MGS4 sells 300,000 on day one in Japan

According to Media Create first day data, Metal Gear Solid 4 sold approximately 300,000 units on its first day on sale in Japan.

The game went on sale Thursday. Around 170,000 units were of the limited edition, apparently.

Thanks, NeoGaf.

Zoinks!

I wonder how many PS3s they sold?

If that’s Japan, I think Konami’s “we need to sell 1 million units on day 1″ statement from a few months back could hold true.

Good for them, now if only the Belgian post wasn’t so painfully slow, I could actually enjoy it myself.

Looks like this is going to be a big hit. Good job Konami.

The sales geek in me can’t wait to see the hardware figures. =)

Good news. It does deserve to sell bucketloads.
