Media Create Sales: Week 19, 2013 (May 06 - May 12)
 
Looks like the Japan is seeing a slow down across the board now. Week after week, the YoY comparisons are poor. And the new console isn't helping either...

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Horrible all around. Even 3DS numbers are pretty bad. Damn

Eh, I wouldn't call around 40k in the second week post-GW pretty bad, you know :D
Considering last week it did more than last year, despite a lower GW, there's probably a reason for this week's drop. Maybe anticipation for SMTIV (the bundle)?
 
Famitsu:


22./34. [WIU] Dragon Quest X: Rise of the Five Tribes Online # <RPG> (Square Enix) {2013.03.30} (¥6.980) - 2.061 / 64.981


place 34. is from last weeks Media Create.


why the boost?

The PS3 is still selling decent enough. A new final fantasy, metal gear and a gran turismo on ps4 should excite gamers again.

But all of these games will also be released on PS3. Even exclusive games of the same franchises didn't help Japanese sales of the PS3 much in the beginning; I don't see why the PS4 would benefit of it when these games aren't even exlusive to the next-gen console.

Oh well. All in all this is a week that's better off not being talked about, lol.

Famitsu:


22./34. [WIU] Dragon Quest X: Rise of the Five Tribes Online # <RPG> (Square Enix) {2013.03.30} (¥6.980) - 2.061 / 64.981


place 34. is from last weeks Media Create.


why the boost?

Did it get a boost or did sell dropped less than most games ?
EDIT : nvm didn't saw Game & Wario which sale is pretty much the same as last week only went to 28 from 29.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Shit all around. PSP wins the weekly bloodfeud.

Presumably all Japanese developers are crossing their fingers and hoping to fuck the PS4 does something to how things are currently, but even then there seems to be a 10 million hard cap on the standard gaming audience.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
Holy shit at those 3DS sales.. . Where is the MH4 release date capcom?

Bad week across the board.

Not looking good for anything on the market for the next couple of months. 3DS will tick along until Monster Hunter hits, Wii U will continue to drop until Pikmin 3 hits (although it might get a slight Luigi boost), Vita may keep stable but will likely continue to drop off.
