Pokemon seems low.

In Japan it went from like 1.8m for S/M to 1.2m for US/UM.

In the US it went from 1.5m+ for S/M to under 500k for US/UM.

These aren't the main releases a la Sun and Moon and XY, but side games.

 

Also.....they are just strange games. I've beaten the main story of USUM and am currently happy working to shiny breed for once.....but I will not pretend that they were not odd even by third version standards. 

 

For comparisons, Black and White's sales were twice that of Black 2 White 2's sales.

I know, im talking about how drastic the drop is in relation to Japan.

In Japan in did 2/3 of the original while in US it did under 1/3.
