Capcom has announced that Monster Hunter 4 has set a shipment record for a third-party 3DS game in Japan. In just four days the game has shipped two million units. This includes sales at retail and through the 3DS eshop.
"Capcom is pleased to announce that shipments of its Monster Hunter 4 game for Nintendo 3DS in Japan have exceeded two million units," said Capcom in a press release.

Freaking impressive!
Wait, they only planned to ship 2.8 million my March 31st? Haven't they been paying attention to pre-orders, this could sell 4 million lifetime in Japan if advertised properly
Man, I wish this game was a humongous hit, like 7, 8 million units, I love Capcom and they are in dire straits right now, they sur need a little break.
I just hope that this game comes to the West soon.....
By the way.... There´s a WiiU version of it on the works, there isn´t ?
Is there really? That would massively help Wii u if true!!!
I hope so.
But it cant be. The internets said it will only sale on a PS platform. Now its shipping more units than Vita has in worldwide sales? It cant be true cause Sony didn't say it.
hehehe... what a sense of humor.
Sony make big mistake not makng this PS Vita exclusive or at least multiplat
Looking forward for something on the big table aka PS4!
Umm... which records? -_-
