Very good week.
I expected a way bigger drop.

Not a bad week for PS4, Vita, Wii U, and DAMN, 3DS up YOY? That's a bit surprised...

For MC there're still around 200k copies unsold. For Famitsu the shipment will be sold without pricecuts.
 
Nice hw and sw numbers overall.

MHX is astonishing, and also Monster Strike held better than expected.

Alchemist is apparently another niche publishers successfully developing for 3DS.

Damn sales holding pretty well after holidays, ps4 is showing some momentum.

Playstation 4 year in Japan should be pretty good.

Makes me wonder what Capcom's take on MHX sales is. If they were using it to try out ideas for MHV before committing to them in the main series, it must have sold more than they expected.

I wonder if they'll fold MHX combat stances into MHV, or keep it as a seperate revenue stream with a possible MHX2, that might give them more options in future? Either seems possible.

Well, they expected to ship 2.5m before March 2016 - these sales are definitely higher than expected.

Its finally happened PS4 has officially (at least according to Media Create) overtaken the PS3. In week 99 of its existence, the PS4 is at 2,337,636 while the PS3 was at 2,323,926.

For some reason I was under the impression the PS4 was performing worse than the PS3. Christ, the PS3 must have had a horrific start in Japan! Kind of impressive that it went on to be quite successful.

Famitsu

PS4 : +54k
PSV : +30k
WiiU : +25k
3DS : -100k


XB1 : 379 (week 1) + 145 (week 2) = 38,286 :D

I wonder how 2DS launching at the end of next month around $80 with the original pokemon game bundles, will effect the projection of 3DS this year.

PS3 began selling after Slim model in 2009. Installed base before Slim was at 3.27m

I wonder why it bombed so hard, even by Wii U standards.


Neither the SMT, the FE or general JRPG fanbases are on the Wii U.

It basically released for a nonexistent audience.

It also doesn't really appeal to either the FE or SMT fanbases, since the existing elements tied to them are so distorted and overshadowed by the idol industry focus. Xenoblade X sold better than it, after all.

From what I heard, the game is also neither for the general SMT or FE audience.
It also doesn't really appeal to either the FE or SMT fanbases, since the existing elements tied to them are so distorted and overshadowed by the idol industry focus. Xenoblade X sold better than it, after all.
That audience is somewhere else as well lol
Nintendo audience don't want Vita games.
Now that's just rude

PC players love moe moe games too!
