Metroid Dread's legs continue to chug along.
I recently did some research in Nintendo's other first party titles and found that usually Famitsu's sales data is around 75-80% of Nintendo's shipped + digital figures in Japan.
So if we put those numbers up for Dread and the 128k units it has sold so far:
That gives us these projected shipped + digital numbers:
80% - 160k
75% - 171k
The latter would already put Dread in a tie for the 4th best selling Metroid game in Japan alongside Fusion. The top 3 are still the OG game (1.04m), Super Metroid (710k), and the OG Return of Samus (560k).
