Media Create Sales: Week 42, 2012 (Oct 15 - Oct 21)

 

[Smellycat]

Lowest Vita numbers ever?

 

[hongcha]

Bravely Default showing its legs.

 

[RPGamer92]

SFxT Vita megaflop

 

[Salvadora]

Love those Bravely Default legs.

 

[vareon]

06./03. [3DS] Bravely Default: Flying Fairy <RPG> (Square Enix) {2012.10.11} (¥6.090) - 31.001 / 213.960 (-25%)

 

[twentytwo22]

Interesting (I guess) that the Vita sales of Zero Evo didn't drop like a rock (comparatively) due to the freezes that still haven't been fixed.

Vita is (still) dead (again).

 

[saichi]

Rocksmith is a hit!

 

[BadWolf]

...yeah, I'll wait for about a year before I consider buying a Vita even though I really want to right now.

With each week there is less and less hope for the system.

 

[added_time]

08./06. [3DS] New Super Mario Bros. 2 (-4%)

Expected legs but still nice.

 

[Damo Yoshi]

How long has it been since the 3DS hasn't been the hardware with the most Top 20 software?

Loa-ding-u~~~

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Vita under 6k.

Bloody hell.

Oh, and good to see that BD holds still.

 

[Aostia]

Yay at BDFF!

 

[tanooki141]

Poor Vita

 

[bloke]

12./00. [360] Phantom: Phantom of Inferno # <ADV> (Nitro+) {2012.10.25} (¥7.140) - 15.468 / NEW

That's Forza Horizon

 

[Sadist]

Yay BD. Yikes at Vita. SF x T Vita bombed hard.

 

[Miles X]

If you said 3 years ago that 360 stood a chance of outlasting DS and Wii in Japan you'd have been put in the nuthouse.

 

[Damo Yoshi]

WAIT WHAT

Was the magnitude of that SFxT result expected? Poor Ono. =(

 

[CoachKevin]

Lowest Vita numbers ever?

As a new Vita owner that doesn't make me feel too great about the system's future. They need something big to sell the hardware.

edit: seriously, the PSP is outselling it almost 3 to 1

 

[metalslimer]

Great Dark Souls numbers. I don't see how anyone could think Vita has a chance right now.

 

[tnaden]

Great Dark Souls numbers. I don't see how anyone could think Vita has a chance right now.

In Japan it would be a miracle at this point.

 

[BadWolf]

Are those ZOE numbers decent?

 

[TurnoftheCentury]

Nice legs on Bravely Default and how much lower can the Vita possibly go?

 

[Erethian]

Lowest Vita numbers ever?

Going by Media Create? Yeah.

 

[Celine]

Go BD!
Hope it will have long legs for to be a SE rpg.

 

[Aostia]

Lowest Vita numbers ever?

Yes

1. 5,806
2. 6,134
3. 6,340

but also expected.

I think that also the Wii registers its lowest result today.
Obviously, there are big differences between the 2 data (almost 11.5 millions differences)

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Vita close to joining the Wii and 360 and PS2. Don't worry Vita, everything floats down here!

RE6 and Dark Souls have been beastly.

 

[Mpl90]

I thought AKB48+Me would have done worse, actually.

 

[metalslimer]

When are the new Vita colors out? Only thing that can stop it from sliding below 5k right now.

 

[electroplankton]

04./00. [3DS] AKB48+Me <ADV> (Kadokawa Games) {2012.10.25} (¥5.670) - 40.542 / NEW

This did way more than expected.

 

[Canis lupus]

02./00. [PS3] Dark Souls with Artorias of the Abyss Edition <RPG> (From Software) {2012.10.25} (¥4.800) - 67.002 / NEW

YES


PS3 still doing good post new slim.

Nov 15.

No new releases for the next few weeks.

When are the new Vita colors out? Only thing that can stop it from sliding below 5k right now.

15th November.
The exact same day of the NSMB2 bundle.

 

[MrT-Tar]

Bravely Default numbers are amazing and I'm glad to see it doing well. Vita on the other hand, not even in my wildest dreams did I foresee a situation this bad (and I was a Vita pessimist as well), I really hope it sees a swift recovery.

 

[Bruno MB]

[PS3] Dark Souls <RPG> (From Software) {2011.09.22} (¥7.800) - 279.567 / 353.549

02./00. [PS3] Dark Souls with Artorias of the Abyss Edition <RPG> (From Software) {2012.10.25} (¥4.800) - 67.002 / NEW

Total - 420.551

11./01. [PSP] Little Battlers eXperience W <RPG> (Level 5) {2012.10.18} (¥4.980) - 16.509 / 93.966 (-79%)

54,43% sell-through.

 

[Kenshin001]

Lol at Vita sales. The Hindenburg of handhelds.

 

[Canis lupus]

20./00. [PSV] Street Fighter X Tekken <FTG> (Capcom) {2012.10.25} (¥4.990) - 5.420 / NEW

Awwww :/

 

[electroplankton]

A funny thing to notice is that there are 5 third party 3DS games in the chart, and just 3 Nintendo games.

 

[Fabrik]

Vita about to die.

Edit: At this pace it will take 4 more weeks for Vita to reach 1 million.

 

[Yoshi]

Your 3DS last week on Famitsu is wrong.

 

[Nibel]

Bravely Default is doing a pretty good job - guess this ensures some more support from SE

And also I love those Dark Souls numbers, yummy!

 

[AranhaHunter]

If MH4 was the knock out blow to the Vita, DQ7R is the final death blow to it.

 

[grimshawish]

Vita at 5k with a release and another game selling above 7k in its second week; next week what have we got for it?

Borderlands 2 did 'decently' for a western game in its first week.

BD doing brilliant still - wonder if this will see more new IPs launching on the 3DS as confidence grows? Download version could skew figures next week.
NSMB2 finding its feet or gently falling? Am not sure which.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

20./00. [PSV] Street Fighter X Tekken <FTG> (Capcom) {2012.10.25} (¥4.990) - 5.420 / NEW

Awwww :/

Marvel Vita never charted in the Top 50, it's doing better than expected.

 

[slaughterking]

Little Battlers dropped like a rock.

 

[watershed]

Kind of a boring week. Not much to talk about though I'm happy for Capcom that RE6 is doing well.

 

[Castor Krieg]

No matter how you look at it, Vita is a spectacular fail for Sony.

 

[Culex]

Previous low for Vita was 6,340 May 7 - May 13.

Shockingly bad now. We are approaching the 3DS' all time low of 4,132 during the week of Aug 1st 2011, right before the price cut went into effect.

 

[Nibel]

Just saw that Vita number

Simply the most desirable handheld yet released

 

[gamergirly]

Good sales all around
