Tsutaya’s report

– Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain had overwhelming sales and faced some stock problems.
– The PS4 version sold the double of the PS3’s one. The special version sold the most at Tsutaya’s stores, but that’s because the standard version had lack of stock.
– Adding sales of both hardware versions (PS3 and PS4), it surpassed Metal Gear Solid IV debut. 
– Hardware was also strong for PS4, it sold 3 times more than the past week.
