Media Create Sales: Week 52, 2015 (Dec 21 - Dec 27)

Analysts believe, and rightfully so, that Nintendo's Full Year guidance will be lower than anticipated from management citing lower revenue potential from mobile only fully kicking in in 2018.

Bloomberg report http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-01-06/nintendo-drops-in-tokyo-after-smbc-nikko-cuts-recommendation

Nintendo's stock is almost where its at prior to the Dena announcement, quite a fall.

Stock closed down 7.62%

Today's closing: 15,160.00
Price before DeNA deal: 14,080.00
Price before Miimoto reveal: 23,010.00

Looks like MHX won't overtake MH4 in digital sales unless it is of-course already very close (MHX sales are dropping).

Monster Strike is selling relatively well digitally.

Retail shortages of Disney Magic Castle 2 led to a short spike in digital buys.

I'll post the digital rankings for the entire year probably tomorrow (they're separated between card software, download only and Virtual Console although it doesn't take a genius to work out the overall top three).

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!

Just a question: do current charts and All-time charts display different rankings from what can be seen on Nintendo's website? The fact they stayed exactly the same (with the same thing happening on Italian eShop Charts, at least till yestarday) since Tuesday makes me think they haven't updated them at all since then.

Just a question: do current charts and All-time charts display different rankings from what can be seen on Nintendo's website? The fact they stayed exactly the same (with the same thing happening on Italian eShop Charts, at least till yestarday) since Tuesday makes me think they haven't updated them at all since then.
I don't compare the two often but there have been discrepancies in the past but there are a lot of discrepancies as far as Nintendo are concerned. For instance they once posted only 24 entries in the top 25 theme charts, sometimes game links go to the wrong games, sometimes the software list misses out a game on the website and so forth. The charts align as I write this however.

Looks like 4Gamer.net did a Week 52 + 53 combo. Nice.
 
Even if Monster Strike managed to sell other 200k last week there are still 200k unsold copies at shelves.

Just too much overconfidence - a shame since the game is selling greatly; 850-900k units for an unproven IP in the dedicated space and with such low production values is quite a big result.

Thanks. Nintendomination at its finest. I wonder how much a drop would be if Pokémon Z or whatever were released.

Dragon Quest VIII showing better legs than Fire Emblem Fates is something unexpected.

Yeah, honestly surprised at DQVIII's legs. Also, it sold around 40k units on the eShop, so the game definitely cracked the 900k mark.

So 2015 was the slowest year for gaming in Japan since 1988?
