Media Create Sales: Week 39, 2011 (Sep 26 - Oct 02)

I never realized Family Fishing was still selling, for such a niche genre it sure does have decent legs.

Ah the calm before the storm.
I'm really going to enjoy average sales threads like these until things get really crazy Nov.-Dec.

Interesting to see the huge drop-off on Dark Souls, but it was expected really.
Also the 3DS is staying steady around the 50K mark, and the PS2 saw a unit loss of 25 consoles.

There it is! Boom! Only 6 posts this time.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
The most visible sign of the anticipation for 3DS Holiday lineup?

| 3DS | 53.540

DS 39,137

Always Week 40, obviously.

Next week, however, there's a possibility to see 3DS under DS in this special comparison.
In fact, in Week 41 of 2005

DS - 44,262

And next week is the one before the Pink, so it should be normal to see a drop in units sold.

I don't get it, how can the 3DS still sell over 50k while there's just 2 games in there?

It can't be ALL in prevision of December, it's 2 months away almost!

Oh, yeah

3DS at 2.017.645

Over 2 millions.
Let's all celebrate!

Games sold outside the top 20 and used game sales.

I think some of the more aware shoppers are grabbing the 3DS early, as they remember what happened with both the NDS and Wii for over a year. No one wants to be waiting outside in lines for the next shipment to arrive again. Considering there is a pretty good shot at the 3DS selling out this holiday, I think they are smart with getting it early and not have to worry about availability.

I'm curious as to how much stock of 3DS there is on shelves at the moment. I'm thinking there's a very real possibility of it selling out over Christmas, and I'm curious as to what sort of numbers those would be.

(That's ignoring the fact that presumably Nintendo are also going to be ramping up shipments as they approach the holiday, of course)

It's probably mostly because they want to make sure they have one this year. Other reasons could be DSiware, Virtual Console (Japan gets more games than the rest of the world) and DS backwards compatibilty. I guess some people are buying used games too.

Dragon Quest Collection is starting to show some legs.

Also, is it just me or does OoT always chart higher in Famitsu? It was number ten there this week and I seem to remember the same thing for a couple of weeks now. Does anyone know if their total number for it is higher or is it just tiny differences that changes the charting order all the time

wtf stop that. you are not on random german boards with 13 year old kids who appreciate this kind of posting.


btw, i personally love that the 3ds seems to stabilize, I really hope it can become a success for nintendo, as I fear an iOS gaming future

Chris do you have a graph for PS3 software in 2010 comparing it to 2011?
Only if we compare market share from Famitsu with total sales from Media Create.
Busaiku said:
That's a pretty small drop for the Dragon Quest Collection.
Guess supply was the main issue?
Cheesemeister said no but some japanese blogs said there were indeed stock problems at some stores.

MesserWolf said:
why the graph for the 3ds isn't positioned from week 1 ? missing data ?
Because the 3DS's first week corresponds to the DS's eighth week. The DS launched in what, November in 2004, the 3DS launched in February.

EDIT:Never mind...

Actually that's just the whole year comparison.
It's ignoring DS's launch November and December.

Oh okay, I see. My mistake.
I thought the DS launch numbers looked extraordinarily low...
 
PdotMichael said:

I suppose we should also take in account that 3DS should be now be much cheaper than DSi; now that the high price tag shouldn't be an issue anymore and the line-up has been growing stronger since the launch, so all newbuyers can easily pick up all the stuff they've missed so far waiting for the big pieces due out next November and December.

Nice legs for DQ Collection, I bet it can make 500k by the end of the holidays. Nintendo should release the Blue Wii in Japan as a tie in for the Anniversary.

Slime Blue Wii?
 
But... but... but... according to gaming journalists and NeoGAF, the 3DS and Nintendo were doomed!

I'm going to post this every time the 3DS is at the top of the charts.
