Decent start for DQB, especially imho on PS4. Decent start for Mario tennis too, if we look at its western performances.
Very good response for Sony HW to DQB, while the Wii U is back to irrelevancy: Splatoon and SMM already did enough, now...reality strikes back hard.

good psv and ok ps4 numbers. hope dragon quest builders has good legs. that is pretty close split between ps4 and psv for the game.
 
Decent for DQB. Not too bad for Uta no Prince Sama either. And Gundam is up thanks to the patch, I think?

However, Asterisk Wars a lot less than I was expecting.

Nice for Vita hardware, shame there's not much to sustain it.

Nice, DQ:B better than I expected on PS4.
Didn't think it would be so "close" to the Vita version.
Now let's see if the game is able to follow Minecrafts legs when it's a bit cheaper.

A true walking dead.
Vita is life

Great opening for DQB. Is 51k good for Uta no Prince-Sama: Music 3 for FW?
 
Really solid DQB.

PS4 nearly double of what it did last year.

PS4 versions of games still outdoing PS3 versions.

The leggy titles managing to perform as usual.

Wii U steadily dropping. I wonder where it will stabilize.

Vita lives!

X1 more than 50% up!
 
Dragon Quest Builders did great. Legs will be crucial for how far it goes.

Vita also sold really well. Dem metal slime Vitas.
Mario Tennis did surprisingly well considering the state of the series.

Looks like PSV+PS4 makes for a good combo for Japanese titles...
Wonder if the cost of developping for both at the same time is doable for smaller scale companies (indies and small publishers)?

i personally think World of FF will do similar numbers for vita and ps4. also maybe dqh2 might help vita since it is the first entry on it

Nice DQB numbers! Nice numbers for Vita and PS4! Wii U is going to dip below 6k me thinks :/

Also looks like Vita is soon ahead in sales from last year. Not bad for a handheld

It's a little disappointing that Wii U has pretty much returned to pre Splatoon hardware levels, but Mario Tennis had a great opening week software wise.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Unexpected result for Dragon Quest: Builders. What the fuck @ Vita's increase, that's huge. IIRC, there was a bundle as well, though...? PS4 didn't increase that much week-over-week, while 3DS has been doing fine, in the past few weeks, compared to 2015's first weeks, around the same numbers (for MC, there's a bigger difference for Famitsu). Also, after many weeks, Wii U is back under 10,000 units sold, despite Mario Tennis having a decent debut despite its quality and Splatoon not dropping at all, almost (4% decrease week-over-week is nothing).

Surprisingly close between DQB Vita and PS4. Very solid hardware boosts, especially Vita.

Shame about Yakuza Kiwami WoW drop, but not that unexpected I guess.

I don't get why people see DQB debut SO solid. It did well, but DQ spinoffs sell very well in Japan, Minecraft is a million seller on Vita, and Sony platform tend to sell third party games. Plus, this was the first DQ game on a Sony portable platform...ever?

Please, note that I'm not downtoning the good numbers, but I'd say that a good start (it is around 370k combining three consoles, right?) was a lock, wasnt't it?

Many DQ spinoffs are even able to become million sellers in Japan, Minecraft is among the most popular games, etc...etc...

Am I wrong?

I know that there were doubts about pricing and multiplayer, but those two aspects will, eventually, impact its "legs", not the debut.

For DQB I really give credit to Nino to make the game interesting, and also give big credit to Horii himself for commanding the entire team to make the game intuitive so anyone interested can beat it.

Eh, IIRC Monsters is the only franchise with that track record, no?

Oh man, great debut for DQB!

SQEnix must be happy and by extent, Sony, for having a builder series that'll prop up their platform.

Is this the first time Splatoon fell off the Top 10?
