Unlike in North America where sales figures are seldom reported and the total amount of shipped units of a game are barely mentioned at all, in Japan both of these figures are freely shared to the public courtesy of a sales tracking company Media Create.
Now Persona 4: Arena came out last week in Japan and it actually happened to sell through 90% of its shipment on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 version of the game. This is obviously great news for the first ever Persona fighting game, but what is even better is the fact that their PlayStation 3 sales of the game, 128,485 copies, surpassed the opening week of Street Fighter IV, Tekken 6, BlazBlue and others.
