Both Wii U and PS4 are increase... Was expect with PS4, but not with Wii U.

Dat Pre-MGS bump for PS4

Also Splatoon overtakes SSB and is within 45K of MK8, hang in there Splatoon - SMM is coming.

That's a pretty good launch for a DQ port
 

RurouniZel

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Splatoon at 600k now, nice work.

I was expecting just under 500k for DQVIII, so being near 600k is a pleasant surprise.
 
Nice hw 3DS bump - big releases can still drive hw sales apparently (probably people switching to New 3DS XL).

DQVIII sold greatly.

Also:

Roughly 5-6 weeks until the PS4 passes the WiiU launch aligned, and ~18-20 or so weeks until it does the same to PS3. Kinda crazy how much it has come back from its disastrous start
 

Mpl90

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
If it did 20k for Famitsu as well, Splatoon is over 700,000 copies sold according to the other tracker.

EDIT: Yep, 21,637. According to Famitsu, the game's now at 707,525 (retail + digital)

It is.

After the big chunk of games that came out earlier in the year, people were expecting less than 10K a week till MGSV but it's done well relatively.

Wait? Wasn't it just a beta for Dragons Dogma? If it isn't is it totally IP locked on all platforms?

Second, just me or is the sales of the DQ remakes steadily shrinking? :( Yes I know everything is shrinking but still.

But man Splatoon. good for them :)

It's no longer beta. That game is a F2P MMO anyway. And yes, it has IP lock. Pretty sure the DL are around 700k for both PC & PS

Those are ridiculous holds for both Youkai Watch and Splatoon.

Dragon Quest VIII's numbers are a little underwhelming, but it's still one of the biggest launches of the year.
 
Great numbers for DQVIII, better than expected actually. It's not really on par with other DQ remakes, but it comes after the mobile version and is the first DQ remake that is closer to a (great) port rather than a true remake.

DQVII sold on par with DQIV and DQV on DS. DQVI sold best. DQVIII is a remake but technically is nothing new - even though there are a lot of great additions. Also, DQVIII was way less popular than DQVII.

what are PS4 owners playing? it haz no gaemz!!

Good performance from Dragon's Dogma and Until Dawn too (which I had no expectations for).

And another Japanese game with PS4>PS3.

We've had Heavensward, now Dragon's Dogma, next up MGS V.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
For reference (even if incomplete), Dragon Quest VIII on Android sits between 100,000 and 500,000 downloads. Thus, the 3DS version outsold the Android mobile release already.

They also did a mobile port of VIII recently as well.

Yep, hope this became usual and not only with western games.
"Good" difference between PS4-PS3 Dragon's Dogma.
 
29./21. [3DS] Style Savvy 3: Kira Kira Coord <ETC> (Nintendo) {2015.04.16} (¥5.076) - 1.826 / 190.427 <80-100%> (-9%)

Tragic, thank god it's coming to Europe.

Releasing that random expansion pack was a bad idea.

Everything except the PS3 has sold more this week than Xbox One has sold all year. Why bother, MS?
