty Warriors 9 is also releasing in 2 weeks.

False, it didn't.  The Famitsu yearly for 2017 lists the PS4 version (physical mind you) at 101k while the switch was 57k.

Nice sales for MH. Better than i expected. Congrats to Capcom, hope they are satisfied with the numbers.

Ubisoft also having good sales in Japan with M+R. Good for them.

They hsvehgone dolrmt over reseters anyway. Ever simve this game wws even rumoured tjry went into full on console war mode. Now the numbers are out they have nothing to say. BeautiBea silence.

So in attempting (and succeeding far beyond anyone's expectations) to capture the West, Capcom still has phenomenal first week sales in Japan. The move to more powerful consoles was just what MonHun needed to become a global sensation.

Wow MH. Congrats PS4 and Capcom. Did not see this coming. Easily PS4's biggest Japanese game.
