Media Create Sales: Week 12, 2012 (Mar 19 - Mar 25)
 
Pro Baseball Spirits 2012 seems to be the first "system mover" for Vita, 2k isn't much of a bump, but it is something.

Nice to see Kid Icarus is still holding up there, it'll probably hit 200k next week.

Kingdom Hearts underperformed. But smaller userbase than DS (358/2) and PSP (BBS).

Monster hunter punching!

Yeah but unlike the argument that Monster Hunter has (building up a new userbase for MH4), this is without question a disappointment for S-E. They could have made this a PSP game instead, and made it in the same amount of time, and if it is entirely a userbase issue they would have sold as much as BbS.
 

Yoshichan

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
15./00. [PS3] Silent Hill HD Edition <ADV> (Konami) {2012.03.29} (¥4.980) - 7.971 / NEW
Even considering that it was a shitty port, I'm still glad it managed to reach top 20.
 

Mpl90

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
3DS rising to the stars. KH...not as we would have hoped.
At least, Hatsune Miku is having some legs this week too. MH3G is another thing, obviously.

Dat PS Vita sales jump.

Wasn't there a sidebet by someone about whether the Vita would go back beyond 12k before it dropped below... 8k, I think it was?

Or possibly just a general observation along those lines?


I'm assuming this wouldn't reflect the memory card addition to the 3G deal yet? I guess we'd have to assume that Pro Baseball Spirits gave a boost... much as I'd like to believe it was all down to LKS.

Edit: WSR crawls past 900k. I think 1M is possible this year, but it's going to be at one hell of a crawl.

They can't keep making PSP games forever.

They'd have to factor in Western sales though, if we're talking about what platform the game should be released on.
 

VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.

So you don't think if SE is unhappy they won't port it within 6 months?

Well, not that the original on Wii debuted so much better...I think it even had a lower debut.

Yes, KH didn't do as good as we were hoping, that's for sure. I don't know if consider it "disappointing" or "okaish". At least, this time, there will be really Western sales. XD

A whopping 2k increase for the Vita. Saved confirmed!

Kidding aside though, disappointing for KH, but a really nice increase for the 3DS. Absolutely destroying the Vita right now.

I expected more for KH3D. Must be the bad taste that 358/2 Days left in people's mouths. A shame because the game looks pretty good.
 

cw_sasuke

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
As expected userbase is a indeed a key factor for a series like Kingdom Hearts - hope it will at least have legs. Maybe the public is getting sick of all the spin-offs and games you have to play before KH3.
