HD 1.5 ReMIX sells 128,000 copies in 4 days, ranks 2nd for the week

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX released in Japan on March 14, 2013. 4Gamer.net have revealed that between March 14 and March 17, the game sold 128,414 copies. For the week between March 11 to March 17 in Japan, this placed HD 1.5 ReMIX in 2nd place, just behind Sword Art Online: Infinity Moment. 4Gamer.net also posted their reader reviews score for the title-- 90/100!

Famitsu's own sales estimates for the March 11 to March 17 week have also appeared online, giving slightly different numbers for HD 1.5 ReMIX. Famitsu places the weeks sales at 131,940 copies, making HD 1.5 ReMIX the top-selling game of the week! Either way, these are very good numbers for a HD collection in Japan. We have collected the first week sales of various PlayStation 3 HD collections in Japan below, for comparison:

304,073 - Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD Ver.
128,414 - Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX
89,112 - The ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection
59,060 - Metal Gear Solid HD Edition
44,221 - Devil May Cry HD Collection

13,064 - God of War Collection
7,280 - Silent Hill HD Collection
6,404 - Ratchet & Clank Collection
5,542 - God of War: Origins Collection

As you can see, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX is off to a great start in Japan. In fact, as far as we can tell, this is the second-fastest selling HD remaster in Japan of all time. Congratulations to the Kingdom Hearts series!

Wow. That is very impressive. Square Enix did do a very good job in advertising and they even made a timeline for publicizing. TV Ads, Posters, Promotions, even one where they invited fans to film a commercial and then gave them goodies. Very good methods of drawing in lots of people. I feel like it will continue to get bigger once people see how awesome the game is and be introduced to people that never heard of Kingdom Hearts.

Wow, so that's howm much the MGS HD Edition sold on the first week. Glad to know how many units that and the Peace Walker HD Edition did. Though i am glad to see KH did well on its first week. Though I think we all know that once Wind Waker HD comes out that will blow KH 1.5 (and supposedly 2.5) out of the water once it's released.

Japan sure loves Monster Hunter :P Anyway great news.

I'm glad to see that Zone of the Enders is on the list, congrats to 1.5 too but I always knew it would do well so I'm not surprised. I can still hope for a Z.O.E 3 though right? I mean that's what HD remakes are for right? To prepare for the next release?

Wow, that's very cool! I guess it's very popular in Japan.

i'm confused, how is KH the highest selling game of the week if Monster Hunter sold over double.shouldn't it be Highest selling PS3 game of the week.

 

 

Never mind, misread one bit

 

Also, final sale records put the SAO game at 138,000 units sold, so KH still came second
