PS4 got a nice hardware boost too.

 

[Putty]

Nice bump for PS4 hardware...

 

[TheDinoman]

Wow at Automata.

How much have the other Nier games sold in Japan, for reference?

 

[DKHF]

Amazing result for NieR. I remember people saying Platinum + NieR = ultimate bomba.

 

[LordOfLore]

This is Platinum's best first week since MGR, right?

 

[Perfo]

I'm so happy for yoko taro and Nier T_T
Having waifu surely helped XD

 

[Aki-at]

Almost 200,000 I said damn.

Guess Taro doesn't have to worry about that fantasy Atlus JRPG after all!

 

[Raylan]

PS4 is a heast!

 

[hamchan]

Wow that seems good for Nier.

 

[jmaine_ph]

Wow. Nier was very well received.

 

[Nirolak]

What did Bayonetta, Rising, and DMC4 debut at? This doesn't seem like it'd be tremendously off some of those.

 

[DylanEno]

Good to see Nier do so well! If only GR2 had received the same kind of love...

;_________;

 

[Possumowner]

Go Nier,good Ps4 jump as well.Cant wait to see those 1st week Switch numbers

 

[Magicpaint]

Wow, that's a fantastic result for NieR.

 

[Muffin1611]

Fuck yeah, Nier. Now it only needs to come out in Europe.

 

[Strings]

Wow, crazy PS4 software sales.

 

[Pooya]

Nier almost up there with Resident Evil 7! lol

 

[Mokubba]

FFXV price drop or was that last week?

Good hold for that, RE7 and Nioh too.

 

[Alrus]

That's a fantastic number for Nier.

 

[EPaul]

Awesome for Nier

 

[mrmickfran]

What did Bayonetta, Rising, and DMC4 debut at? This doesn't seem like it'd be tremendously off some of those.

Metal Gear Rising was at 300k

I think Bayonetta was at around 150k both PS3 and 360 versions combined.

 

[Oregano]

Excellent debut for Nier.

Ethomaz only slightly overestimated the hardware boost too.

 

[Usobuko]

Is 2017 shaping to the best year for PS4 in Japan?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

These are some fantastic numbers for NieR: Automata, I would like to know some reference numbers of other titles.

 

[mclem]

Why does XB1 have a #?

 

[L~A]

Congratz to PlatinumGames! Finally some well-deserved success again.

 

[Nirolak]

Why does XB1 have a #?

Regular and Slim.

 

[KooopaKid]

That's very good for NieR. I'm surprised. Happy for Platinum.

 

[massucci]

Man, that's really encouraging see such boost on ps4 hardware with Nier. Maybe the curse of the home console it's over in Japan?

 

[Fisico]

What did Bayonetta, Rising, and DMC4 debut at? This doesn't seem like it'd be tremendously off some of those.

Metal Gear Rising : 335k
Bayonetta : 138+66 : 204k
Devil May cry 4 : 212+40 : 252k

 

[mclem]

Regular and Slim.

But only one's listed in the lower breakdown? Or is it simply that absolutely none of the other (presumably the Regular?) were sold?

Edit: In fact, no, the XB1 in the lower breakdown seems to be the combined values again, given the LTD matches.

 

[Dystify]

Last week before Nintendo Switch (NSW), isn't it?

 

[Nirolak]

But only one's listed in the lower breakdown? Or is it simply that absolutely none of the other (presumably the Regular?) were sold?

Correct. Zero regular Xbox Ones.

 

[bigjig]

Wow insanely good Nier sales!

 

[Rodin]

01./00. [PS4] NieR: Automata <RPG> (Square Enix) {2017.02.23} (¥7.800) - 198.542 / NEW

 

[Jarod McChicken]

Nier beasting, Nioh holding, FFXV climbing and PS4 increasing the YoY growth. Everything is right here

 

[Exentryk]

NieR looking good!

 

[u_neek]

Woaaah, NieRly 200k!

Spoiler

sorry

 

[Nirolak]

Metal Gear Rising : 335k
Bayonetta : 138+66 : 204k
Devil May cry 4 : 212+40 : 252k

Given the direction of the industry, this is a remarkably strong hold relative to the genre, even beyond just being an obvious huge leap for Nier itself.

Thanks for the listing.

 

[jj984jj]

Fantastic numbers for Nier, I'm happy for both Yoko Taro and Platinum.

 

[mclem]

Correct. Zero regular Xbox Ones.

Then I think at least *one* of the LTD values is incorrect. Not sure which.

Edit: Or there might be a code bug meaning that if only one SKU has any units sold, the 'breakdown' version just reiterates the totals rather then separating them by SKU?

 

[Kresnik258]

Nier did tremendously well. Really pleased. Is this like the first example of Square Enix's IP revival stuff actually going well?

Super Robot Wars V also seems to have done really well, great. Vita version holding its own, although we are seeing more instances of PS4 beating it consistently now, it's slowly fading out.

Harukanaru actually opened higher than the last game (6) on Vita, which is... quite something for an old port. Seems to have done better than all the other PSP otome ports on the platform.

So the only release that doesn't really seem commenting on is... well... Witch & The Hundred Knight 2. What a disaster for NIS. Last game managed to eek out 100k. This game might not even reach 30k. Massive misfire, lol (unless it pulls a Coven and ends up having great legs, which I doubt, and even then that game didn't quite make it to 50k from a 17k opening).

 

[Clear]

Damn, that's as good as I hoped for Nier, and honestly better than I expected.

Yoko and Platinum have a legitimate hit, in Japan at least. So happy for them.

 

[Eolz]

The power of fanart pushing Nier that high
