GAME

Game is the double platinum first original studio album (second overall) by J-pop group Perfume, and is their first album to feature wholly new material, as opposed to the previously released Perfume: Complete Best, which was a compilation. It was released on April 16, 2008. When Game debuted at number 1 on the Oricon charts, the album became the first technopop album to reach at number 1 since Yellow Magic Orchestra did so with their album Naughty Boys in 1983. According to Tokyograph, this makes Perfume only the second technopop group ever to achieve this position. Game sold a total of 467,203 copies in Japan and has been certified Double Platinum by RIAJ. The album is currently the group's highest selling album, as well as Nakata Yasutaka's highest-selling produced album or material in his career, yielding him a string of four successful albums in the same year.
