    Any idea what the sales and general reception of Yakuza has been in the west, anyone?
    I know Yakuza 0 was the most successful so far when it arrived last year, managing to make the top ten at least, breifly placing in at 8th.

    Marvellous all around, knew it was only a matter of time.

      Well, i don’t know much in details but Sega said that the only reason Kiwami 2 happened, was because of surprisingly well sells of both 0 and Kiwami.
