Capcom Pleased With Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate On 3DS

Capcom has announced that Monster Hunter 4G on the 3DS – released as Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate in North America and Europe – has shipped more than four million units worldwide.

It's not unusual for companies to tout the number of units they sent out to stores, but Capcom's figures are worth noting because they include download cards and digital sales from the Nintendo eShop.

Our Take
While we don't know the mix of traditional retail vs. digital sales (it probably skews predominately toward retail) these ship/sales numbers could also be significant because the game is on a single platform.
