Already in the bomba bins, it seems.

Pretty slow week overall. Terrible FW sales for all games, though not too surprising with those titles.

That's surprising.
 
So much for those YSO predictions!

Although I guess they were technically right, all sub 25k.

Poor week. The My Hero Academia sellthrough on Famitsu is pretty absymal. Expected more from Kenka Bancho too.
 
05./00. [PSV] Kenka Bancho Otome <ADV> (Spike Chunsoft) {2016.05.19} (¥5.980) - 8.534 / NEW

YSO predictions

01. [3DS] Kirby: Planet Robobot < 30k (average 25k)
02. [PS4] Uncharted 4: A Thief's End < 30k (average 25k)
03. [PSV] Kenka Bancho Otome < 30k (average 25k)
00. [PS4] Homefront: The Revolution < 25k (average 20k)
00. [3DS] Boku no Hero Academia: Battle for All < 20k (average 15k)

03./00. [3DS] Kenka Bancho 6: Soul & Blood <ADV> (Spike Chunsoft) {2015.01.15} (¥6.458) - 24.274 / NEW <45,07%>

WOW, YSO was WAY over what Kenka Bancho Otome ended up doing, and far lower than the 3DS game.

My Hero Academia also.

Wow big drops for all the hardware.

Also proof for all the people last week who said Uncharted had no effect on hardware.
 
That's pretty poor, indeed.

They should've simply ported KB6 and add a bit of extra content, would definitely have sold better than this otome thing.

I do wonder what (if anything) is next for the series. 3DS game under-performed; Vita spin-off has done pretty poorly. Perhaps Japan has had enough delinquent street brawling.

Kenka Banchou Otome is an otome visual novel spin-off aimed at girls. I think it's unfair to expect similar numbers to the mainline games.

WOW, YSO was WAY over what Kenka Bancho Otome ended up doing, and far lower than the 3DS game.

My Hero Academia also.
The games aren't really comparable. Otome's pretty much a straight VN about cute delinquent guys interacting with the main heroine. The audiences are totally different, and considering the genre, subject matter, and target demographics, YSO's prediction wasn't a very good one. Under 10k is pretty much the standard for otome games.
 
Guess Japan doesn't care for Doom.
There's a Japan Community Project released this year for the original Doom, a set of polished maps you can play for he original Doom. It has taken several years to put together because the Japanese Doom community is so small and it's getting smaller every year

I do wonder what (if anything) is next for the series. 3DS game under-performed; Vita spin-off has done pretty poorly. Perhaps Japan has had enough delinquent street brawling.

I think Uppers will prove that last bit wrong. They just needed to put the proper Kenka Bancho on Vita.
 
84% drop in the Second week is bad, no contest For this.

We also talk about a west game, which usually has Great legs Here.

Uncharted was tuesday release though unlike majority of games in Japan (that are released at thursdays). More time to sell during first week = higher drop during second week.

Nintendo doesn't want to produce more WiiUs that they currently do so I think we should change the shortage mindset to simply acknowledge that they don't care.
 
DQMJ3 has settled in the Caravan Heart tier of sales. I wonder what next they can do to get the series back to the million selling machine.
