Was this the week of the LR bundle.

Pokemon is going to catch monster hunter this year.

You mean the Katamari/AC6 bundle. LR is out next week.

OMG! Valkyrie Profile DS sold more than 112k! I'm glad it's doing much better than SH. Keep those legs!

Ps. can this link be trusted?

[Psychotext]

Why would the 360 sell 12k this week? Is there something new out for it?

 

[RpgN]

Why would the 360 sell 12k this week? Is there something new out for it?

Probably in preparation for the last remnant game that comes out next week. The xbox 360 saw a similar jump before TOV arrived.

 

[Jonnyram]

Katamari/AC6 value pack.

 

[Psychotext]

Katamari/AC6 value pack.

Ahh... I thought that was next week.

 

[jesusraz]

Good to see VPDS holding on like that, but I would have thought it would have reached a higher sell-through rate by now. Hopefully it can hang on, get another shipment and at least reach 250,000...

No.8 is Nintendo's pedometer title, by the way.

 

[SovanJedi]

I can honestly see Rhythm Tengoku Gold pulling an Animal Crossing DS on us.

 

[Jonnyram]

Well Famitsu charts are out and the positions are slightly different to the earlier leak (Wii Music at 10, Seikatsu Rhythm not in the top 10), so the leak could be Media Create or Dengeki

VPDS had two days of sales last week iirc. That's why it has had a better than normal second week.

I think 200k would be a more realistic prediction

I noticed that RTG didn't match to the previous weeks totals for Famitsu. It does line up with the total for MC though - could be that. Not sure what it's at on Dengeki.

 

[Kujo]

DSL 8,381

What is happening with the DSL? I was under the impression both would continue to sell alongside one another, but it seems like it might not be possible with these sales.

 

[Jonnyram]

I wonder if Nintendo has reduced the supplies to make people buy DSi instead.

 

[Gamecocks625]

Supposedly, no one in Japan was interested in the DSi and were content with the DS Lite. Of course, we know how things turn out once that shiny new toy appears on the shelf. :lol

I'm an idiot. It says Media Create on the first line of the blog entry!

 

[Spiegel]

DS had a huge drop. Is supply constrained?

 

[Stumpokapow]

DS had a huge drop. Is supply constrained?

The DSi? Yes. They shipped ~200k week one and ~100k week two. Sales for the two weeks account for ~270-280k, so taking into account rounding issues and the fact that even a sold out product still has 2-5% availability, yes. It's sold out.

 

[batbeg]

Great news on VPDS, I think Also not too shabby on the LBP sales, either.

Do you know the difference between Enterbrain and Media Create?

 

[Paracelsus]

Do you know the difference between Enterbrain and Media Create?

I'm not quite getting it, but how on earth are Enterbrain and M-C dropping the same day? ._.

 

[Elios83]

Do you know the difference between Enterbrain and Media Create?

Media Create numbers are not released on wednesday.
Their site has not been updated yet:

I thought your numbers were supposedly the Enterbrain/Famistu numbers and in that case they're not legit.

No, the blog says specifically that they are Media Create. I posted that earlier.

 

[Rolf NB]

Sounds like Little Big Planet to me.

That seems weird because MC numbers are never leaked afaik, they could be early but they get posted on their official website as soon as available.

i saw only this

1 Kirby Super Star Ultra 260k
2 Rhythm Heaven Gold
3 Wagamama Fashion Girls Mode 35k

no hardware numbers there

Blind monkeys throwing darts at a wall, etc., but still ...

See toypop's previous post about Gears 2. Also, the 360 bundle came out this week. >10K for 360 is pretty certain. PS3 should still beat it, though.

DS - 120K
PSP - 45K
WII - 23K
PS3 - 20K
360 - 13K
PS2 - 7K

DSi 104,897 (113K Total)
PSP 43,726
Wii 24,726
PS3 18,354
X360 12,759
DSL 8,381
PS2 5,743

:lol

They have been, but 1) not in a while and 2) not this precisely.

Thanks for pointing that out...

famitsu is out?

 

[schuelma]

So no Famitsu numbers other than the top 10?

 

[Rolf NB]

Thanks for pointing that out...

No problem.

 

[-Kh-]

Well, Famitsu info today has been really scarce

 

[C.T.]

No problem.

Are you being sarcastic? Its not like I didn't now. (people have problems catching sarcasm on internet)

 

[Rolf NB]

It's not like it was witty or funny. If it was intended as a joke, you should have made it clear somehow. Like "lol" or "hahahahahahahaha".

 

[Minsc]

Blind monkeys throwing darts at a wall, etc., but still ...

Pretty nice predictions, you averaged around 1.5K off except for the DS, which I think was surprisingly low due to so few DSL's selling.

PS3 GTAIV held on a bit better than I imagined too.

You don't need to be witty to make fun of engrish.

Kirby sold approx. two times more in its first week then any Kirby in the past, right?

 

[donny2112]

This probably makes me happier than I should be, but it's just so freaking nice to have it back.

[shykyoichi]

This week's hardware seems back from dreamworld.

 

[JoshuaJSlone]

Not quite. Three "modern" Kirby titles sold more than half of that number, doing 151-190K. Don't know about the pre-GBA ones.

 

[Shiggy]

Now bring back Kirby for Wii Nintendo!

I think it's still slated for 2009.
