Doesn't seem very good, but how well did Famicom/Super Famicom Mini do?

Famitsu just published a preliminary sales report (something they only do for major hardware launches), and revealed that the plug-n-play console sold over 260 000 units during its launch week in Japan (262 961 units to be precise). (This was sold out completely) Famitsu just published a preliminary sales report (something they only do for major hardware launches), and revealed that the plug-n-play console sold over 368 000 units during its launch week in Japan (368 913 units to be precise).

Regarding the Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Famicom, Media Create report that it sold about 340 000 units during its opening week (slightly less than what Famitsu reported, earlier this week).

So, pretty weak it is, wonder if it can reach SFC 1st week as LT sales in Japan with all the bad press the Playstation Classic recieved

Famicom was 250k, SNES was 350k

It's 12 million USD in revenue for Sony for very little effort. I'd say that's extremely solid.

Pretty sure though they were expecting much more than this. Just one third of the SFC classic is maybe not a disaster, but definitely very underwhelming.
