Sega Unintentionally Discloses Sales Figures for Persona, Sonic, and Other Titles

Sooo… here’s a wild story from the land of Sonic and Persona—Sega kinda spilled some beans and oh boy, the internet did not let it slide. There was this presentation, right? Supposed to be all hush-hush, but someone hit the wrong button, and bam! It was out there on Sega Sammy’s investor site for the world to see. Imagine scrambling like, “Oops, take it back!” But, of course, the internet never forgets, especially the pros over at ResetEra. They snagged the goods, naturally.

Now, I can’t quite figure why this sticks in my brain, but it just does. Persona 5 Royal, yeah, that’s the one with the sparkly Remastered version too—sold over 7.25 million. That’s more people than I’ve ever met. And get this, Persona 3 Reload? Took home the prize of 2.07 million copies. Bet those discs were flying off the shelves like pancakes on a Sunday morning.

And Sonic, dear Sonic. The blue blur zipped through 4.57 million sales with Frontier. Superstars got 2.43 million—now I’m imagining tiny Sonics out there racing. Then Team Sonic Racing joins the lineup, zooming to 3.5 million units sold. The competition among pixels is fierce, isn’t it?

Total War brings its own drama into the mix. Three Kingdoms outdoing Warhammer 3, with numbers like 3.21 mil to 2.34 mil. Numbers that big almost make me dizzy, seriously.

Now, the Like a Dragon saga is in its own league. Infinite Wealth rubbed its hands with 1.66 million sales. But—oh dear—The Man Who Erased Their Name didn’t quite break that magical million mark, stopping at 960 thousand. Ironic, right? Like, it almost erased its own sales glory.

Does all this make me wanna boot up a console? Maybe. Or not. I dunno—sometimes I just get lost in numbers. But anyway, what a ride, huh?
