Super Mario 3D World has been received very well here in North America and Europe, but it looks like Japan hasn’t cared for it too much. Numbers for last week’s sales in Japan are out and Super Mario 3D World debuted at number 2 on the list. What’s worse is the game doesn’t appear to be the system seller in Japan that it seems it will be here in the United States at least. The Wii U only moved 21k units in the same week, which is only up 6k units from the previous week. It was also outsold by the PS Vita. Hmm.
