Argh, so close!

And looks the 3DS is doing just fine.
 
Welp, 2 million will have to wait for YW2 according to MC. Famitsu had it a bit lower last week but it might be able to make it there too.

MK8 and Wii U holding after last week (and the holiday) means there is some word of mouth going on.

Edit: I would like to see a comparison MK8 vs. Pikmin 3 now.

Youkai Watch is quickly closing in on Super Mario 3D Land and even New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Mario Kart 7 :O

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
It seems Yokai Watch is seriously helping 3DS now: it's been around 40,000 (over 40,000 for Famitsu) for some time now.

In relation to how it's been doing all year? Maybe. It's still going to end up signficantly down this year. At this point 3 million is looking out of the question.

well it definitely looks like the 3DS is nearing saturation but the software sales are more than solid

Solid jumps from Wii U and PS4. With the popular Xbox One system on the way as well, it looks like the next generation party is getting in full swing in Japan.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
It's kind of pathetic how even "beast mode" Wii U is still selling less than the PS3 was 7 years after launch.
Every system us selling less today than it would have 7 years ago, it's a different market - don't quite get your point. 3DS,Vita,WiiU,PS4 and Xbox One will all sell less than their predecessors in Japan.

Obligatory legs comment.

Though I think it should be indicated as -0%, since it still was a drop.

Yoshi's drop is quite soft, isn't it? It at least has a good chance of selling through its initial shipment, though I'd hope it could reach 500k ltd, because a drop of more than 50% over the predecessor is really sad :(.

@sasuke: He was not talking about the PS3 7 years ago, but the PS3 last year.
 
Those PS4 sales. Sheesh.

I dont understand how anyone could say that still?

Been this way for many, many weeks now.

2014 is a wash for Japan and the PS4. There might be some spikes here and there. 2015 is going to be much better though as the games slowly begin to trickle in. Late 2015 into 2016 is the best bet for the system to begin making headway in Japan. Until then, expect 5-9K to be the average each week.

0% change for Mario Kart is the defintiion of a "nice hold."

Glad that Wii U is stable and above 9k.

Then again, the Famitsu tracker probably shows a different story.
 
With only 1 Japanese game is releasing on PS4 in the next 4 months that isn't a late port and is a Compile Heart game, of course if can. :(

Here's the release schedule:


08/13 Japan Hohokum
08/21 Japan Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition
Nikoli no Puzzle 4: Nurikabe
The Last of Us Remastered
08/28 Japan Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark
09/04 Japan Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare

11/13 Japan Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (Subtitled Edition)

Don;t know why you are ignoring Western games when a lot of those will likely outsell that compile heart game.

Well next chart is going to be interesting with Hyrule Warriors being released. I hope it does really well.

Nintendo has been pushing it pretty hard.

Damn, already...

Youkai Watch is quickly closing in on Super Mario 3D Land and even New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Mario Kart 7 :O

They won't be able to resist much longer, I tell you.

YW2 really got the potential to reach 3m total, and to reach 3m before the end of the year, it needs to sell at least 48k/week until week 52. It will all depends on the holiday sales, I guess. Safer bet would be Q1 2015.
 
What are the comg numbers for Hyrule Warriors. I know they don't mean that much but they usually predict a big flop for a game like that.
Yes. 3DS totally isn't in its 4th year already, and the 3rd one without a new model.

Ok?
