I live in New York...
The Bronx, to be more specific...
I too see a lot of ACNL and Awakening...
I was seeing a lot of Dark Moon for a while, but that seems to have mostly passed...
If I had to rank them, it would be ACNL, then MHTriU, and then FE Awakening...

I'm from Montreal and I see a lot of people playing this game through StreetPass, along with Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem too. 2.19M is still really good number tough even if only 0.14M in NA as of now...

Game sales are now since 2 weeks on the same number. As much as I see about 15.000 a week worldwide, so it should be 2.07 million right now.

@enrageorange The point is that unlike Arkham, the listed name is substantially different from the actual marketing name, creating a cognitive dissonance when searching for Ultimate. It would be like listing Pokemon Platinum under the name Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. Note that Freedom Unite is listed separately from Freedom 2 (they are much closer in content than 3G vs Tri), as is Monster Hunter G (Wii, PS2) separate from Monster Hunter (PS2). More recent examples: Devil Survivor Overclocked, Gods Eater Burst.

@Novan
For the same reason Arkham City GOTY edition, Fallout GOTY edition, etc. aren't considered separate games. This is just a repackaged version of Tri with a lot of bonus content, equivalent to GOTY editions of a game.
Heart of the Swarm sales are just sales of an expansion not a game. If blizzard had released Starcraft GOTY which included Starcraft 2 base game and Heart of the Swarm it would have counted as Starcraft 2 sales.

Novan posted 04/04/2013, 11:57
3 Ultimate is NOT the same game as Tri, so why is it being listed as the same? Heart of the Swarm gets its its own listing despite being an expansion pack that requires the base game to play. This is a massive standalone expansion that not only adds new content, but changes a lot of the existing stuff from Tri. There's literally no reason to list 3U under Tri...

hm, at first i thought the sales were alittle low, but then i remembered that the wii u version is essentially a 3ds port. so if you combined the 3ds sales and the wii u version sales its selling about the same numbers as monster hunter tri for the wii. wii first week 94k vs 3ds/wii u about 82k. if the legs hold out im sure it will sell well, maybe not great.

This pulled similar numbers to first week dragon's dogma did on the 360 or the PS3. Its the Wii U numbers that arent as good because the system is young. Overall, its performance is similar to dragon's dogma. This might come as a shock, but maybe the game should be released on both portables next time.

@acdcste It's not "only a port" of the Wii version; it's close to triple the size in terms of content. A better approximation would be that it is the Wii version and MHP3 combined, with some additional G-rank monsters. The jump from MHF2 to MHFU is much, much smaller than the jump from Tri to Tri-G, and that didn't stop MHFU from reaching massive sales. I still agree that Vita is a dead-end, but I'm somewhat disappointed in Tri-G sales. My hope is that it will have greater appeal in the West (compared to previous versions, not compared to Japan), where MHP3 was never released.

Its been out for a year not for a week. The sales are excellent by the way as its only a port of the wii version. When monster hunter 4 is released that will easily sell 4-5 million on the 3ds. No way capcom woukd take the franchise away from such a big user base like the 3ds and risk putting it on the vita, regardless of whether or not it sold well for the psp.

@think-man Poor sales? It has only been out for 1 week. The best selling monster hunter game in japan was 4m and it has been out for 4 years. This game will easily reach this. NOT to mention this is A PORT of the wii version. Get your fact rights and stop making yourself look so fanboyish. Companies tend to choose the console/handhelds that have the biggest userbase to sell exclusives. And any normal person would realise that it wouldn't be a good idea by a longshot to put it exclusive on the vita or even the dead psp.

The announcement of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate might taper this one off so it will stay under 2 million for this year, but no doubt overall this has been a success for Capcom and MH4 will do even better.

I think this will get to 2 million in japan alone. Yes the sales are not massive each week, but if its doing 15-22k per week its going to be pretty close by the end of the year. I thought they were releasing it in europe as well yet i have not read anything in the official nintendo magazine.

There are still better ways to tell someone he's wrong. No need to get frustrated and aggressive. The title of the thread is ''Famitsu 2011 Top 100''. I assumed that by 2011 they really meant 2011 not 2011 minus the last week.

Because twice in a row you referenced figures and stated the ones on this site were hugely off. Yet neither time did you bother to even check the figures you were quoting. I think if you give other people links/statistics to read you should at the very least have the courtesy to read them yourself.

@Boutrous *sigh* Are you even reading the links you are posting? That link is only until the 25th of December, not 2011 like you claimed. So it is missing the last big week of the year. So Famitsu had 809k while Vgchartz had 881k. Still not sure where you are getting 200k from.

@Salnax. This should pretty easily pass 2mil unless Monster Hunter 4 comes out soon. The 3ds does not have an established userbase yet. Future 3ds owners will be buying mario kart, mario 3d, and this. It will fly by freedom, and is holding up better than freedom 2.

@VGKing Based on the PSP version's legs, maybe. It'll be a near thing, though sales will probably never reach 1.5 million in Japan. Still, this could theoretically reach 2 million worldwide, beating every non-PSP entry in the series.
