That is fine, but not great even great including digital. So the japanese base is more or less maintained. Lifetime sales will be strongly dependent on the legs, but that should be fine, it is MonHun after all.

FW and LT in Japan for previous titles:

MH Freedom Unite (PSP): 0.86M (4.13M LT)

MF Freedom 3 (PSP): 1.97M  (4.87M)

MH4 (3DS): 1.78M (3.44M)

MHX (3DS): 1.49M (2.82M)

MH4G (3DS): 1.50M (2.63M)

So this has already beat all of them in its first three days then?

First week is first week, pretty much every game starts late in the week. So the numbers are comparable. This are VGC-numbers (that reflect Media Create and Famitsu), so only physical. I don't think though the previous entries had that massive digital ratio. Probably Freedom 3 on PSP has reached 2M with digital, and there is a slight chance MH4 on 3DS did the same (but unikely, that would've needed 200K digital sales).
