Obviously "censorship" affected this game sales :P. At last, good news.

link? Everywhere I'm reading, this includes all sales of the 3rd DLC.

So much restraint not to go over the chopping up of one game into 3 parts you buy.

As for 3rd dlc counted as a game its obviously not since...

1. It doesnt have revelations in the title just birthright and conquest.

2. Excluding reason 1, nintendo never included revelations as a game with Birth+Con before

3. Most importantly look at the sales. More specifically at japan. Its at 780k. We have the game sold around what 560k in japan? If you were to include dlc in it from the special edition and dl from revelation and unsold copies wouldnt it far exceed 780k? 

Nintendo just said that FE Fates shipped 1.84m. Not Birthright/Conquest. So either's a 3rd game that included in the overall numbers or it's not its own game and counted as DLC.

Great numbers, but I really hope they won't continue the 2 game model in the future.. :/

Those numbers are great, but if you have to buy two versions plus a third one to get the whole game, obviously the numbers are going to be great. Nintendo, make more stock of the special edition, I would pay for it, I swear.

I got the SE which had all 3, so.... what does that make me?!

 

Also, nice to hear it's selling well! I hope we continue to get more FE games!!!! Maybe one on a home console?

Who would have thought FE would sell better in the US over Japan. Man, Smash can make any franchise popular. I mean, granted the franchise has good production values like FE.

Smash Bros is at this point the best marketing machine for Nintendo.

Sad thing is because of these great sales for this game, every new game in the franchise is going to be like Fates.
