Hmmmm.

Might be reading this wrong, but the blog seems to be speculating, or just messing around about the possibility about an HD version of the original Metal Gear.

He definetly mentions HD Metal Gear at the very least.

May just be talking about MGSV. But there was a rumor, long, long ago of the a MGS HD Collection.

wow, lot of big DQ8r advertisement posters in Shinjuku station

Yeah, there's that fake 3D thing, right? 4Gamer.net had an article about it yesterday.

Also... Wii U saved in Japan!!

Look... 3rd-party game... at retail! Unbelievable, right.


Yeah, well... talk about random. Nice cover, at least.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
I am rather...surprised at the current amount of 3rd party titles announced for Wii U in the past few weeks. I was just expecting Taiko, but nope, it's already 3 times my expectations. Splatoon is really having a positive effect overall! First, Taiko/Just Dance Yokai Watch/Silver Star 3-years-late port. Then, the world!/s

It's because the 3DS version did so well;-)

Wait a minute, what 3DS version. I remember Silver Star was going to release a 3DS game, but I think it was going to be different. And...how do you know that it sold that well to convince them to release it on Wii U, unless you're a bit joking of course :p

P.S. Do we have lists of 3DS announcements the month before TGS in 2012, 2013, 2014?

Dragon's Dogma Online seems to be pre ordering pretty well for a FTP game. Anyone know what the physical edition comes with, or if it's limited or something?

Also look like it will be the next PS4>PS3.

i think it's limited edition only. artbook, ost, ingame item code & early access code

yes, I just saw the picture on the right, the station was crowded as usual and I was in a hurry to come back home, so I didn't notice the entire thing

nice and original advertisement



also they are opening a special combini only dedicated to DQ products, it's near Akihabara, I read somewhere the news a couple of days ago (maybe gematsu)

The fact you didn't realise there was a 3DS version answers my question;-)

It wasn't the lowest selling 3DS game that week however.
 
Nice to see 3DS software and hardware sales going so well, also considering the fact that it is in its 5th year. Its lineup is so packed with important releases that it should keep slaying throughout the rest of the year.

Welcome back Pennywise. Hopefully we get more Splatoons and Minecraft-type evergreens on the other platforms as well :).

No real surprise here, though at least BX has better sellthrough ratio than UX if that 1st-day data is anything to go by.

I suppose the drop won't be that much, then.

YSO predictions

Week 34, 2015 (Aug 17 - Aug 23)
[3DS] Animal Crossing < 110k
[3DS] Yokai-Watch Busters < 60k

watching at YSO predictions for the "commong games" between week 24 and 25:

[3DS] Animal Crossing < 70k
[3DS] Yo-Kai Watch Busters < 40k

and considering that YSO gave this prediction for week 35:
[WIU] Splatoon < 30k

could we see Splatoon SO consistent this week to be around 40k?!

Super Robot Wars UX > Super Robot Wars BX

As expected by YSO predictions: they put it around 110k, while UX debuted with:
115.384 (MC numbers)
120.751 (Famitsu numbers)

Just a couple of questions: are YSO predictions "indipendent" or based on MC? Or Famitsu?
Are the "leaks" from the "blog" MC-based?

Still pretty consistent, imho, if confirmed.
 
I'm curious to see how 7th Dragon 2020-III wil perform on 3DS, because COMGnet preorders are quite good, and the game is still quite far away.

Splatoon was selling 30k+ units on a weekly basis before Obon as well, so it won't be surprising to see a milder drop and selling between 30k-40k again.

YSO predictions are based on Famitsu.

The leaks from the blog are based on Media Create.

Yep, but after an "holiday" week I'd expect somehow a bigger drop, plus the more we go ahead, the more it SHOULD decrease its effect :\

Thank you very much

3DS lineup is packed only with important releases. Medium and small titles are missing and this is the biggest 3DS problem since its launch.

It never had the support previous market leaders had. DS faced the same problem only after PSP's Monster Hunter revival.

Do you think it's because of mobile or that they went to PSP/Vita?
