Yakuza 3 ships 500,000
03/19/2009 Written by Dan Massi
SEGA has confirmed that Yakuza 3, the third game in the popular Japanese series, has shipped 500,000 units since release last month. Though the sales of Yakuza 3 have been great, the game is less than likely to arrive in North America and Europe.
SEGA had previously said that the game would not release outside of Japan due to past installments failing to spark interest in North America and Europe.

Great news to see it selling well, bad news that it’s not coming state side. I really can’t blame them since it never sells well. Hopefully they will do an English version, so we can import it.

I have to admit that is damn good considering it’s Japan only.
Wait, is it all of Asia? Or Japan only?

I think it was Japan only.

Shame were not going to see it, such a good series.

The demo I played off the Japanese PSN store is a lot of fun. I don’t read Japanese, but I was able to make my way through the demo. I’d probably buy it if it did ever make it’s way over here.

I hated that demo, but anytime a game ships (not yet sells?) this well in Japan is always a good thing!
