>Famitsu published their findings this week with Monster Hunter: World achieving 1,350,412 physical copies sold within the first three days, setting a new record for a PS4 game released in Japan. They also put it at the highest possible sellthrough estimation level (80~100%) and estimated the grand total could even exceed 2 million copies if digital sales are included.
>Dengeki's findings from ASCII Media Works weren't too far either, with Monster Hunter: World setting 1,333,602 physical copies sold in the same period with an estimated sellthrough rate of around 95%. It is set to surpass even the PS4 version of Dragon Quest XI which sold 946 thousand copies in its first week and has a total sales of 1.374 million copies. Dengeki assumes the digital sales ratio at around 30%, which would put the grand total to around 2 million copies just like Famitsu. They even mention that World could see even higher numbers had Capcom shipped more stocks in Japan.

What did you expect? These guys care more for the title than the actual game itself. I'm willing to bet that the people who participate in the "MHW SOLD WELL WOOO" threads don't even have the game themselves.
Parker Evans
>blame nintensoys Yeah let's not accuse the source of the problem let's just scapegoat to fight our insecurities! I never saw any autistic sales threads when 4U and Gen came out so your argument doesn't really hold any weight.
Colton Ramirez
...
Lucas Cook
4U and Gen are 2 games that came up after MH made it's move to 3DS with 4. There would be no reason to shitpost about sales at that time. So yes, soytendos are still at fault in this case.
Elijah Jones
>I never saw any autistic sales threads when 4U and Gen came out That's because they didn't happen everyone was too busy hunting.
Joseph Perez

Gavin Myers
>So yes, soytendos are still at fault in this case. For getting a game and not talking about the sales. Not the people who were whining about MH being stolen from the PSP or that it should have been on Vita.
Christ, you Sonykids have the worst victim complex.

Exactly, now look at what happens when those games come onto a Sony console with its current fanbase.

Brandon Cox
Well yeah, it's Monster Hunter. Are you really surprised?
Ryan Anderson
>shifting your blame What? You pretty much said yourself people weren't autistic enough to obsess over sales with 4U and Gen and they just played the game. Because there were no sonyfags.
Sebastian Richardson

Luis Ward
>OP here and I don't own a PS4. Then why do you feel the need to defend their actions if you don't feel like you're one of them? Unless you're trying to say that no one should be happy playing a game because it makes others feel bad.
Jayden Edwards
You seem to not be understanding what I'm implying. No one was there to shitpost about sales when 4U and XX came out, because MH already made the move to 3DS with 4. Which means no one was there to shit on those two games for the entire duration of its announcement till the day it was released. No one claimed those two games wouldn't sell.
Jaxson Perez
But will the PS4 version of Dragon Quest XI surpass MHW sales outside of Japan?
Owen Baker
OP you're a giant faggot. I am GLAD i was wrong about World selling in japan. I wanted world to be successful because i like monster hunter. I just didn't expect it to sell well. I can only assume you have the mind of a child if you can't understand the difference between wants and expectations.
David White

The news is going to tear Sup Forums up even worse when western numbers come out, user. And then the holy ass-ravaging that will shut this shitty board down will come when it's released on PC.
Wyatt Martin
I know the point you're trying to make, but the game has sold like 4 million copies worldwide and the monster hunter subculture on this site is pretty strong. Statistically speaking, you'd have a hard time finding an actual Sonybro who is happy monster hunter sold well while also not owning the game.
Granted there's probably a shitload of trolls who know this is a huge sore spot for both console fanbases since MH is such a beloved franchise. Easy to get a you or two out of people in this state.
Connor Bennett
...
Ethan Anderson
>No one claimed those two games wouldn't sell. That's because they weren't on consoles MH doesn't typically sell well on consoles you know. World is literally the first time it's done exceedingly well. With that said we had people shitposting left, right and center about MH4U not going to consoles like 3UHD did. Speaking of 3U we had the usual Sony kids spouting about it being "stolen" from them because it wasn't going to the Vita. For the longest time we would have people complaining about it and saying that it would have saved the Vita and things to that degree.
So yes we didn't have sales shitposting back then but we did have a massive amount of them until the game came out.
Lincoln Sanders
>established meme on Sup Forums It's forced cancer that this faggot is trying to shoehorn on all the (major) boards. I'm surprised how fast he's drawing up the mutations, or maybe he made most of them beforehand before spamming his AIDS.
I sometimes get the feeling it is, the replies associated with nujaks seem overly generic and out of place sometimes, like it's been scripted.
Zachary Hughes
Honestly, what went so fucking right? I thought Japs were a country of mobile. Not only did PS4 managed to peak their interests, they also loved western Monster Hunter.
Logan Roberts
It's the only thing Sup Forums cares about.
Jaxson Phillips
Not that Sup Forums adheres to statistics. This place is like an enigma at times.
Connor Ross
C-could this game reach 6mil...? I see so many normies on Facebook who bought the game and I never would have imagined they'd be buying it.
Brandon Parker
Sup Forumsro...my body isn't ready. If this game sells that much then there's no way MHW won't be supported with extra content for a good while.
Lucas Bell
>thought japs were a country of mobile first off, it's pique interest, not peak second. mobile gaming may be more popular in japan than it is in the west, but I would be surprised to hear if it was more popular as a whole. monster hunter sold well as mobile series because that's the only way the game was released. It's evident from the switch being released as a "mobile console" that they needed a happy medium between mobile gamers and stay at homers. Also, Monster Hunter is popular enough there to merit a purchase on any system, mobile or not.
Mason White
>because that's the only way the game was released. It's because console MH games flopped dude. World and to a lesser extent Tri are literally the only successful games.
That's half the reason why everyone thought World would flop. 1, 2, P3rdHD, 3UHD all sub million sellers.
Christian Rodriguez
1 and 2 are sub million because it was a niche ip. tri was because it had no content compared to the previous, and because it released on the fucking wii and you had to have a classic controller to play it properly. p3rd sold more on portable cause it's literally in the name. 3uhd was for wii u and that one is self explanatory. All it took was to release a good version on console and voila
John Rivera
>Very popular series with Japanese gamers >Announce that series will be making it's greatest entry yet, on multiple console platforms and PC >Japanese gamers migrate over to play the newest entry It's pretty obvious how it sold so well despite Japan being "m-muh portables!" Fun fact, the portable gaming market is basically the dudebro casual market over here.
Mason Jackson
I am glad that monster hunter world is selling so well if only because those Nintendo piss babies keep saying it won't when it was announced. You are not getting monster hunter back now.
Christopher Gonzalez
no matter how many times you say this it just isn't true user.
Brody Turner
>1 and 2 are sub million because it was a niche ip. It kind of moved away from niche status as of FU. So that's three games that didn't sell despite the established popularity of the series.
>you had to have a classic controller to play it That's a complete misconception. The game was fine without it.
Basically the only reason World sold well was because they lowered the bar for entry.
Ian Gray
The west will get XX localized after MHW sales have slowed. They need as many switch owners who are dying to play the greatest MonHun to buy the game before they give them XX.
Jason Ramirez
Imagine the people who are furious about this news. I'm glad Monster Hunter is doing well despite some changes.
Benjamin Anderson
Just like how people said world won't sell?
Nathan Smith
>The west will get XX localized after MHW sales have slowed. Yeah I doubt it, they've lost the fanbase that wanted that game.
Mason Jenkins
Where does Monster Hunter go from here?
Connor Diaz
Multiplayer and Squads invites still suck dick with errors, shit game
Ryder Nelson
Hopefully G rank dlc. If not, we'll get another one in 2 years on everything but the switch.
Eli Stewart
>MHW succeeding in japan but for months I heard that they wouldn't like it because it's westernized and not portable, was that all just sour grapes?
Christian Murphy
is it okay if i pretend to be minami and my palico is anya?
Parker Sanchez
>was that all just sour grapes? Less sour grapes and more based on the fact that MH has never sold particularly well on consoles. Tri was the previous best seller at about 1.9m the rest didn't even cross 1m.
Ryan Lewis
contrary to the belief here, nips love western shit. at game shops, some even have a separate western session. i mean, they make their anime girls blonde

Wyatt Allen
>vita you're fucking up user, you need to keep your kids away from anime
Asher Perez
you don't understand nintenfat syndrome. they cling onto their little childhoods -- then things were "better" -- in hopes of something good happening. this "something good" is usually their believing that daddy nintendo will fly them over to japan, give them a fancy dinner, then present them with a beautiful, teenage bride just because they buy and defend nintendo on the internet
Dylan Taylor
nigger, there are plenty of non-anime games
John Smith
>wish for a ps4 monster hunter >get the easiest entry ever with a tiny roster and no new weapons
Landon Ward
Would it be "my wife's son" if it were a nintendo fan? Asking for a friend

Dude, you're talking to people who clamored for a title and are rubbing it in the faces of people who are playing the game regardless instead of playing the game themselves.

Additional content in general, G-rank (possibly as DLC in this day and age, depends on if Capcom wants to print a new release; PC would definitely be DLC/an automatic upgrade in the vein of Ultra Street Fighter 4), possible reversion to previous mechanics such as negative skills
Most likely to me is they'll just go back to being handheld since they made the most bank they ever have on the 3DS
Aiden Lewis
Christ shut up you babies cried just as much over tri and 4, the only people being sales obsessing faggots are sonygggers. They didn't want anything to do with MonHun when it was on 3DS, to them the series was dead or irrelevant, but here comes World and AH HOW DO YOU DO FELLOW MONSTER HUNTER FANS I AM A FAN TOO
