Jesus at the 3DS bump.
You'd think anyone interested in Animal Crossing would already have a 3DS.
Probably in part due to the fact the New 3DS is the easier way to read the Amiibo for the game.

Bad start for Ray Gigant. Did it review poorly?

Well, maybe no software is harsh. No software in top 10.

Ah I see.
But I don't think Splatoon is similar to RE games. RE imo are still mainly single player experiences. I would compare RE to something like The Last Of Us. There's online, but it's not why people buy the games for. The MP mode isn't the attraction. Isn't RE Online mode more co-op focused than competitive? I have all RE games, but never bothered to play online.
isn't that the weird f2p animal crossing that's just a home furniture sim? damn japan, you have AC fever and i didn't even know it. I mean i knew it sold well but i didn't think an offshoot would kill like this
I wouldn't be so sure.
Man it's insane just how consistently dominate Nintendo's handhelds have been in Japan since the original DS.
GG Nintendo.
And the Trilion drop too. I thought the feedback was positive for both?

When will Splatoon die?
The most impressive item on that list continues to be the PS4, I mean look at it.
Didn't follow console numbers at that point but I should have figured.You mean since original Gameboy? Even GBA had about the same pace as PS2 in japan but it just died earlier as Nintendo released DS.
I gotta say, for almost no software, PS4 is still staying afloat.
Well, maybe no software is harsh. No software in top 10.
Gives me hope that PS4 isn't dead yet in Japan. They are just waiting. Really hope SE, Sony, Atlus, etc. going fucking all out for TGS.
Not sure about PC, but in total the PS3 and PS4 releases for FFXIV should be lower than 400K.I don't really follow it at all but they're over 4 million subs, aren't they?
Yes. Doing last year's WiiU levels is very impressive. Especially considering that PS4 has much more games at this point.
/s
Yokai maybe?Yep, Splatoon's up. I havn't read MC threads closely in a while but when was the last time a game showed that much legs?
lets face it, consoles are dead in japan. ps4 selling that much is pretty impressive with no games in the top 20
Software sales weren't as strong though ;-)You mean since original Gameboy? Even GBA had about the same pace as PS2 in japan but it just died earlier as Nintendo released DS.

Nothing stops the Splatoon train in Japan (and in France), that's damn good.
Pretty much. Surprised PS4 isn't doing worse there at the moment. No main stream interest and no (significant) game library for the Japanese audience. Still feels weird as fuck saying that about a PlayStation console.lets face it, consoles are dead in japan. ps4 selling that much is pretty impressive with no games in the top 10

So why are people so weirded out that Ray Gigant bombed? I've never heard about it, but looking at the screenshots it seems pretty low on Otaku content, and considering it's on Vita, shouldn't it be expected to bomb?

I'd agree. That seems to be the main issue from an outside perspective.they are extremely difficult to please, other then final fantasy and dragon quest on consoles, what's gonna move consoles in japan, splatoon is a huge suprise for me, you just never know which console game will be a success in japan, i mean holy shit those batman and withcer 3 sales are pretty horrible for such big games on a new nextgen console.
How big were Dark Souls 1 and 2 in Japan?I believe the Bloodborne bundle is being advertised a lot if I'm not mistaken.
PS4 selling really great.
The point is that while GBA was selling very well hardware-wise the software sales volume was noticeably lower than PS2.Well even in Japan home consoles tended to have higher attach rates than handhelds (at least in the past). Isnt the PS1 still the overall software king in Japan?
Nintendo thinking to themselves "maybe we should have gotten into the shooter market earlier..."
You're right in that.Looking at fire emblem sales it seems like it didn't really grow the franchise much from the last game.
So it's not really that horrible.And that's a non-main, spin-off Animal Crossing title. Holy shit, the money flowing.
