Media Create Sales 7/16 - 7/22

15. [NDS] Mario Kart DS (Nintendo)

jesus, did that game even when under the top 30?

Out of every DS game with legs, I find that one the most amazing. Its accumulated like 1 million+ sales quietly all in the 10-30 range.

Cheese, are you ever gonna use the exact numbers for the top 10 again? I know they get released a day or two later, but it would be nice to be able to see the exact numbers when they are released.

Here's the comparison you asked for.

Wii install base in Japan as of 7/15: 3,059,628

Well this is one of the most boring MC weeks for software in a long time. Hopefully hardware will be more exciting.

Oh, it definitely will. Wii has Gundam 0079 and Mario Party 8 are coming out, and Mario Party 8 could possibly top Minna no Golf 5. We also might see a MinnaBump in PS3 sales... although how big is the question.

EDIT: Dragon Quest Swords is apparently "sold out." I think this game can get to 600,000.
 
As usual, Nintendo dominance. Look, can I just ask one simple question? I would like honest answers.

Are Media Create numbers even interesting anymore? I mean, it's basically the samething everytime.

I could predict next weeks Media Create numbers if I wanted too.

It's always Wii and DS in the top 10.

Nothing new I guess. Go Nintendo! Go!
 
Wait till next week folks. That one will be very interesting, as Hot Shots and Mario Party battle it out. Let's see what happens to PS3 sales that week.

Next week is going to be a bad example of "Why NPD is boring".

EDIT: And by NPD I mean Media Create. :p

More like, it doesn't count because it's Dragon Quest. U slap that name on any game, no matter how bad, and it'll sell, on ANY system

I'm less interested in Minno no Golf and Mario Party than I am in seeing the sales for Subarashiki Kono Sekai.

Konami interfering, yet contributing to a possible Nintendo Top 22.

To those that are concerned about the interest in the MC Sales, I would say there is. The interest is to see how many spots Nintendo can get from top to bottom without interference from the competitors. Take away Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball and we possibly see Nintendo take 20 spots before the competition ranks in. I'm holding out for a Nintendo Top 25.

Exactly. And it will have even better sales on a system that is selling well.

I'll have to add an observation. Even though they get a lot of shit around here, Sega might be the third most successful publisher behind Nintendo and Square-Enix on the DS in Japan and maybe 3rd worldwide on the Wii.

Konami has bet on the wrong horse, and will continue to do so. Mark my knowledged words regarding the understanding of stubborn, know it all businessmen. I'm surprised they exist in Japan though, it is a distinctly American downfall usually.

So, is there any official betting going on for Golf/Party first week totals?


I could get in on that shit. Only thing of interest in these threads anymore, is betting on how many units big titles will sell.

I was being sarcastic...

Remakes don't count
SE doesn't count
3rd party games with Nintendo cameos don't count"
 
AniHawk said:
Hot Shots Golf 5.

Basically, if it does absolutely nothing for PS3 sales (and I mean doesn't get it to 30k-40k levels), the system is never coming back, ever, and the Playstation's brand name in Japan will be effectively meaningless.

Still too expensive. I'd be amazed even if it did 20k actually. But I'm sure it will sell when you can get it for ~39k.

I don't remember Konami doing bad business decisions. What's wrong with publishing an 100k+ seller on the PS2?

I guess he's talking more about MGS4. I don't think that's a mistake, though. It couldn't be ported to Wii if they wanted to.

What's the Wii install base compared to the Wii? The baseball game relatively did better, ratio-wise, on the Wii than what I expected.

as of last week ps2:wii (i'm pretty sure that's what you asked and i can't imagine another wii:wii joke ;)) was 6.74:1 if i calculate correctly...
so 3.19:1 sales of the game are great for the wii version, i think.

You'd think people coming into these threads just to say how boring they are (read: not what they want to see) would just stay out of them. But then I remember this is GAF and common sense is outside the realm of possibilities.

Indeed. Konami is basically in Sony's camp for the forseeable future. I don't think they are even planning anything big for the 360. Sony is making their movie and showering them with cellphones so I'm not really surprised.

Titi means penis in tagalog, which, coincidentally is what I am using in my username(titiklabingapat means letter fourteen).

You'd feel differently about this if your system was kicking ass in the charts.

Ok...I like betting...

I BET A 1 MONTH BAN THAT MP8 IS GOING TO OUTSELL MNG5 BY AT LEAST 50%.

There you go...

edit: Anyone else wanna bet? Sony fans I'm looking at you!!!

Wii software sales should be doing pretty well in the next couple of weeks. There's going to be continued success of Dragon Quest Swords, the huge release of Mario Party 8, a Gundam game, and Power Pro should continue to sell okay. Wii games should be very well represented in the top 50 after next week.

Go look at last weeks MC thread pages 11-20: <http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=172362&page=11> post number 531 and after that and come back and tell me MC numbers are boring. They can be every bit as entertaining and exciting as you yourself make them to be. Key point is: If you believe what you're saying, THEN you've got yourself a fun, 1,000+ replies MC thread, with jokes, and jpegs.... and possible ban.

MP8 isnt a bad game. I own it and I dont regret it seriously. For a party game or just a game with friends around, theres not much better.

I think Ps3 is doing good. What's your point? Fact is, the Media Create threads are pretty boring. Not even another system on the top 10. That's just, wow.

My system is doing pretty good I think.
