Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir Escapes The Sales Curse

Last week saw the release of Tecmo and Nintendo’s Fatal Frame spin-off, Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir in Japan. The game ranked #7 on the software sales chart for the week, and sold 16,351 copies.

 

That sounds pretty terrible, doesn’t it?

 

It turns out, it isn’t. Media-Create say that’s 74.24% of the game’s shipment, which means that most of it sold out. It looks like Nintendo’s estimates were more or less on the mark.

 

Non-Japanese players will get to play the game, too; Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir is the game’s English title. Nintendo of America confirmed this week that they’ll be releasing the game in April.
