PAL Charts - Week 12, 2015

- Start date
The Type-0 HD split doesn't surprise me one bit, I'm pretty sure Square Enix (just like a lot of other devs/pubs) didn't expect the roles to be reversed this gen, hence the multiplatform releases of their big titles.
People should expect FFXV to pull up a similar platform split percentage, or even more in favor of the PS4 version.
Really interested to see how SE handles this situation, will they change their platform strategy for their RPG's? Like I said in another thread: as long as they keep their expectations in check then they won't get disappointed, also there's always the US where both console LTD's are much closer to each other than anywhere else.
I didn't expect that split for RER2 though, seems like the PS4 is still selling better over there?

I didn't even know Type-0 was also coming to xbone, no advertising whatsoever.
Wow look at that the PS3 and PS4 have higher overalls for a shooty bang game over XboxOne+360

This so much, if it underperforms it's a disaster for the franchise. Digital sales will the bulk of its sales though.
It's not enough for Square to rethink the platforms. The US is likely to have a closer split and at that point, they could be losing out on 6 figures of copies sold which will likely offset any costs of the port.
Even with the lead Sony has, there is no point in a 3rd party publisher making a game exclusive to any system unless they are paid to do so.
@FF Type0: Good numbers for a PSP-Remake, wonder how many of the 21k people bought it for the FFXV Demo though.
@BF Hardline: How does it compare to BF3/4? 90k Seems not that great for a BF.

Alright, that's plausible situation. So fair enough then.
That's why I said that SE needs to have realistic expectations when releasing a JRPG for the Xbox One. Of course it's better to release it on as many platforms as possible but they're a pretty strange/unpredictable company though. For example, there's still that FFX HD Remaster which is a PS4 exclusive and that's one of the reasons why I'm waiting to see what they will do next.
I really doubt Sony paid for a PS2 > PS3 remaster.

BF4 did close to the overall BF:H performance just on 360. 139k overall.
BF3 was 315k-525k Week 1
EDIT: Fairest comparison would be against Bad Company 2 since it was in March and was a spin-off, but looks like we didn't have numbers on it.

i think there is a joke somewhere in your post
What?
Yeah, I get that. I think any new project that isn't a remaster will go on both consoles no matter what, but unless things get really dire on the XB1, I don't think they'll concern themselves too much and just look at the overall number.

07 (NE) RESIDENT EVIL: REVELATIONS 2 (CAPCOM)
Revelations on 3DS debuted higher on a much smaller installed base (IIRC, around 15-18.000 units). So the problem wasn't the platform.

Or there was a better deal that got you the game earlier and cheaper through a method that isn't tracked on the chart.
Like I said earlier, we won't know the true story until Capcom do financial reports for this period.

Cool, then it might also mean that Capcom's strategy has been successful. A shame we don't have digital numbers.
Multiple skus, ukie press charts give % for top 4 skus of each game. Ukie own the copyright so there should be no issue from chart-track.
There was ever a doubt?
FFXIII was ~70% on PS3 on NPD (& I think UK too? can anyone confirm that?), despite the PS3 having less than half the install base at the time of release. Anybody that disputed JRPGs don't sell well on Xbox was either trolling you, or blind.
EDIT: Yeah that percentage wasn't the case in UK, but I'm pretty sure on NPD it sold twice as much on PS3 than X360, so relative to the userbase, it sold x4 times on PS3 than 360 in the US & x2 times on PS3 than X360 in the UK.

Are you forgetting that Revelations 2 is being sold in episodic content for a some time now?
Pennywise: everything should be on 3DS.
New Zealand ps4 sales joke :/
there was a guy here on neogaf who said that ps4 was piling up in New Zealand

The source is Metro.co.uk. I don't like to cite them because I don't want Chart-Track to go after them
Thanks a lot, man.

Holy shite.
Any approximates on the total combined? Each selling a few thousand units could explain such drastic difference, otherwise, ouch for xbox.
written above, 16k vs 4k
That's a minimum though. We know it sold between 20k total (GTA V's numbers) and 82k (BF:H selling above that for a new record)

Just as I expected, yet the best selling version is the worse version through no fault of the hardware. Capcom needs to gets it's priorities straight.

Yeah, that is some weird ass bumbling they pulled on the PS4 SKU. Looks like they are still patching it, so I will wait a little bit to pick it up. I got Type 0 and Bloodborne to hold me over until then^^
The performance of the ps4 version is worst than pc-xbone if I remember correctly from the DF comparison thread.
Not anymore. Sorry!

Capcom botched the PS4 version. Framerate was less than half that of Xbox1 and lower averages than the last gen SKUs. They patched it, but is still runs far worse than Xbox1 for no known reason.
Digital foundry said the patch helped, but only half way...
It was the same as last gen.
PS3 versions usually outsold the 360 versions of their games, yet the 360 versions ran and look better.
Seems old habits die hard with them.

also PS360 is hardly the same situation as PS4/XB1

*fixed*
Was referring to TOP's deflection attempts over that embarassing piece of warrioring last week that he is being mocked for in this thread.
Over the weekend, Argos, Tesco and Game started featuring it in bundles again alongside Battlefield. Expect it to raise higher next week.

I'm shocked that MP10 has performed better than MP9 and even the gamecube ones.
To be fair, it's not like they have much of a choice.

So, assuming PS4 has managed to maintain its 1.5 ratio, that would be 1.8 : 1.2 mil respectively.
If not, then probably around 1.7:1.3
If not, then probably around 1.7:1.3

I'm guessing 1.75m PS4, 1.25m X1.
