Pokemon X and Y Sales

[Demon_Skeith]

Nintendo has announced Pokemon X and Y have managed to sell more than 4 million copies worldwide in two days.

As the game launched globally in Japan, Europe and the Americas on Saturday, this figure reflects how many units were purchased by the end of Sunday October 13.

No other Pokemon title has been released globally, so while an accurate comparison is hard to make, Nintendo has announced that if regional data is combined and compared, Pokemon X and Y is easily the fastest-selling 3DS title of all time.

Additionally, the company also gave some insight into the lifetime total sales of other entries in the franchise. Pokemon Diamond and Pearl are the best performers, having sold 17.63 million units worldwide, following by Ruby and Sapphire with 16.22 million units, Black and White with 15.42 millions units, HeartGold and SoulSilver with 12.67 million units and FireRed and LeafGreen with 12 million units.

Uh. DP aren't the best sellers. The first two generations are.

4 million copies for 2 days seems really nice to say the truth

Wow, 4 millions in two days? It can surpass Diamond and Pearl in just one week or so. Hmm, what about Emerald?

In Japan, mostly college students got Pokemon X/Y, >_>

But I was expecting nothing less out of Pokemon X/Y. These 6 gen Pokemon games deserve it. Pokemon Y is the best Pokemon game that I've played.

This is much better than I was expecting them to do. I am still amazed at how they've been doing with these games.

I'd get that if I could.
