Actually that would still be comparing 9 days of tracking to 11 days of tracking thus any such future comparison should also be entirely ignored until we can work out that whole time-space continuum kerfuffle

Oh, I didn't see this post before. Well that's really good news for the Dangan Ronpa series. Only if Zero Escape could get that love.
I also said in the top of page 16 that DanganRanpa is getting stock problems in a lot of shops (check the photos).
And Also GamesMaya Ranking:

That bunny thing in the second is creepy as hell.Same here. Maybe Zero Escape needs a mascot
I used the most recent post button, so I missed that as well. Thanks for the pics.
100ppp master race as well, so it was in the middle of the page.
Ooorrrr.......why not both? (With a strong emphasis on the latter reason being at fault).
There's not much more to say if 360 Bayo 1 outsells U Bayo 1+2...

Yes just like Mario Kart 8 sales show the Wii U is a good fit for many games.

Data retrieval time!
Famitsu FW/LTD (via Garaph):
Fatal Frame (PS2): 21,770 / 42,195
Fatal Frame 2 (PS2): 42,006 / 64,450
Fatal Frame 3 (PS2): 46,671 / 69,147
Fatal Frame 4 (Wii): 29,869 / 73,449
Fatal Frame 2 Wii Edition: 24,804 / 45,143 (this number is from japanltdranking who have a more up-to-date number)
Spirit Camera (3DS): 16,174 / 20,274
Fatal Frame Special Edition (Xbox): 2,481 / ...
If everything we've seen so far is showing FF5 opening higher than Bayo 2, maybe we could see the highest debut which would have to top FF3 and that's not that much higher than Bayo 2 in MC (38k).

The game got lost in faded hype. Easy as that. Should´ve been released a year ago.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
I'm personally expecting 45k for Fatal Frame V - hopefully the movie helps the title reach 100k but that might be too much to ask judging by previous entries.

When is the movie out anyway?

I don't know if it can beat FF3's opening, but I do actually expect it to end up outselling FF4.

It explains why FF5 isn't exactly a graphical wonder, I mean it looks good, but not really something PS360 can't do, maybe?
Actually if FF5 was made on a "budget" then it actually looks really nice all things considered. Not Shin'en good (I mean, come on, what IS? XD), but still good for a possible small budget game.

no wonder they did not bother booting Nintendo from publishing them, must be helpful to have a company funding it

Well yeah I'm sure with Nintendo's backing and the hardware being the Wii U, it's quite likely the budget for FF5 is notably higher than the previous iterations although maybe not crazily so
I mean the most advanced hardware the series has been on was the 3DS and most powerful was the Wii [Wii is more powerful than the OG Xbox right?] so the Wii U is a notable step in available resources and probably expectations.
I still think for being a title on a HD console it'll have a smaller budget than most other games though

Hm, well we at least know 70 copies were sold of Fatal Frame, yay. It's still about 1/2 of Hyrule on comgnet, so it's kind of harder to tell how well it'll do. I guess we'll see =).
Garaph's Famitu info for FF2 Wii seems out of date.
Fatal Frame II: Wii Edition 24,804 45,143 is what Japanltdrank has for that title.

Actually it says 24,804 / 45,143.
I'll add that.
Whoops, copied and pasted the wrong #. Also MH4U is already $30 on Amazon. Not sure what that'll do for sales (didn't do much for Layton v. AA apparently), but it's interesting at least.

I might have to edit my new3DS prediction to 500k after seeing that new commercial.

Now that Bayo 2 has 7 days of tracking sales should be 7 times the previous week since the previous week only had 1 day of tracking!
The power of Queen Kyari lol.
Same here. Maybe Zero Escape needs a mascot
They tried
Also
PSP Final Promise Story 57,023 / 88,814
They tried
That's not a mascot! It's creepier than Monokuma!
Really? I thought the design was 'too busy'. Monokuma and the original Zero were better.

Cross Thesis Paradox (or whatever it's called) really performed poorly. I don't the original did all that well either? I was surprised to see a sequel announced.
DanganRonpa and Sen no Kiseki 2 both seem to have done well though. I'm pleased. I enjoy DanganRonpa and I like Falcom (I'd like to say that I enjoy Legend of Heroes, but we don't get enough of them over here).
Thanks for that. I was desperately looking for that game but I couldn't figure out what its name would be in the database

Not a fan, but this looks cool, always nice to see more mature looking games on the 3DS.

Comgnet Launch Points x Famitsu
[Wii] Fatal Frame 2 - 45pt (24,804)
[WiiU] Fatal Frame 5 - 70pt (???)
I'm thinking 45k, but who knows!

Koei Tecmo revised their earning forecast upward due to good worldwide sales of Hyrule Warriors and PS4 versions of Warriors series (Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition, Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate, Samurai Warriors 4) on the video game side.

Must be western sales mainly since HW did mediocre and every PS4 Musou bombed in Japan.
If you're looking for maturity, I'm not sure Kenka Bancho is the series for you. I remember dressing up in a banana in one of those games.

They only published Hyrule Warriors in Japan, though. Nintendo are doing the western releases.
Maybe the PS4 musous were really cheap to port? *shrug*

I mean visually, third-parties usually go chibi crazy on Nintendo handhelds.
SMT is not chibi though.^_^
Persona Q does not count.T_T That is not SMT. Wkwkwwk
sörine;132138770 said:
Well Hyrule Warriors are already 100k-114k from the trackers (dunno if digital was counted) and still selling, and with their prediction of 150k (was that ltd?), I'm sure it was their better selling game in Japan. Dunno if KT is still concerned with worldwide numbers since HW is published by Nintendo outside of Japan.
This is possible. The PS4 Musous may have even sold more externally in Asia than at home in Japan given the miniscule sales there.
Oh KT cares. They already said they expect 1m ww for Zelda Musou and they frequently highlight games like Gundam Musou or One Piece Musou which they don't publish in any region.
Zelda Musou did pretty well for a Wii U game, and it was the best Musou debut this gen by a good bit, but in absolute terms I think it's quite low by historical Musou standards. I feel like the same sort of game would've done 200k+ on Wii or even Gamecube possibly in the first couple years. It also probably would've done a lot better on 3DS even if significantly cut back.
Regardless of who publishes the title in a territory, I imagine they still get royalties for the shared investment. They will probably make more per copy shipped in Japan because they are the publisher there, but that doesn't mean overseas sales are insignificant.

Since we're on the subject of paid royalties to publishers even when they themselves don't publish the game in those countries, with Bayonetta 2, do we think Sega is getting some royalty on every copy sold?
I would assume yes

Without knowing the contracts we really don't know, personally I'd guess if there are any royalty payments to Sega I'd assume they only kick in on sales above the profitability threshold
