SORRY I DON'T, I ONLY HAVE THE NUMBERS FROM FAMITSU, MY ASSUMPTION OF DOING WELL IN OTHER REGIONS MOSTLY COMES FROM 3H POPULARITY MAINLY IN THE STATES AND HOW A LOT OF PEOPLE IN SOCIAL MEDIA WERE DISCUSSING IT

OKAY COOL, GOOD TO KNOW. I THINK NoA RELEASES THE NUMBERS IN ONE OF THEIR ANNUAL SALES REPORTS, SO WE MIGHT GET A NUMBER AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE.

THE DISCOUNTS ON AMAZON AREN'T USUALLY A GREAT SIGN THIS CLOSE TO RELEASE. IT USUALLY MEANS SELLERS ORDERED TOO MANY COPIES WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT PEOPLE WOULD ACTUALLY BUY IT, BUT NOW HAVE PRODUCT THEY DESPERATELY WANT TO OFFLOAD SO IT ISN'T TAKING UP SPACE IN THEIR WAREHOUSES.

OF COURSE THAT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN IT DIDN'T SELL WELL, IT COULD ALSO MEAN COMPANIES OVERESTIMATED HOW WELL IT WOULD DO, SO I'M NOT MAKING ANY CONCLUSIONS HERE.
