Pretty sure it is more enjoyable than monster hunter :P

 

Am sure it is. Have played a bit, it's definitely fun type of game.

 

But Monster Hunter is pretty addictive. They have perfected the gameplay loop over the years 

 

There is a reason why it's biggest Japanese franchise out there.

Hold up, Monster Hunter is the biggest Japanese franchise out there?

 

Where did you pull that from?

Doesn't NPD include data for both physical and digital? 

 

Only if publisher shares it.

That's still wrong.

Sonic, Final Fantasy, Redsident Evil are all bigger. Heck, even Pro evolution soccer is larger than Monster Hunter.

Depends on your definition of most successful. Final Fantasy, Resident Evil titles are 10 million seller each. Sonic titles, new ones can sell 1-2 million each. 

 

Monster Hunter sells more, and is played more. On steam most played titles, FF14 and Monster Hunter World has same no of players, while Rise is far ahead of both.

 

Most importantly, Capcom is taking franchise to new heights by taking right decisions. Newer games are getting easier to get into without loosing qualities that made them popular in first place.

That doesn't make it the 'Largest Non-Nintendo Japanese gaming franchise out there".

The chart in that tweet doesn't include digital sales. That screenshot is cropped in a manner to exclude that disclaimer.

 

The standard of this thread wrt data being shared is at an all time low (low bar to begin with) thanks to the unemployed fanboys here. I'd personally double-check everything before taking it seriously.

Says it includes physical and digital from Ninty, PS steam and xbox platforms. The digital sales only are marked with an Asterix in the list.

lol even Gran Turismo is bigger than Monhun. Although MHW and MHR made big jumps compared to previous games. Half of the total MH franchise sales are split between MHW and MHR. 

Yes, that too. Didn't include that above since they're pretty close.

The right statement for MH would be, The largest non Nintendo Japanese gaming franchise that has a 'Monster' in its title :ko:

 

By that logic, I could say Returnal is the greatest shooter ever made whose title starts with 'R' , ends with 'L' and has 'eturna' between them :P

Fair enough. There's still no way to know whether digital sales for Hifi Rush are included since it's not on the list to begin with. Plus, the game is on GamePass and as pointed out earlier, it's probably the main way people are playing it on Xbox. So, these metrics are pointless, especially for a game that's on GP.
