Yes it is a 'flop' when compared to its portable cousins.

It's also a subscription based online RPG.  It's outsold every subscription based game in Japan ever released, including (all versions combined of) FFXI and PSO.

 

 

actually PC version sells quite well

The best selling PC game ever in japan was Ys VI, which sold ~500k.  Or half what MH3 on Wii sold.

btw, since Ys VII sold only 100k, I guess it's an even bigger flop.


this is much different the PSO and FF11. 1st you CANNOT play those games offline so you needed a online service to play them... which is NOT the case with monster hunter. you can play the game offline just you need to play to play online if im not mistaken. So everyone can buy it which kills your arguement.

2nd  if you want to talk about flops on consoles didnt ff13 on half the userbase in japan sell better then any Wii 3rd party game? Using your Ys logic that would mean every 3rd party game was a fail and thats clearly not the case as lots of games sold well... (just not halo, COD well)
