I find it hilarious that Kirby games keep doing this well. People rarely talk about the series but both quality and sales are always consistently good.
DIfferent website. The numbers are just rounded.Why such even numbers for sales figures?
Are they estimates?
Ah, that makes sense.DIfferent website. The numbers are just rounded.

I predicted Star Ocean would sell 150k in April and this puts it up to 147k roughly (including PS4 and PS3), though sadly my prediction was only for the PS4 sku IIRC...
How is Xenoblade a bigger JRPG than Star Ocean? SO4 pushed over 200k on the Xbox360...
... isnt that the issue? SO4 was a franchise killing trainwreck of a game. I worry for FF15 because most folks jumped off the train as the 13 trilogy mess continued to unfold.
How come Star Ocean 5 tanked?
Was it because part 4 was 360 exclusive for a year which pissed people off or are they bad games
That's a fantastic result for Pawapuro, great growth compared to the latest installments, how did it happen?
I hope that Kirby game has some legs, it looks and sounds pretty good.
No real interest in the yearly sports game but it seems adding a PS4 SKU made a world of difference.
Also, SO5 PS3 bomba. Didn't expect much after reading about the game but I can't believe it's that low.
Yes. I was originally responding to someone who claimed that it wasn't too bad considering SO5 "probably" sold 200k combined + digital, and that "bigger JRPGs" recently have failed to clear that (low) bar. I was wondering what those bigger JRPGs were because there are none! SO is pretty big and it tanked hard!

Didn't expect PS3 version of SO5 to bomb this hard TBH.
Things aren't so complicated. Nintendo force has calmed down since there were many bans but Sony force is super strong. At least Microsoft doesn't exist in here.
I think between me and Nirolak, we banned all of Microsoft Force. Sorry guys.

No hardware numbers?

Yep, where are they??
This will be a stronger Golden Week from last year but still a shadow of the past.
Will I get ban from doing lame jokes again?
I think tri-Ace is comfirmed goner at this point.
Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness is a game I feel I would have enjoyed much more if I had just played it on easy and been able to experience the story to its fullest. The AI is flawed, the graphics an odd mix of beautiful and cheap-looking, and the protect-the-target missions are just the worst. Those invested in the series may still find plenty to enjoy here, but for me, my lasting impression of the game will forever be a negative one.

Unless he is claiming that ToB won't be able to reach 200k, which I do agree that it can happen.
P5 is 2 weeks before FFXV. this gonna be fun, looking at sales lol
Splatoon vs Persona 5 comparisons redeemed.
Isn't Yokai Watch 3 around then as well.
I don't understand what you mean.
Nah, Berseria might underperform compared to Zestiria but there's no way it would collapse under 200k LTD, the IP is not mismanaged that bad.
Still curious about what supposedly bigger RPG did worse than SO5, but I guess we will never know the answer

Not under 200K ltd but we have 2 examples of Tales games not selling more than 250K in 2 succesful (albeit not Sony) platforms: Graces and Hearts. Personally I see a 350K LTD for Berseria (it would be nice if Persona 5 would be 700K and FF XV 1.4 million ).
