Although I eventually gave up on the One Piece anime, I have tried to keep up with the videogames based on the series. You see, I am actually a fan... even though I could never make it through the Manga or the Anime. I love the world, the characters, the goofy dialogue and over the top set pieces. I love how inherently Japanese the whole premise is. A rubber boy who wants to become the pirate king and his rag tag crew of incompetent pirates sailing around a bizarre world facing all manner of weird and wonderful villains. What's not to love?

In its financial report for the Fiscal Year 2015, Bandai Namco showed healthy numbers for its latest software titles. Most notably, the firm's latest game release, Dragon Ball Xenoverse, has sold 2.06 million units as of March 31st, 2015. The other game figures revealed were:
-Naruto Shippuden Ultimate: Ninja Storm Revolution - 1 million units
-One Piece: Unlimited World Red - 650k units
-Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment - 570k units
I hope Sword Art Online's figures are enough to convince Namco to localise more Vita titles. Digimon and SAO Lost Song would be pretty nice to have!
Bandai Namco provided an update on the sales of One Piece: Unlimited World Red in its latest financial results report. Since launch, the game has moved 650,000 copies. That figure includes shipments to retailers and digital sales.
