It's priced waaaaaaaaaaay too high. A plastic shell + tech demo for $20 was asking enough, a plastic shell that a lot of "shooter" fans on the system already have + tech demo for 4000 yen is bordering on completely unreasonable.Mithos Yggdrasill said:Link's Crowwbow Training is a typical game that will sell in the long term. About the rest, I agree.
Stumpokapow said:I'm not sure Link's Crossbow Training is an "ouch".
If the game is bundle-only (I have no idea if it is), then sales patterns should mirror accessories which would suggest a higher turnover time / larger restock period. An accessory being widely sold out like the Wii Wheel currently is is pretty exceptional.
On the other hand, if it's game only then it's a little bomba. I wouldn't count chickens before they hatch after the Sonic and Mario Wii sales explosion starting from a dismal day, but the "ouch" would definitely be justified then.

The disconnect you seem to place between "hardcore gaming" and "handheld gaming" doesn't really exist.DC R1D3R said:Listen, I love my handheld gaming and the Wii is fun an all but seriously, WTF is up with Japanese hardcore gaming?!?
I really thought the PS3 would have picked up a bit by now but jeez. Hopefully MGS4 will rectify the situation somewhat otherwise, it's looking pretty sticky out there.
Kurosaki Ichigo said:Emblem of Gundam just at 20% sell through is horrible but the 10% for Famista Wii is quite worse. It did quite good on DS yet on Wii meec, and that makes 2 out of 3 bombs for the Namco Family series on Wii.
The slim redesign really caught on, they've been rolling out new colours at appropriate times to keep momentum, and Monster Hunter Portable Second G is bigger than sushi at the moment.bachikarn said:So I haven't been to a Media Create thread in a while. Is there any specific reason why PSP started to kick ass? Are the Wii/NDS supply constrained, or does everyone just want a PSP now?

Well they didn't have that many system sellers on PS2 to begin with. I think we all agree that Sony can't drive hardware sales all alone. PS3 gets the heavy hitters but lacks a steady flow of software and I guess that won't ever change - I think it's inherent to the choices made with the plattform.Jonnyram said:There hasn't been a single SCEJ game released for PS3 this year - the company themselves are letting the system die.

It did provide a bump since the sales did not go down as fast as they probably would have without its release. Just like with VC. PS3 probably would have went down even further than last week. Remember that it's a very slow sales period. With golden week we'll see sales go up again.Gaborn said:More curious is the fact that MKWii hasn't provided a significantly measurable bump to Wii sales despite being very strong selling.
What about changing the Wii color to yellow?PantherLotus said:...but you quoted the Market Share chart, which hasn't changed visually since March 2007...

Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony have all really been going out of their way in Korea this gen it seems. Nintendo's "2nd party" deal with Nexon for Maple Story DS (co-developed in SK/JP, being published by Nintendo) is pretty huge in itself. And then there's the deal for Mabinogi 360 too.Fafalada said:The last I heard Nintendo had it shipped over 1M, which presumably makes it fastest selling console here(previous being PSP or maybe PS2). It's also been the most marketed piece of gaming hw ever in this country (we'll see if they treat Wii the same way) - and the first one with actual TV ads.
That said, I heard mentions that this generation of consoles has been doing noticeably better than last one (HD consoles especially).
I thought it could be because of the no whining rule. Or backseat modding. Could be that, though.Souldriver said:I guess it's because of his ongoing love affair with Amir0x? Why don't these two just get a room.

Man, was he on a roll today... I hope he comes back though. I'm still waiting for Borys
Maybe. But I like GAF's banning policy.Forgotten Ancient said:You are waiting at the wrong forum ...
The-Switcher said:Seems like Sony should just phase out the PS3 and PS2 altogether and just focus on the PSP in Japan.
Souldriver said:I still think, that one day, sales will pick up. I think the PS3 won't have the typical "failed console" lifecycle with just 5k sales week over week till next gen. In a way, it'll be a bit like the PSP I think (but worse).
RJT said:Maybe. But I like GAF's banning policy.
Even though Borys and Pantherlotus are cool, I can understand their banning...

Ah ok, like that, thanks for the answer My previous comment wasnt too serious though, hence the "", but if that is what you ment i withdraw that comment, sorry.donny2112 said:Your comparison was meant to show the silliness of comparing Wii Fit to PS3 (which is something I agree with).
From mio's comments when posting his chart, it seems that he actually wanted to compare Wii Fit to MHP2G, since they had a similar LTD. No underlying commentary on the merits of comparing Wii Fit (or the Wii Board) to the PS3, and, therefore, no similar reply on his chart.
