Uhm, thanks. I hope that Zelda will remain in the top 30 long enough to reach at least 500k.

Damn, my ski trip made me miss out on all of this. Sorry guys, I went to Snowshoe, EV for a couple of days but fear not as I am here now to tell you what's going on in Japan.

DSL 127,647
Wii 86,395
PSP 37,032
PS3 21,105
PS2 20,169
Xbox360 7,041
GBM 1,864
GBASP 1,498
GC 554
DS 123
GBA 94

DSL starting to climb back again. The PSP is not doing too shabby either. that's all I will say about handhelds because I don't care about them. Ok now.....

Wii is holding to an incredible number, an average of 375k-400k a month at the moment. That's unbelievable for Japan. These look more like a good PS2 month in NA in the first year after launch. However I believe it will drop slightly come next week, and eventually end up holding 65k-75k a weeek in about 2 weeks.

I was only 1k off of my 360 predictions. It looks like it's a week behind me but if it didn't do 5k-6k this week, it will surely do it next week. Unless it stabilizes higher than 4k-5k, but I doubt it. However, if it keeps it up it will pass the Xbox's LTD sooner than I expected. 180k to go roughly.

The PS3 is expected, just maybe not so low so soon. Judging by last week's numbers I don't know why everyone's so surprised. It will do these type of numbers(save for a game release(VF5?) spike) until a goood price drop comes around.

I believe all 3 consoles will drop next week.

PS3: 17k
360: 5k
Wii: 78k

 

[Shiggy]

I believe all 3 consoles will drop next week.

Do you think they will ship less Wii consoles than this week?

 

[donny2112]

multi-touch.

Awesome! I saw a video presentation from that annual Silicon Valley meeting where techie new ideas are bandied about demonstrating that same functionality (pinch/unpinch + a whole bunch of other uses). I'm glad that someone is actually using it in a consumer device. The "must use finger, not stylus" makes me wonder if it could actually be used on a DS2 in its current form, though.

Btw, I hate you all ; ; no one gave me Shining Force Neo numbers to compare to EXA.

We did get a top 500 for 2005 list from Famitsu, you know.

[Bungalow Bob]

Probably with Wii HD, they'll JUST be getting to 360 level visuals. Presumably Xbox 720 and PS4 will go beyond that, unless they stupidly interpret that the message is not "the price sucks" but high end gaming that is the problem.

There´s no way that Nintendo´s next console will only be as powerful as 360. It´ll presumably come out in 2011 - and by then a $250 system (which will almost certainly be the US launch price) will be significantly more powerful than a 360. Expect all games in 1080p and 60 fps.

Heh.

 

[farnham]

I feel that the Wii simply doesn't have enough compelling software in the pipeline to keep selling at this rate. Once people realize this fact and get over the novelty aspect of Wii, they will return to Sony and Playstation. PS3 has already sold fairly well in Japan despite the price and lack of a single good title geared for that region.

I dont get the Logic in your post


so the Wii will not sell because it has no games while the PS3 will sell although it has no games..??? please verify your theory

Who's going to want to play these types of games and non-games that we see on Wii a year or two down the line when games like MGS4, FF13, Killzone, Naughty Dog's game, WKS, DMC4, Assassin's Creed, Heavenly Sword, Gran Turismo 5 and so on, are released?

Hmm

MGS4 - 1 million + title in Japan
Killzone 2 - probably not even 500k
naughty dog game - looks like a below 500k title in japan.. gaijin game..
DMC 4 - 300k to 500k title in japan
Assassins Creed - irrelevant. gaijin game.. also multiplat
Heavenly sword - irrelevant. gaijin game


GT5 and FF13 look like 2008 titles


so from the games you listed only MGS4 looks like a potential million seller (ill add one more gundam mousou) in Japan.. if it does PS2 numbers which i doubt.. not even one game will hit 3 million units..


doesnt look that great if you consider how many DS games got over 1 million copies last year

The problem with that line of thinking is that right now a 250 dollar system is significantly more powerfull than wii... Nintendo could have released a much beefier system than the wii, including the controler with the same price or even less... Especially if they were willing to sell at a small loss for a little while.

Apparently by certain measures, the 360 is 10 or 15 times more powerful than wii and it's only about double the price... I assume nintendo could have done better.

 

[the thoroughbred]

So the next famitsu chart will have NSMB, Animal Crossing, and BT2 all hit the 4 million mark. And Mario Kart hitting 2 million maybe. MC has all of them already doing this, right?

 

[Bungalow Bob]

What about MGS4? That should do pretty well. And although the 360 will never reach one million units in Japan, sure that counts as "true next gen" gameplay?

It´s almost a certainty that the 360 will sell over one million.

I´ll say it again - compare the 360´s marketshare right now to the XBOX´s marketshare when it was at 300 000.

To only compare the 360´s first year to the XBOX´s first year is foolish, because it doesn´t take into account that the 360 launched early, while the original launched late (relative to the competition).

I wish they would have, but it's never been Nintendo's business philosophy, and looking at their financials...can't say I blame them.

2 million for Mario Kart! FFIII will pass a million soon.

Nintendo chose to release a small, energy efficient system. If they had chosen to release an XBOX-sized system, they could have released something more powerful at the same price (while still not taking a loss).

What I´m saying is that in 5 years a Wii-sized $250 system will be more powerful than a 360.

The only logical reason to expect the Wii´s successor to be just slightly more powerful than the Wii is if you expect the successor to be much smaller than the Wii.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

$50 is a lot of money. If you factor in the new burgeoning technology not included with previous gens, such as motion sensing or something, and additional functionality a net increase of $50 over inflation is not bad at all. If you always aim at the lowest common denominator with gaming, we'll go no where ever. So you have to have a good middle ground. PS3 is not that good middle ground. Neither is Wii.

This is crap. If you factor that into other technologies, then big screen TVs should all above $5000. I remember my mom buying our current 50+ inch sony in '93 for $7000. Now, you can find plenty of 50 inch plasmas for under 5 grand. Technology and manufacturing improves and I don't understand why gamers can't expect similar decreases in technology. PS3 is nothing but an arrogant play to shove technology down people's throat without the public demanding it.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

What does marketshare have to do with the 360 trending below the original XBOX? Not to mention the PS2 was nice and entrenched before the XBOX 1 ever got to Japan.

[kisakiproject]

DBZ WII, SSG, and Elebits seem to all be doign pretty decently. I expect DBZ WII to top 100,000 easily. Also given that 360 sold 4-7k each after core was released in nov. I expect that to be the norm for 2007 weekly sales besides huge release weeks. Given that. I expect 360 to top xbox LTD by the end of 2007(at the latest) despite the slower than xbox sales pre-BD. Personally if this gen is still a 4-5 year one I'de expect 360 to sell 700-800k in japan. If this gen is actually longer it might make 1 million+. Infact if 360 sells as much as it did in 2006 it will top xbox ltd. And so far its trending way ahead of 2006. Though who knows if holdiay 2007 with Lost Odessy will be as big as Holiday 2006 with BD. I expect LO to sell bigger due to a larger userbase but push less hardware.

 

[Bungalow Bob]

What does marketshare have to do with the 360 trending below the original XBOX? Not to mention the PS2 was nice and entrenched before the XBOX 1 ever got to Japan.

Next gen just started in Japan. That´s the other thing you have to take into account. The point is that the 360 will continue selling for many more years than the original XBOX.

Additionally, since worldwide the 360 will do much better than the XBOX did, it will get many more ports and exclusives that interest the Japanese. Therefore it will sell much better than the original in its second, third, forth, fifth and sixth years (both worldwide and in Japan).

Next Gen just starting is the reason that pointing to marketshare at all is ridiculous. Once the competitors take off the 360 will more than likely be marginalized. Hell, Microsoft has dropped from 100 percent of the next gen market to about 12 in not even 3 months.

Second, we were originally talking about Japan, so what does the rest of the world have to do with it?

This might come as a shock to you, so please be sure you´re seated before continueing....

There are Japanese games that are released outside of Japan, and apeal to both westerners and the Japanese.

And not only that! Some western games actually get released in Japan and do well!

Well now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

You expect too much. 720p is sure, but 1080p....I don't know.

 

[meltpotato]

...and take EM out of the PS3 list (it won't even break 50k imo).

if Armored Core has only done 69k, i'd say that is almost a foregone conclusion. i seriously don't think gundam musou is going to be bigger than 80-100k but i may be giving the japanese too much credit

Do me a favour, and point me in the direction of this magical game that will get Japan to embrace the 360 enough to push it over a million lifetime, when the biggest game for it to date couldn't even push 100,000 units?

Or,

show me the developer that will continue to risk wasting money on the 360 in Japan when there are two other systems that are sure to have most japanese-centric titles

Or,

Show me how the 360 will surpass the original XBOX when it couldn't do it when it had the market to itself unopposed for one year?

Guaranteed to hit a million? C'mon..

PS2 Grand Theft Auto San Andreas - up to 200.000 (for the week, not first day, if all goes well through the weekend)
NDS Sangokushi Taisen - sold out (high popularity, arcade very popular but shops didn't ask for many units, half the target already sold first day)
NDS Wish Room: Tenshi no Kioku - better start than Another Code (good word of mouth)
NDS Picross DS - going to exceed 50.000 slighty first week
PS2 Pachinko Fuyu no Sonata - 80.000 cleared (?)
360 Idolmaster - similar numbers to Seikaiju no Meikyuu last week (20k?)

At this point those are two pretty big assumptions.

They´re assumptions, though I wouldn´t call them big.

One thing that´s a fact though, is that the 360 lauched early, while the XBOX launched late. This is a huge advantage the 360 has relative to the XBOX.

EDIT: Are you sure it's a DS game Kurosaki?

Nintendo chose to release a small, energy efficient system. If they had chosen to release an XBOX-sized system, they could have released something more powerful at the same price (while still not taking a loss).

What I´m saying is that in 5 years a Wii-sized $250 system will be more powerful than a 360.

The only logical reason to expect the Wii´s successor to be just slightly more powerful than the Wii is if you expect the successor to be much smaller than the Wii.

No.. I expect wii's successor to be slightly more powerful than 360 (in the same way that wii is slightly more powerful than the current gen xbox)... Unless wii doesn't end up being as successful as we think it might be...

I think they could make a system like that in the 200 dollar range and still have the same kind of profit margins they are getting with wii right now.

I don't expect it to be a big jump over ps3/360 though and if wii is a big success i expect ms and sony's next systems to be much more modest than the ones they released this round in terms of hardware escalation.

Mmm, yes thats what they posted but it could be Piñata. The atsumare I remembered was Powerprokun Koushien but thats an old title.

I don't know which game is the star either ^^u

i think they will buld something as powerful as they can while fitting it in a small/heat efficient package and selling it at a sub 300 price. how much more powerful than the 360 depends on the tech of the next few years. They are starting to do wonderous things with cpu power consumption/heat efficiency. And that is going to be a big area of growth in the next few years. So it may be more powerful than you'd think.

i think super paper mario has a good chance of becoming a huge seller in japan, especially if nintendo adds super mario bros to the title.

I guess there's an outside chance, but I don't think the game will be able to overcome it's "secondary Mario" perception, especially with Galaxy coming this year as well. Probably a solid 500k+ seller though.

If i'm foolish for arguing it, what does that make you for thinking the exact opposite?

fixed so that it actually makes sense.

Judging by online prices, demand for the Wii seems to be waning a bit in Japan. I'm guessing it will average around 50k per week for the rest of the year.
