Here are some Japanese Retailer Specific Pre-Order Items for Tekken 7

Tekken 7 is getting a mixed batch of assorted Tekken related merchandising and items for specific retailers as newly detailed on the Tekken 7 website. Purchasing a copy of Tekken 7 will net you certain goodies with the game depending on the store you bought it from. The retailer specific items includes a PlayStation theme, T-shirts, card stickers, acrylic Key holders, posters and even customization items from the arcade version of the game for the console release. Since this is an English website, I'm going to skip mentioning how you can get everything but If you're Japanese, check out the Tekken 7 website for all the details:

95% of Tekken Console Sales are from Outside Japan

That figure of Tekken console players also don't have access to the game as it turns out. Harada gave a closer breakdown of the console Tekken franchise sales figure with listing Europe > United States > Asia & Oceania > Japan. There's not much commentary to add to this so here's the source from Siliconera.

Tekken 3 Sold 8.3 Million Worldwide

Just a random, little bit of sales info on Tekken 3 that the series director: Katsuhiro Harada dropped on Twitter that I thought that some might be interested in. In the tweet, Harada mentions that the home ports (PS1 versions) of Tekken 3 sold 8,360,000 worldwide and that 1,400,000 of which is from Japan alone. I think this puts Tekken 3 as the second most best selling fighting game title of all time which is just underneath Super Smash Bros. Brawl. (iirc SSBB > Tekken 3 > SSBM > SF2:WW > Tekken 2)
