Kuro2 is flat relatively to first game (+~500 copies actually), plus i think digital also grew slightly in the last year. Not amazing results, but at least sales downtrend is stopped for the time, which is surely a positive thing.

Uneventful week, for the most part.

Hardware sales are normal, Splatoon keeps doing bonker numbers, and The Legend of Heroes is doing as weak as they have been doing these past years.
