Media Create Sales: Week 6, 2012 (Feb 06 - Feb 12)

[Sammy Samusu]

3DS 94.667

The power of Love Plus.

[Kenka]

77k, lol ? Fail from Famitsu.

[Kandrick]

3DS UP

PSVITA DOWN

Damn.

01./00. [3DS] New Love Plus # <ETC> (Konami) {2012.02.14} (¥6.980) - 104.969 / NEW

Yes!

[slaughterking]

17./13. [3DS] Inazuma Eleven Go: Shine / Dark <RPG> (Level 5) {2011.12.15} (¥5.800) - 6.268 / 393.130 (-12%)

So close.

[Kazerei]

[Aostia]

OMG at 3ds HW numbers...

[Chris1964]

WTF happened with that graph from Nintendo.

[Saiyar]

Looks like the PS2 might begin outselling the DS soon. Has that happened before?

[slaughterking]

12./00. [3DS] Kyokugen Dasshutsu ADV: Zennin Shiboudesu <ADV> (Chunsoft) {2012.02.16} (¥6.090) - 9.307 / NEW 15./00. [PSV] Kyokugen Dasshutsu ADV: Zennin Shiboudesu <ADV> (Chunsoft) {2012.02.16} (¥6.090) - 6.538 / NEW

And that's that. Extremely unspectacular no matter how you look at it.

[Zeer0id]

Heh, Love Plus.

[liger05]

3DS is king

[NateDrake]

Huge week for 3DS a nearly 100k. Vita still dropping. Hope it stays above 10k next week.

[Kenka]

It seems also like legacy third-party games suffered more than Nintendo from the injection of new successful software.

edit for clarification:

Media Create Sales: Week 7, 2012 (Feb 13 - Feb 19) 04./04. [3DS] Mario Kart 7 <RCE> (Nintendo) {2011.12.01} (¥4.800) - 22.015 / 1.506.522 (-7%) 05./06. [3DS] Super Mario 3D Land <ACT> (Nintendo) {2011.11.03} (¥4.800) - 17.791 / 1.348.776 (-10%) 06./05. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G # <ACT> (Capcom) {2011.12.10} (¥5.800) - 17.490 / 1.249.833 (-18%) 08./03. [3DS] Resident Evil: Revelations <ADV> (Capcom) {2012.01.26} (¥5.990) - 15.666 / 231.907 (-40%) 17./13. [3DS] Inazuma Eleven Go: Shine / Dark <RPG> (Level 5) {2011.12.15} (¥5.800) - 6.268 / 393.130 (-12%)

or maybe in these zones the difference is due to statstical blur, meh.

[jman2050]

Pac Man returns

[Magicpaint]

Wow, Tekken really tanked.

[Cygnus X-1]

I've bet 100k for New Love Plus and I was right. Great spike for 3DS. I'm quite surprised actually.

After Soul Calibur V, Tekken now is tanking really hard. Fighting games haven't luck in Japan recently.

[nincompoop]

Tekken 3D: It's OVER NINE-THOUSAND!!!

[Effect]

Wow at that number for Tekken. Yikes. That series isn't suppose to be popular in Japan right? Even with that, is that extremely low for a debut for that series?

[hardcastlemccormick]

No surprises, just more of the same trends, eh?

[angelfly]

Good to see New Love Plus break 100k. Sad to see Vita dip lower than it did last week.

[Pureauthor]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good.

Also SMH at Vita.

[Thoraxes]

Why does the Vita keep losing sales :/

Surely there will be some kind of increase soon, right guys? Right?

Also dat Love Plus, 3DS sales bump, and Tekken bomba.

Also GPD sold more on the 3DS than PSV, though in this case it'll be good to check on the PSV digital sales (the ratings anyways, to see maybe some kind of number because they don't publish those).

I wonder about Theatrhythm sales only because there were reports of lower supplies, so I wonder if there's any truth to it.

[Grimmy]

And that's that. Extremely unspectacular no matter how you look at it.

Surprising the 3DS and the Vita versions are so close numbers-wise.

[TyRaNtM]

3DS's Pac-Man back!

[frankie_baby]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good. Also SMH at Vita.

Very good if the 70k shipment is true

[vareon]

Theatrhythm is low?

[angelfly]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good. Also SMH at Vita.

Shortages at many shop.

[Frillen]

A bigger bump for the 3DS than expected.

[JustAnotherOtaku]

Great numbers for Love Plus. Although I thought the Theatrhythm sales would be higher.

[slaughterking]

999 launched at 16,967 (Famitsu number).

GPD has a combined first week of 15,845 (Media Create). Add a few PSN sales and we have an almost identical opening.

[liger05]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good. Also SMH at Vita.

Didnt it sell through the stock which was out?

[electroplankton]

And that's that. Extremely unspectacular no matter how you look at it.

Not far from 999 debut, though.

[Gambit]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good.

As I've just learned it was supply-constrained. Considering the small shipment, it's very good. Also, I believe Square will make a killing with the DLC.

[Majine]

3DS Land.

[frankie_baby]

Surprising the 3DS and the Vita versions are so close numbers-wise.

Probably something to do with the 3ds having other games to buy

[mclem]

And that's that. Extremely unspectacular no matter how you look at it.

I have to say it's a bit less unspectacular for the PSV, I thought there'd be a little more of a gap than that.

[Skiesofwonder]

Is it safe to assume that Theatrhythm will have strong legs because of it being sold out everywhere? Anybody know if they already got a new shipment out to stores?

I really hope it does well, and would love for its success to lead to a Nintendo version. And of course a NA localization for this would be really appreciated, but I'm not to worried about that because I would be seriously surprised if it didn't make it over here.

[Kyoufu]

I hope Binary Domain breaks 100k. I can't wait to get it.

[zero_suit]

Vita.....

[ZenaxPure]

67K for Theathrithithml? Not too good.

Have to say I was expecting more from it as well, surprised at those numbers. Hope it does alright in the long run as I have a lot of interest in it personally as it's a type of game I've been wanting for years now.

Edit: Whoa so many posts explaining this popped up while I typed mine! I hope this supply strain stuff is the case, game looks great and I want it to do well.

[Dynopia]

360 below 1000! Wonder if it'll survive to the nextbox.

PSV getting very low as well :\

[Grimmy]

Probably something to do with the 3ds having other games to buy

And Vita has next to nothing else, LOL

PSV getting very low as well :\

Rest assured, we're nowhere near the nadir when it comes to Vita's numbers.

[iKeepPlaying]

Year of the PS2!!!

[Pureauthor]

If that 67K number is because of shortages it does not magically make the number good. What it does mean is that it has a good chance to let those numbers improve if they can get the second shipment out in a timely fashion.

So, has Nintendo has improved on their cart production methods from the last generation?

[frankie_baby]

Looks like the PS2 might begin outselling the DS soon. Has that happened before?

There isn't really any point to buying a ds these days, the games will play on the 3ds and the price is similar, whereas the ps2 has thousands of games that can only be played on it

[Cygnus X-1]

Very good if the 70k shipment is true

So low? Impressively wrong sales estimation from SE.

[StayDead]

Great numbers for Love Plus. Although I thought the Theatrhythm sales would be higher.

They only shipped 70k so I guess that's why.

Great showing from 3DS this week. Wow!

[kinggroin]

Those Vita numbers don't bold well for future eastern third party support...


And the system that DOES have it, isn't region free. Fuck console gaming.

[Nibel]

- Tekken tanked - Damn.
- 3DS HW numbers are crazy
- Vita HW numbers are even crazier
- Dating simulations still rock
- Dat three-headed 3DS software monster (3D Land, Mario Kart 7, MH3G)
- Binary Domain did very good
- Don't know what to think about Theatrhythm Final Fantasy
