If you include P3rd, it's the 5th!But this basically is the 3rd version of this game (4th if you include P3rd but they're pretty different) of a series that has its popularity come from being on portables.
Nice numbers! I wonder if the lower end stuff also saw a ~10k bump?

Isn't P3rd completely different from Tri/3G/Ultimate?
Tomorrow. In about 18 hours.When do the next Media Crate results come out and when are they posted on GAF? Old question, I know.
I'll take Famitsu's word over yours.
Either, the ultimate proof that Famitsu does count bundles for software lies with Wii Sports Resort.
I asked Yoshi Mills at Famitsu - apparently - they do not, but Yoshi is double checking for me
They requested sales figure providers to not include some time ago (apparently) . You can believe that if you want, you can check my twitter feed where you can see the first few exchanges with Yoshi.
Not concrete admittedly but curious to know what the deal is. End of the day it's retailers sending in figures under instruction, so god only knows.
So believe Famitsu, then.
For someone with Jonnyram's experience you expected more.
A mod really has to change the title and OP.
I dislike this argument. Software from established franchises sell poorly all the time. To focus on the 3rd version of Orochi and dismiss Monster Hunter selling better than any 3rd party launch game on a console last gen strikes me as being pretty selective.
If you o someone has PM'd them and they still haven't (the Orbis/Durango thread got updated), may be worth just making a new thread.

@ntheweird Strange question : do you know if Famitsu software sales include hardware bundles? e.g. GT5 PS3 pack? Many thanks
@DCharlieJP I forgot the Rule since I'm not marketing guy. My opinion is software sales rank should count just sw sales.(Bundle is hardware)
@ntheweird cheers ! I'd heard the same from other people too - but i hear something different elsewhere. Thanks!
@DCharlieJP Announcement/press release like "** sold half mili" sometime count bundles. Cheap number trick. #Generally_in_industry
@ntheweird yeah, my thought was Famitsu numbers were raw software figures - no bundles. Someone is telling me otherwise, but i'm not sure
Think this needs a new thread? Famitsu posted numbers for the first 2 days of sales and Wii U's top 3 software.
Wii U - 308,570
NSMBU - 170,563
MH3G HD Ver. - 110,149
Nintendo Land - 78,461

It seems to apply to the main Nintendo titles the most. I wonder if Famitsu felt they under estimated the Nintendo titles to begin with and then ajusted it (Famitsu tracks 53% of the market or something, while the rest is estimated).Nice numbers! I wonder if the lower end stuff also saw a ~10k bump?
I don't understand the discussion, it's so obvious that Famitsu (and Media Create) includes bundle copies in software.
Actually, I've been wondering if initial sales were off to a good start, and how it compares to MHTri sales. Seriously.Is this supposed to be sarcasm? Because it has a severe ignorance to call its sales bad.
So, how are Orochi and Tekken numbers for a launch system?

Guessing he had more to say away from Twitter, then? From Twitter, it was just his opinion on bundles and not his department.
I'm wondering, how good exactly was the marketing or this? Can Japan Gaf speak out on how good or bad it was? I remember there was that super wii commercial but it seemed pretty bad
That's good news for Nintendo.
and bad news for obama
and bad news for obama
So first shipment was what, about 345k?
I think I read there will be some sort of restock but 2nd week numbers will stillbe pretty low, just like Wii in 2006.
The Yodobashi Camera by my house had black and white Wii Us on the shelf yesterday. Not sure if they're still there, but considering they had none on Sunday, gonna assume they got some kind of restock.
It sold out again. Next shipment is due on the 20th.And the black Wii U is/was in stock on amazon today.
it was a meme in the 2008 democratic primaries among frustrated hillary supporters, which carried over to the general. any piece of news, whether it was positive or negative for obama, was billed as "bad news for obama" because of <tortured logic x to prove that hillary was the only acceptable nominee>

holy crap, was that where it started? i thought it was just a 2012 general election thing.
Nintendo >_> Where is all there stock going considering Europe seemed to get the short end of the stick and they were supposed to have 3.5 million out before the end of the year.
Same here.
North America? Seems to be in stock everywhere...either there is little interest or good supply.
Is it actually a possibility they shipped 2 milion to NA?
I would say maybe, pretty close. I know some retailers have had 5+ shipments.
~2mil America
~1+mil Europe
~1+mil Japan
This is plausible by the end of the month.
Premium - 50%
Basic - 25%
MH Bundle - 25%
