Japanese Sales Chart: Devil Survivor 2 Debuts on Top (Week Ending February 1, 2015)
Another week of sales data has filtered through from Japan, and this week saw yet another 3DS title debut on top, namely Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker.
The 3DS was not as prolific as usual in the top ten, though it still featured five games. The Wii U’s Kirby and the Rainbow Curse dropped down to sit at number eight, moving another 12,000 units, and Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart 8 still made the top twenty at numbers fourteen and nineteen respectively.
In hardware, not a great deal has changed this week, with the only positional change being the New 3DS, which bumped up to fourth position. The new 3DS XL/LL maintained its top spot with another 21,000 sales. The Wii U stayed solid almost 7000 units to come at number six.
Check out the full list below and let us know your thoughts on the sales situation in Japan this week.
