I dunno, man. All I'm seeing is that the 2nd generation of MH games outsold the 3rd generation of MH games by a lot. |
MH3 came out on Wii. A home console where MH series has largely failed comapred to the portable series.
Then MH3G came out on 3DS when the system has less than 3 million units sold. The game has now sold almost 2 million units. That's one hell of a ratio and would impossible for it to sell more than the install base of the hardware itself.
Combined, MH3/G/U has sold 4.5million units.
You also have yoru generations mixed. Gen 2 consisted of MH2 on PS2, MH Freedom 2 on PSP and MH Freedom Unite on PSP. Combined, they are about 5.2 million. Gen 3 consists of MHTri on Wii, MH Portable 3rd on PSP and PS3, and MH 3 Ultimate on Wii U and 3DS. Combined, they total about 9.1 million.
And for the record, Capcom lists Monster Hunter Freedom Unite at just 3.3 million, not 5.37 million.

Unite did over a million in its "The Best" release.

Either it didn't sell 1 million or Capcom combined the sales of the intial release and the reduced price re-release. Otherwise you'd see 2 entires in that list I posted which displays ALL Capcom titles to sell 1 million units or more.

I did some digging around.
Capcom said they planned on 4 million in shipments here.
The Best version must be combined because Famitsu/MC reported it did over 1.1 million. There are another cheaper re-release that sold a few 100k. Either Capcom's numbers are out of date, because Famitsu/MC had it over 3.4 million over 3 years ago...
