Minna no Golf was a million plus franchise back when it was the main attractive minigolf game on any system. Then the fanbase got more and more diluted as people found more convenient outlets for the same thing on PC and mobile. Now the franchise is finally on mobile.... about 6-7 years too late, and in Japanese only. I think it's lucky to not be completely laughed out of the market as it is.

I wonder if it will sell enough to cover the costs of making and posting that picture on their website.
The Extreme Vs. sub-franchise should be the best comparison, correct?

Correct me if I'm wrong. If that's the case...it seems quite on the low side (at least for retail)
As for Omega Labyrinth

Seems in line
Anything about Switch sales for last week?

That would be very low for Gundam Versus...danm
With seemingly negative feedbacks I don't see it having legs...
I guess Bamco deserved this not realizing their mistake after atrocious Gundam Extreme VS Force.
Tales team didn't learn anything. It's the departure of Baba that made their games better.
What do you mean?
The next game will be telling.

Oh don't worry, it's doing way better than expected by the professional and objective industry consultant ^_^
My guess is 24k, which I hope I am very wrong.

Waiting for the DQ guy to retire too.
Mine is based on some report here about lower distribution for this week compared to the previous one (was it a lottery with less units?)
The PS2, PSP and PS3 games that all sold big numbers were arcade game ports. From Extreme Vs. Force onwards, Bandai Namco decided to make home platform specific titles to protect the arcade market. The result has been two games that have failed to meet the expectations of fans coming from the finely tuned, content rich arcade experience.
EXF could be forgiven as a low budget (announcement to release within 3 months) game made by an inexperienced and poorly suited external studio (Lancarse). The PS4 game? Well, it had a long promotional cycle, was developed internally and was meant to be the first big piece of the console reboot Vs. I think it's safe to say Versus as a home brand is now damaged in Japan. Have to wonder what BN will do now.
What I'm saying is, good luck to Sega if they try to sell another Project Diva after Future Tone.
I'm waiting for the DQ composer to finally fucking die tbh.

He is proud that Japan is war criminal.
To be more specific he denied the existence of Comfort Women and even spent his own money for propaganda movement.
I think he's one of those guys that's pro burying Chinese people alive, but I could be misremembering.
Mobile in Japan has been surprisingly great for legacy franchises showing up a gazillion years late to the party.
That said, the primary spenders are in their 30s and 40s, so it fits with the demographic that would have played Hot Shots in its prime.
Yu-Gi-Oh similarly managed to succeed on its newest mobile reboot featuring the original cast, and even Digimon did really well when it first came out, but I'm guessing the game must have been terrible given how it tanked later.

Nintendo promised more shipments in July which most likely means the week Splatoon 2 launches, right?
Seems like it. We may see some more next week due to splatfest and ramp up to Splatoon 2 launch, though.
