The Sailor Moon video game series is based on Naoko Takeuchi's manga and anime series of the same name. The series was released in Japan during the height of the media franchise's popularity. By 1995, there were ten game releases, each with sales figures of about 200,000 to 300,000.[1] By 1998, twenty games were released.[2]
Unfortunately, even though the Sailor Moon anime franchise is very popular worldwide, the vast majority of Japanese video games based on this series are never officially released outside of Asia, outside of a few Europe-exclusive video games.
