Monster Hunter 4 was with 4.1mil the best selling Monster Hunter on 3DS and Rise is just below it after it's first year. It'll top it this year without issue.

Btw Story of Seasons: PoOt I think sold more than previous games used to sell but I'm not sure. It had the by far biggest launch of the franchise anyway.

Best selling was actually Freedom 3 on PSP/PS3 (DL) (4.9m) then Generations (4.3m) with Generations being the best selling on a single platform as it only released in Japan with Ultimate (4.4m) being the multiplatform version, Rise will be around 4.1m as we know digital is about 1.8m going by Capcom's comments when they said half of the reported 7.5m in Q2 (FY) last year was from Japan, going by this number and Famitsu's current physical estimate it would put Rise at roughly 4.1m already and that's if digital hasn't moved since then.

I know Freedom 3/Portable 3rd is the best selling. I said on 3DS and in Japan. Both MH4 Ultimate and MH Generations obviously globally outsold MH4, that was only released in Japan, but neither actually reached 4mil in Japan, only the original MH4 did, on the 3DS. Rise is definitely outperforming that.
