Yakuza 3 Sales

Whenever a new Yakuza game launches in Japan, it usually jumps straight to the top of the software charts, and the PlayStation 4 remaster of Yakuza 3 has done just that. That said, it only moved 26,000 copies, which is very low for a Yakuza title, but perhaps not unexpected given that it's a remaster. The wacky Fire Pro Wrestling World also made the top 5 on PS4, entering in fourth place with 20,200 copies.

This is the first time in a while that Nintendo's iron grip on the software charts has loosened, although that doesn't mean things have improved for Sony on the hardware front. PS4 and PS4 Pro sales are still rather lacking, with combined numbers barely managing to break 20,000 units.
