In Europe, the first title in this series, Yo-Kai Watch, was released this year on April 29, with Nintendo of Europe managing distribution. This graph compares the sell-through in the European market with the earlier release in the Japanese market. It is easy to see that Europe is off to a strong start, outpacing the sales figures of the Japanese release. I am told that the YoKai Watch toys are selling well in Spain and France as well, so we anticipate further demand as we head into the holiday season.
Remember, that number has been achieved between May-October! it's the same with sales on NA as of may 2016, where the game had been released on holidays! http://nintendoeverything.com/level-5-on-yo-kai-watchs-na-sales-snack-world-update-future-plans-and-more/
400k+ 450K ( assumIng that YW has sold another 50k from May to october In NA ) equals to 850k, it should be at 900k including rest of the world, a relative success for that kind of game outside Japan!
It worths to note that from the 400k sales figure in Europe, thE 200k + coming from Spain/France alone ( 100k+ in Spain and 100k+ in France )! By Ryng tolu.
Compare the size of spanish and french market and you will fathom how huge are the numbers of YW for Spain.
YW has sold 2.33m globally, when adding Japan numbers!
As for vgc tracking, it has undertracked it by only 100k in Europe! Pretty good tracking, especially for a new franchise in the west!
However, tracking in NA isn't so good...
