3DS versions of MH have barely reached half of what the PSP games sold. 3million versus 6million. |
Wow, some people are really desperate trying to talk the success of MH4 down. Because they don't accept, what they don't want to.
First of all: no MH-game sold 6 million. Monster Hunter Freedom Unite sold 5.39 million, Monster Hunter Freedom 3 sold 4.87 million.
Second: Monster Hunter Freedom Unite sales are worldwide. In Japan it has only 4.13M. MHF3 has all it's 4.87M sales in Japan, as MH 4 has it's 3.03M. So the comparison is already a lot down since the starting doubled number you claimed.
Third: Look at the 10 week sales. MH4 has 3,005,880; MHFU has 2,247,833; MHF3 has 4,081,791. So MH4 is ahead of MHFU (the best-selling MH) in the same timeframe and behind MHF3. All other Monster Hunter titles fall far behind.
So MH4 clearly sell among the best-selling titles in the franchise.
