Over 3 million Pokémon sold in three days

Lots of people caught Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
Jonas Mäki Editor Sweden 26 November 2014

According to the Japanese video game magazine Famitsu, Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire has sold over 3 million copies in just three days. And those incredible numbers are actually even more impressive that it looks since it's only retail (no digital download) and the game isn't even out in Europe yet (lands this Friday).

That's some massive sakes right there. Check our review to see whether this might be a game for you.

Thanks, Kotaku.
