Combined Estimated Physical and Digital Sales: 2,859,784

Oh, but I see now its outdated sales. That's why. I assumed you posted recent sales info so thought it was physical only.

Those digital sales are only counting the first week or so.

You're going to have to link that comment from the director because as recently as July in Capcom's investor's report they admitted that MHW had not been as popular with the MH audience in Japan as they hoped and it was the reason the main NS was getting an MH project targeted at that group which we know is now not one but two ground up games for it this was in regards to whether a port of MHW was in the works for NS.

Nice spin. Try posting actual quotes from the interview like this:

Where Monster Hunter World is selling most regionally:

Q: Sales have greatly surpassed 10 million units, but regionally, where is the game selling the most?

A: The game is of course selling well in every region, but it’s doing especially well in North America. We’ve also maintained our sales numbers for Japan, which is a great result for us. We’ve been saying this since development, but we’ve wanted to welcome players coming to Monster Hunter for the first time, while still satisfying our current domestic audience, so we’re relieved that the game is being well received in both markets.

No spin it's in the investor's meeting which was in July and you'll need to actually provide data to back up your claim on your MHW sales because using Famitsu's numbers and Media Create's the most up to date figure I can find is 2.9m as here are Media Create's numbers from Dec 2018 to Dec 2019 meaning up to 2020 the sales is 2.9m way off from your claimed 3.5-4m.
