well cant do it like that WorldWide, cuz this is the first time ever for a WW release at the same time. All other games came out 6-8 months after japanese release. But i did make a thread that compared first year sales and even 2nd years. I'll try and find it for you

Found It. US+Europe had 8-9months in previous titles, XY had 2½months. Japan is fair comparison. Pls note BW is the fastest selling pokemon, but its the only one that dropped like a rock. Also DS userbase vs 3DS userbase, which puts XY in a pretty good position
☆ World Wide First Year ☆ *I have to adjust since japan released before everywhere else (DP/BW
11.89mil ~ D/P
12.98mil ~ B/W
9.94mil ~ X/Y (Undertracked by alot 11.61mil shipped+digital so sales should be between 10.8mil-11.2mil imo)
