Media Create Sales: Week 34, 2013 (Aug 19 - Aug 25)

Man, considering how Bravely Default and DQ7 sold on 3DS, Square Enix needs to bring out Bravely Default 2 and DQ11 to 3DS, and then when those titles top Media Create...

My mathematics tell it will CERTAINLY BE...

MC = Square E!

You misspelled iOS.

But seriously though, I do see a BD sequel for the 3DS. I think it proved itself to Square so much that it's getting a "director cut" this December. DQ11 I want to say will be for the Wii U (assuming the situation for that console will get better). But most likely though, it will be on the 3DS.

Searching the Visual Novel Database for games on consoles with the "Sexual Content" tag, it would seem it started in 96 when Elf ported some of their games to the SNES, the Saturn and the PS1.

SFC got the sequel to Knights of Xentar? Weird. Thanks for the answer.

Is there also data on which one was most rereleased one on highest number of consoles ?

Took a brief look at that database BlackLagoon posted. The big ones seem to be:

D.C. ~Da Capo~
Windows, PS2, DVD, PSP, Android, iOS [6]
25 releases [16 labelled 18+]​
Air
Windows, Dreamcast, PS2, GBA, PSP, Android, iOS [7]
18 releases [ 5 labelled 18+, 4 labelled all ages]​
Kanon
Windows, DC, PS2, PSP, Android, Blu-Ray, iOS [7]
17 releases [4 labelled 18+, 6 labelled all ages]​

There doesn't seem to be a way to search by release amount or sort by platform number, though; I might have made a mistake.

While not 100% well received, Tomb Raider generally got a good reception.

Haven't followed a whole lot of reception for Tomb Raider post-launch, but was it seen by most as an Assassin's Creed-lite (and much more linear)? That's what it seemed like to me. Like Assassin's Creed (playing Rev, thinking of skipping III and going straight to Pirates) and liked Tomb Raider (tressfx was very nice, even if it really took a hit on framerate :) ).

MC = Square E!

Oh, my. :lol

Jikkyou Powerful Pro Baseball 2013 has 5,902 pre-orders (Media Create). The pre-order bonus improves if a certain tier is reached: 10k, 20k, 30k, 40k, 50k, 60k, 70k and 80k. (The game content remains the same).

Does that sound like something you have seen before?

Atfer the way DQ7 and the spinoffs sold on 3DS, no chance this generation.

It'd only make sense if they somehow found a way to monetize it through microtransactions, otherwise it'd be pointless.

It would be easy to monetize. Your party is comprised of monsters. You can recruit some from the wild, but the strongest monsters are behind a gatchapon pay wall. You get some game currency every time you complete a quest. This can be used to roll for new monsters and a few other things. If you want more game currency, you have to buy it. The rest of the game is similar to DQIX.

I don't think this will happen, but if Square Enix wanted to go the iOS/Android F2P route, they could.

Close. It's seen as an Uncharted clone primarily.

In the thread we had comparing them, there were quite a few that liked it more than Uncharted 1 or 3, but most agreed that Uncharted 2 was the best of the "Uncharted + Tomb Raider (2013) series": http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=519480

That said, given this is a pretty highly rated series, that's a solid accomplishment for the game, even if it wasn't seen as super great as like... a Tomb Raider game.

Is there any chance/risk DQ11 goes to mobile?

Anything is possible with SE these days :(

Nope, it's what their preorder were at, at the same amount of weeks from releases than the new game coming out.

Edit: As always, those numbers don't mean much, they're just a very inaccurate barometer on how new games are performing compared to their predecessor. Don't read too much into it. Basically, it tells you that MH4 will probably (well it's guaranteed tbh) open lower than MHP3rd but higher than MHP2G and 3G.

This was posted in the Sony pre-TGS conference thread, but I thought it could be interesting to talk about here too.

There was a rumor on 2ch about 2 typical PS games getting announced in September for 3DS. Hints were 5 and 2.

Persona 5 and Type0-2??

Probably bullshit but September is here and Nintendo already killed the last Sony Pre-TGS pre-console release conference once two years ago with similar announcements.

And I'll repost the question I asked in the same thread

Anyone who's familiar with 2ch can check who posted this? We need to know if the poster is reliable / already leaked stuff in the past. I know there have been some stuff leaked by 2ch in the past, but there have also been so many fakes by 2ch in the past. And the fakes are more than the real scoops :p

GAF would end if that happened lol. I would honestly make a bowl of popcorn while I read through the thread and see meltdowns bigger than Bayonetta and possibly DQIX.

The meltdowns would be hilarious if P5 came to 3DS, but in all honesty I seriously doubt it's going to happen.

Type zero though? That's a lot more likely imo, but at this point I expect it to show up on mobile sooner or later. And a 3DS port of the first one would allow them to localize it (but they probably won't)

What numbers are the games below Wonderful 101 doing if that game is 14th with 5258? Japanese video game sales just seem incredibly weak all round.

Mario & Luigi appears to still be going strong...
 
*sigh*

would have been nice to get another "woah holy shit OUT OF LEFT FIELD" game announcement. I wasn't here during the MH4, FFXIII, DQIX stuff.
Oh but I was here for Bayonetta 2. That's gotta count.
Don't worry there's plenty of betrayalton left to happen, 3DS' lineup for next year is basically empty from third parties right now.

It would be easy to monetize. Your party is comprised of monsters. You can recruit some from the wild, but the strongest monsters are behind a gatchapon pay wall. You get some game currency every time you complete a quest. This can be used to roll for new monsters and a few other things. If you want more game currency, you have to buy it. The rest of the game is similar to DQIX.

I don't think this will happen, but if Square Enix wanted to go the iOS/Android F2P route, they could.
After DQx on Wii, I don't think the fanbase is ready for another beating. Of course they can go the ios route, but that doesn't mean its gonna pay off.

Mario & Luigi appears to still be going strong...
M&L is a case of overshipment, the numbers are actually pretty good, had they lowered the shipment abit it would be fine. Nintendo will just have to suck it up with lower profits this time.
