I really hope that Stories does well in the west, it's a really good game. Hopefully will motivate Capcom to fund a sequel, just like the same thing happened for Project X Zone.

I doubt it'll be much more successful in the west, unfortunately.

***

About possible 3DS announcements Nintendo could still have, only one I have any "faith" in is Color Splash 3DS, mainly because it's a dual-screen game.

I really don't think there's a new Donkey Kong Country game in the works on 3DS, I doubt Retro Studios isn't 100% on Switch right now ;)

Road to TGS™

Notes:
- The list will include all games announced from August 1st until the end of TGS, except mobile will be focused on games from traditional publishers, or really notable non-traditional publisher games.
- The list will include the title, genre, publisher, developer (if known), release window (if known), and any pertinent notes.
- I won't be including things until they at least have one platform announced. Similarly, games announced prior to this window with no platforms count as a new announcement. Beyond that, I'm being a bit more generous with inclusions instead of waiting until the full details show up unless we just clearly don't know enough to list it.
- This will be the Switch's first Road to TGS.

Dengeki: The Great Ace Attorney 2 sold through 55 percent of its initial shipment:

　新作では、人気法廷バトル『大逆転裁判』シリーズの最新作である3DS用ソフト『大逆転裁判2 ‐成歩堂龍ノ介の覺悟‐』が4位に顔を並べたが、限定版も含んだ販売実績は推定6.8万本（店頭消化率55％前後）と、前作（発売週13.9万本/累計19.3万本）に比べて実数、消化率ともに伸び悩んだ。

Releasing Advance Wars on 3DS next year would be the most cruel thing Nintendo can do to the franchise and its fans.
Click to expand...

No. Using the advance wars COs as characters in a match-3 mobile game with unit sprites instead of colored gems without making an attempt to revive the strategy games would be.


An entry exclusive to hardware I'd like to move on from would be a nice treat even if it tanked and the series died for good.

There is virtually no chance that Nintendo is going to change the name of Famicom Wars and release a new one on 3DS next year. Intelligent Systems have their hands full with the new Fire Emblem for Switch, and the series has been pretty much dead here for a decade.

Bic Camera got 200 units for lotteries today, some 200 or so yesterday too.

Softmap had 100.

Busters 2 is coming out this winter.

Blazblue is on there twice.

The Switch already has 8 more titles announced in this timeframe than some were expecting.

Is that really the official spelling? The word is spelled "sœur". "Soeur" is lazy-people spelling. You'd think they'd get it right.

There were some 2000 people making lines for Switches on Akihabara today, on multiple stores.

Judging from the little spreadsheet Chris whipped up in the older thread, Akihabara got an extra 200+ over Week 30&31 shipment.

Last week all Bic Cameras chain stores got 2.050 units.
We still have to count all the stores for this week but we have 1.800 units so far (it seems it will be higher when we add the rest).

100 sales is really just statistical noise. It's such a low number that it's probably impossible to track exactly how much is sold week to week. Could be 5, could be 150.

I'm hopeful they'll do a DQ1-3 Switch retail release made by M2, like the Seiken Densetsu collection. The 3DS/PS4 mobile ports are awful (I bought one -- big mistake).
Click to expand...
The gameplay improvements are great, even if they come from the Game Boy Color version, but the graphics don't look very nice.

I really doubt they'll see any kind of rerelease, SE seems really avert to that, no games on Virtual Console, no games on the Mini consoles, just the Wii compilation. I wouldn't hold my breath.

Also
you didn't need to buy them to play them on PS4

surprised they didn't to a trilogy or bundle on Vita a few years back when I was still relevant in Japan. And I also think it is time for a HD collection for Switch and PS4. talk about easy money. No reason why the franchise should be stuck with Nintendo or portable devices. I enjoy my visual novel games on big screen way more like steins gate and dangan ronpa.
