Damn, looks like DS might outsell PS2 overall by the end of this year.
You mean, it's a million away and the eventual 500K bomb in one week in December won't tip the scales? I'm sure the PS2 will do good in December but it's gonna get surpassed. Even with the DS slowdown.

That's what makes it remarkable. That a place where core games for core systems sell best, has Wii fit at #1.

Ye, i know its a retorical question, but what i wonder is what hes trying to prove/point out with the question.




Its back in stock now :)
That's actually my actual link earlier, nothing's changed.

I'm not sure if it's the same with Amazon Japan but when there's a link on the page where it says "Shipped and sold by _______", it means that Amazon itself soldout and have another third party show up on the product page, usually with a mark up.

Like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000S1DY2W/?tag=neogaf0e-20

No, only at a markup. The MSRP for Wii is 24,999 yen, Amazon are charging 29,800 right now.

Ok, maybe it was like that earlier, but it seems like its changed again. Now it says:

Price: ¥ 24,999 (Tax Included) & this item ships for FREE shipping more than 1500 yen . Details
Amazon Points: 1,249pt (5%) See details

Availability: In Stock. Ships from and sold by Amazon.co.jp. Gift-wrap available.

Ah, i see. Maybe it was something like that earlier, i dont remember, but now the site has changed since some hours ago (different layout or something now) and its back in stock atleast (check the quote over) :)

Its a better view of the market then say Famitsu top 10.
That's not saying much. Both of them mean jack shit, and anyone using them to try to make any meaningful predictions is grasping at the most tenuous of straws.

And Jack just left town.
 
So for the online software stuff, I started hitting the last generation of consoles. Tonight I did PS2 in 2000, using the same data sources I did for the static PS2 best seller lists I've made a few times over the last few months: the weekly Top 30 lists and the end-of-year Top 100 list. This only takes it through its 44th week on the market, so not as long as PS3 and Wii, but on the other hand it's just gone through most of the holidays. The next data chunk will probably be GCN/GBA/PS2 for 2001.

These numbers mean nothing. You can use them as vague indication. But it is an additional element that Wii Fit is going to be huge in japan. Much bigger then Galaxy. And Nintendo is commercialising it better.

Interesting. The performance of Resistance and Bladestorm is particulary interesting and show how hardcore the audience is.

Total ? Attach rate ?

Put J-GC Famitsu data bolded on the right:

PS3 titles (over 10k) until 11/11 - Media Create (PS3 1st year anniversary)

19位 34,000 FORMULA ONE CHAMPIONSHIP EDITION 33,849
20位 33,000 ENCHANT ARM 35,790
21位 32,000 Call of Duty 3 27,152
22位 31,000 Wangan Midnight 24,732
23位 30,000 Need for Speed Carbon 32,921
24位 30,000 Imabikisou 20,419
25位 28,000 Power Smash 3 18,324
26位 27,000 Sonic the Hedgehog 30,390
27位 23,000 Record of Agarest War N/A
28位 20,000 Winning Post 7 Maximum 2007 N/A
29位 19,000 Mahjong Fight Club: Zenkoku Taisenban 25,036
30位 16,000 Untold Legends Dark Kingdom 12,949
31位 14,000 Mist of Chaos 3,921
32位 14,000 Blazing Angels ~SQUADRONS OF WW II~ N/A

34位 12,000 SEGA GOLF CLUB 13,978
35位 11,000 NBA 07 7,853

So assuming that M-C data is real, Moor-Angol is doing a great job. The only real disparities between the J-GC data and this data that can't be chalked up to differences between Famitsu and Media-Create are at the very bottom, which is exactly what we'd expect--that games would crawl forward a little bit while they're not on the charts.

The Ghost Squad w/ Zapper Bundle is sold out at several of the stores in my town. It might be because people want the gun for B:UC or it might just be that SEGA never shipped that many to begin with. Anyone have shipment numbers on this game?

Yeah, because Wii Fit, Smash Bros Brawl, and DQ4 aren't gonna sell shit in Japan, right? What is Kimi Kiss? Dating sim?

I noticed Ghost Squad bundle went up during the weekend on amazon.jp, so probably you are right about people looking for a zapper.

This is DQ4r week, anyone knows how much is first shipment ? PS1 version sold around 600k, i'm very curious to see how much DS version will sell...

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

Are you taking into account the inevitable undershipment resulting in a sell-out and used sales undercutting new before it's restocked a couple weeks later?

OUCH!

Been a rough year...
 
You know, people have pondered why Namco would put a game like Ace Combat on the 360 given its sales performance in Japan, but in a little more than a week in the US it sold more than all but 7 PS3 games have sold lifetime in Japan. Its US sales will probably surpass all of them except the Musuo games and Minna No Golf by the end of the year.

3 of those 7 are Bandai Namco games, though. It did well for a 360 game, better than ACX on PSP anyway. (I think)

Resistance: FoM #6 PS3 game in Japan? I thought they didn't care for FPS?

It really was the best of the PS3 launch titles. And the early adopters are a lot more hardcore. FPS games sell well (ratio wise) on the 360 as well.

But yeah, the mainstream gamers don't seem to have warmed to FPS games much. Even Japanese produced ones bombed there.

I don't see how that could mystify anyone; they should be looking at global sales to determine what's worth making.

But what I don't understand are exclusive Japan-only 360 games. What's the point of that?

It also sold more in Japan than all but the top ten PS3 games. Of course, it would have done a little better in Japan on the PS3, but I doubt much better.

Guess we'll find out later.

Musou 5 is showing what happens to multiplatform games in Japan and expect Last Remnant to be more of the same.

The PS3 definitely got off to a really sucky start but things are slowing coming right.

What about Japan exclusive games by NBGI like Idolm@ster? Where there any words on whether they were able to recoup development costs with XBL micropayments/MS moneyhats?
