YOKAI WATCH 2 FOR NINTENDO 3DS HAD 814,000 PRE-ORDERS IN JAPAN

JULY 11, 2014 SICKR 30 COMMENTS

We knew Yokai Watch 2 would be a massive success in Japan, but what we didn’t know is how many Japanese consumers pre-ordered the title. Japanese sales tracking firm Media Create reports that Yo-Kai Watch 2 had 814,000 pre-orders in Japan as of last week. Siliconera says that pre-orders would have exceeded this number had retailers had enough stock to go around. The game is on sale at retailers in Japan and you wan watch the first forty-two minutes of the game, right here.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

That's insane. What was the maximum amount of preorders MarioKart 8 ever got worldwide? I think they were around 700.000-800.000 units. Youkai II has more JAPAN ONLY. This game has to come to the west soon.



You know it deserves the GOTY.
