Media Create Sales: Week 1, 2012 (Jan 02 - Jan 08)

[gembel]

is there enough stock of vita? or people just not buying?

[The_Darkest_Red]

"Vita shatters the 500,000 milestone."

[Scum]

Gah! Nasty drop offs for everything! But damn @ the Holy Trinity. :O

[DMPrince]

Finally Vita.

[bigtroyjon]

What's the PS2's lowest week?

[Road]

is there enough stock of vita? or people just not buying?

People are holding off for the next big thing that will for sure 100% happen on the Vita.

[Mpl90]

:( at Shinrei Camera. Let's see if it has some sort of legs. Very low for Ace Bomba. Bomba, indeed. OH MY GOD AT VITA O_O

[matmanx1]

Pretty low sales all the way around this week for anyone not named "3DS". I'm especially surprised at how low Ace Combat 3DS is but maybe I shouldn't be.

[JosephManderley]

is there enough stock of vita? or people just not buying?

Not buying.

[Alrus]

Bombs everywhere!

Everything dropped even worse than I thought. And damn the Vita is already at sub 20k, that's pretty damning :|

[cw_sasuke]

Vita in coma, Ace Combat bomba ( though is "just" expected >30K in its first week).
3DS trio is still going strong.

[Phonomezer]

Oh dear.

[fernoca]

Not surprising declines for nearly everything, still 3DS hardware and software doing great. with 7 games in the Top 20 (and 8 for the Wii)

[Mpl90]

[Kenka]

This thread will be full of bitterness, starting with me : Spirit Camera :-(

[Road]

What's the PS2's lowest week?

http://garaph.info/labs/besttoworst.php//sys/PS2

2011-05-16 1,129


Although, Famitsu has been lower:

2011-11-07 627


EDIT: By the way, it seems that page isn't working for some systems.

[idlewild_]

wow, MH3G held better than the Mario games. that's pretty poor for vita D:

[Datschge]

"Vita shatters the 500,000 milestone."

"And there was much rejoice."

Again no Vita game in the top 20. Let's see if at least Hot Shots Golf can keep itself within the top 30.

[duckroll]

Low ass sales all round this week.

[Kenka]

Vita

[Mpl90]

This thread will be full of bitterness, starting with me : Spirit Camera :-(

Well, at least it's coming over here! We'll give it the love it deserves :P

02. / 00. [NDS] Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Masou Kishin - The Lord of Elemental (Bandai Namco) - 80.764 / NEW
01./00. [PSP] Super Robot Wars OG Saga: Masou Kishin II - Revelation of Evil God <SLG> (Bandai Namco Games) {2012.01.12} (¥6.280) - 81.896 / NEW

The same, basically.

[Scum]

Vita needs a title worth everyone's time and money soon, or else...
Sony should just get Polyphony Digital the fuck away from Gran Turismo and get them to make something for the Vita.

[Mato]

How well is FFXIII-2 doing compared to FFXII-2? Those numbers look underwhelming.

[confuziz]

How well is FFXIII-2 doing compared to FFXII-2? Those numbers look underwhelming.

Don't even ask =P

[Road]

How well is FFXIII-2 doing compared to FFXII-2? Those numbers look underwhelming.

It has already outsold FFXII Revenant Wings.

It's doing horribly compared to X-2, which is the whole reason for the "bomba" claims.

[Sammy Samusu]

Monster Hunter held better than Mario Kart! <3

[Mpl90]

How well is FFXIII-2 doing compared to FFXII-2? Those numbers look underwhelming.

You don't want to see it, believe me.

[Spiegel]

Yep, Vita is selling worse than the PS3 did in January '07 and everything except Mario and MH is tanking on 3DS.

Japan is not doing great.

[Alrus]

Vita needs a title worth everyone's time and money soon, or else... Sony should just get Polyphony Digital the fuck away from Gran Turismo and get them to make something for the Vita.

What would have them make besides Gran Turismo? (Actually have they ever done any game that isn't Gran Turismo?)

[ace3skoot]

It was such a big mistake launching the vita later in America and giving the 3DS the holiday season in western territories, its by no means all doom and gloom for the vita as i think NA and europe will receive it well but without compelling and unique software on the horizon you sort of have to worry for its long term success. Lets hope sony really deliver at e3 on the big unique titles.

3DS is really establishing itself as a true successor to the DS. Software numbers are pretty dam good for this point in its life time.

[Dedication Through Light]

6K is enough to make the top 20, rather terrible week.

I didnt think Playstation Vita would go under 20K so soon.

One Piece fell off?

[Four_Chamber]

Vita is bombing. If its pulling these numbers in Japan, I can only imagine the level of failure in North America

[JosephManderley]

I just realised- the 3DS has already reached 1/3 of the LTD of Wii and over 1/2 of LTD of PS3! Pretty good for something that was considered Doomed not long ago!

[ElTopo]

The second week is usually pretty disappointing, though the 3DS is holding up pretty well. Not as well as e.g. the PSP in 2006, but still those sales are pretty solid.

[Mato]

With the recent news of all these companies going under and Japan sales being so low... We might as well just shut Neogaf down and go throw ourselves off a cliff.

[tzare]

What would have them make besides Gran Turismo? (Actually have they ever done any game that isn't Gran Turismo?)

Motor Toon GP Omega Boost. For mee Motor toon had great potential to be sony's MK instead of Modnation

[Kenka]

If this week sales sustain, 3DS will pass PS3 LTD on Week 47 of this year.

[Skiesofwonder]

I really think Spirit Camera will have strong legs. The uniqueness and AR use will help word of mouth grow and therefore gain some momentum during these slow months.

Also doesn't hurt that it has a budget price.

[Road]

It wouldn't have been any different if the Vita had released in Dec. in the West.

[electroplankton]

Yep, Vita is selling worse than the PS3 did in January '07 and everything except Mario and MH is tanking on 3DS. Japan is not doing great.

I don't think people were expecting big sales from Spirit Camera and Ace Combat. RE, Rhythm Thief and FF will do better next weeks.

[Lord Ghirahim]

Strong wagon legs.

[Kenka]

With the recent news of all these companies going under and Japan sales being so low... We might as well just shut Neogaf down and go throw ourselves off a cliff.

I feel like posting facepalms.

[Scum]

What would have them make besides Gran Turismo? (Actually have they ever done any game that isn't Gran Turismo?)

I remember a game called Omega Boost (?) that I believed was made by them. That could be a start. But, anything that turns them away from being the GT Company is better in my eyes. :-)

[GCX]

Yep, Vita is selling worse than the PS3 did in January '07 and everything except Mario and MH is tanking on 3DS.

I think Inazuma Eleven is doing fine for a game that was supposed to be a complete bomb.

[DCharlie]

I really think Spirit Camera will have strong legs

it's sold out in a ton of places, it'll be down to whether they fancy running another pressing off or not.

This is a fatal frame game, they are pretty well know for having low prints and subsequently high value in the second hand market so i see this one as being the same boat.

Damn good reason i went and got it on the day it came out.

for 3DS - it's going to be interesting to see how the "success" translates into the financials (or how it doesn't i guess)

[Sammy Samusu]

Yep, Vita is selling worse than the PS3 did in January '07 and everything except Mario and MH is tanking on 3DS. Japan is not doing great.

What were you expecting for Ace Combat and Spirit Camera?

Inazuma Eleven is doing just fine.

[Mpl90]

I don't think people were expecting big sales from Spirit Camera and Ace Combat. RE, Rhythm Thief and FF will do better next weeks.

I was expecting 25-30k from Shinrei Camera, but it could have legs for the reason Skiesofwonder said before. Poor Ace Combat. How was the marketing for it? I didn't see a good effort on that front.

At least, it doubles this


[WII] The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces (Bandai Namco) - 6.005 / 6.005 / 100,00% 16/10/08

XD

EDIT: Aaaaand Inazuma Eleven isn't doing bad, right now. And Gundam didn't do bad either.

Very curious about Rhythm Thief R this week.

[Carl]

Vita doomed then

[M3d10n]

I just realised- the 3DS has already reached 1/3 of the LTD of Wii and over 1/2 of LTD of PS3! Pretty good for something that was considered Doomed not long ago!

It's also interesting that there are more units capable of playing DSi-only games than standard DS games. I wonder if some devs will use this to avoid some DS piracy since DSi-mode flashcards are much less prolific.
