Abu DQXI forse switch it could be technically possible to run both versions, but wont happen
Can wait to snack world sell 500k and be defined a flop here on GAF
Are there any raw numbers for sales projections for Snack world?
Peace dont refer to the "It Will be the next big thing " sentence. ..

Yes, but more info as in weekly could make it less likely to talk more but that's 5050
Npd use to always have big threads but have really gone down the past few years. Which is what publishers want I believe.
If YW4 drops below 500k and Snack World tops it, Hino's vision comes true.
Level-5 is a private company, so they don't give out sales projections.
There's none, and I was refering to this exact sentence. It clearly indicates that they are expecting another phenomena like Yokai Watch did. You could argue about what number it could means, but it's certainly way more than 500k in any case.
Bingo !
On average YSO expects Sukiyaki's first two week sales to be lower than Shinuchi's second week sales.
Yo-kai Watch Movie 3 also just came out in Japan, last year the brand was strong enough that Movie 2 outgrossed Star Wars on opening weekend, with Movie 2 coming out on Sunday.
To further see how the brand has devaluated Yo-kai Watch will be releasing against Star Wars yet again, so it's interesting to see if Movie 3 manages to outgross a Star Wars spin off.

Does Pokemon still have a chance to sell 4m LTD?

500k for a new IP is a flop. wow
This thread is just going crazy...
The yokai movie is also a spinoff.

Literally nobody thinks that. Both ends of that spectrum (portable being 3DS-level and docked being PS4-level) are ridiculous things that I've never seen anyone say. That said, it'll certainly be technically closer to PS4 than 3DS by any measure except raw FLOPS count. A downgraded PS4 version definitely makes more sense. Switch is, at worst, as powerful as a Vita successor would have been.
Why poor Hino ? Of course his goal as content creator will always be to top his previous work. If it happens or not is another discussion.
... seriously? :| Save the question for now and ask again after the holidays (if you still think it might not have a chance to sell 4m LTD).
Right, I posted that in here last week, but that was the statement Aostia was asking be explicitly excluded in favor of raw numbers, yes?

Holidays are almost over and I don't think it will sell over a million in the next few weeks
I like to think you're actually trying to get Chris mad.
Hino wants Snack World to become L5's next big hit. After looking at Layton, Inazuma and Yo-Kai in Japan (and WW), 500k is not what he expects.

Yeah but console gaming is dead so doing half of your predecessors is completely fine./s

I dk what you are talking about. I did not have any intention in making anyone mad.
Just stating my opinion upon observation on media create threads.
Oh, I definitely agree on that sentiment.
That said, I think unit sales might be the wrong way to think about this. It's a mobile game, so presumably they're not planning to sell a 5900 yen game on phones. It's plausibly an f2p title where all the revenue comes from digital and (importantly) physical loot boxes.

Isn't the Sony-store exclusive Harukanaru Toki no Naka LE Vita releasing on the 20th?

"The next big thing" could mean anything, but "a boom that surpasses Youkai Watch" rules out 500k being anything other than a flop, unless only the mobile version is a phenomenon and the sales of the 3DS version end up just being the cherry on top.

How does that % drop compare to the other ff games for week3?
Just in case you're not trolling (and I'm seriously doubting it) 2 points to note:
1.- Holidays are not almost over, in fact the 3 biggest weeks of the year (SW and HW) are still coming.
2.- Even when holidays are over and if Pokemon doesn't sell a million, Sun and Moon are not going to stop selling. They're the very definition of legs (with Mario and Animal Crossing) and I'm pretty sure it'll stay in the top20 until Switch releases in Japan.
I don't know which Media Create threads have you been following but you should already know how Pokemon sells.
That's when preorders open.

When's release?
They didn't say. Probably when the game comes out in a few months.

Shhh. It'll be in the top 20 for years!
Ouch...
Best (worst) case scenario, they're just recycling some (most) assets from DQX to XI and volla! 2017!!!
We don't know how it will do in the long run but the holidays wouldn't matter if the game was bad/unappealing.
If it's bad sure, but unappealing is debatable. It's the newest first party release, might make for a good gift or self gift. Holiday spirit makes people take more liberties with their wallets.
Fairly sure Momotaro Dentetsu is the latest first party release, also you know... Super Mario Maker 3DS. Don't let that get in the way of your weird vendetta against Miitopia though.

For Chris, holidays hasn't started yet, and you're saying they are almost over.
which media create threads you observed is telling you Pokemon has to sell over a million in the next few weeks for it to sell more than 4 mil LT?

It's his vendetta against Miis, not Miitopia as a game - even though Miitopia itself selling well/bad has little crossover with the fact that Miis still have/now don't have appeal.
At least it's kinda entertaining just to follow his naive leaps of logic.
