So this is the best opening week of any Monster Hunter game in Japan?

  • MH Freedom Unite (PSP): 0.86M
  • MF Freedom 3 (PSP):         1.97M
  • MH4 (3DS):                          1.78M
  • MHX (3DS):                          1.49M
  • MH4G (3DS):                       1.50M

It appears around 38% of sales were digital. Was the physical copy of the game sold out in a lot of places in Japan as well? I've been hearing reports about that from other countries, but didn't know the situation in Japan.

But this is all thanks to the massively superior install base of PS4's in Japan that dwarfs the 3DS install base.
6M > 24M.
Capcom made a big mistake. MonHun fans didn't want better graphics.

Thank god PS4 userbase is so massive to warranty a lead over 3DS. And of course if would have sold even better with simpler graphics.
