@ blackstar, 1 sold about 750k, and 2 sold about 800k

 

lolwut?

in japan alone?

 

Yes. And Yakuza 2 was a massive bomb in the West. I think ~50k on the enormous PS2 userbase. Yakuza 3 really doesn't have a big chance of being localized.

Most PS3 games in Japan don't even sell 50K copies. Does that mean putting games out in Japan is complete waste of time? Also that 50K doesn't include Others numbers.

Yakuza 2 by the way was basically a direct port with subtitles. They clearly didn't put much effort or money into it and they waited 2 years to bring it over. So I think there's a possibility Yakuza 3 will make it to the US.
