Very encouraging to see just how well the Japanese have taken to Etrian Odyssey IV, the first week sales are 50% of the best selling entry in the series to date, which was the previous entry. Rather worringly Sega’s anticipated Anarchy Reigns has been met with lukewarm response and nestles in in eighth with just 20,000 units sold.
- Nintendo 3DS: 51,930 (65,267)
- PlayStation 3: 14,297 (16,399)
- PlayStation Vita: 11,544 (22,638)
- PlayStation Portable: 10,627 (11,461)
- Wii: 6,654 (6,880)
- Xbox 360: 711 (861)
- Nintendo DSi: 455 (657)
- PlayStation 2: 474 (490)
A rather poor week all around, the 3DSs worst performance since the price cut, but still beats the rest of the hardware combined. The Vita has fallen back down to its usual level of just over 10,000 a week.
