100k? in Japan alone? Not bad.
DmC DE didn't get a physical release in Japan.
Though the part about it selling 100k (at least outside Japan) on PS4 is true.

DMC4SE sold a total of 47,246 copies on PS4 in Japan.
R.I.P., Devil May Cry. Here's a coin, for the ferryman.
Oh no, again with the "DMC is dead" crap. Sigh... are you going to come up with this every week? No, tell me, so that I can prepare a joke in time.
And oh look, once again you bring only Japan and PS4 sales as "proof". Looks like @WolfOD64 is the one with some sense here. You could use some, Gentleman. LOL
EDIT: to be clear, I'm not saying no one can say DMC franchise is dead. BUT you need more than just Japan and PS4 data to back it up. And frankly, as of now, saying it's dead is one hell of a jump in the dark of a statement to make.

The 'DMC is dead' discussion has been done (to death) and doesn't have any place here. I've said it once, I'll say it again, take it back to DMC General Discussion. That's where it was and belongs. This is to discuss DMC 4: Special Edition. Not to make the focus point the future of DMC.
I'm starting to get tired of saying the same thing over and over again.

It's funny how some people seem to get offended, just downight ****ed off that I merely point out that the numbers aren't looking favorable. And numbers, friends...
No you didn't do that. You jumped to a pretty long shot conclusion based on insufficient and inadequate data in an even more inadequate time to do it.
There's been tons and tons about DMC's future already, do we really need another one?
Considering sales trends, no, I don't jump to conclusions. In fact, you are the one jumping to conclusions for actually thinking it still has a living chance after these sales.
I'm not a businessman by any means, but even I wholly understand that when something sells really, really poorly, it's a really, really stupid idea to invest it in further. And Capcom has a trend in not investing in things that even sell well. They expect each and every investment to be dynamite, so they can milk the crap out of it for more cash. Anything less, they consider a failure. It's part of what makes them complete idiots - that they have no imagination or faith in their own brands. But it's also why this is a cold hard truth that you simply refuse to accept: DMC is probably, very likely, very dead. Like, 80% chance. That's eight toes in a grave.
And let's not even get into the lukewarm reviews, which most definitely aren't helping sales...
Instead of denying that 80% exists, you flat earth atheist!, put faith in the 20% and hope that they too will put a little bit of faith in it. That's all you've got. Hope that the last two toes are strong enough to stay out of the box.
Yes you do. You made a statement making it sound as a solid fact even if you said it was an opinion later.
As of now, it is not a fact at all.
I'm just gonna say, DMC4SE probably sold at least 100k copies. It's confirmed that it sold 40k in Japan and 35-45k on PC in general.

Thats why I said 35-45k, it is a little inacurrate but it seems to work pretty well when you compare it to what the publishers say.
@Foxtrot94 I don't actually really know, I assume "Audience" refers to people viewing the Steam page or something?
Hmmm the graph puts in relation the time people played in a certain date... dunno what it is for, though.
