The hold is better but the numbers are lower.
What makes these numbers even worse is the fact that PS4 dropped quite a lot before Slim release.
Click to expand...

PS3 Slim also came with a 10.000 yen price drop while the PS4 Slim had just a 5.000 yen price cut.
Also back in 2009 the home console market was stronger in Japan that it is today (although it was already declining).

So PS4 finally outsold Wii U, not that impressive seeing how bad Wii U had it in Japan. I wonder if the baseline will hover around 25-30k now.
Click to expand...

Relatively to the market size WiiU has actually done less worst in Japan. Europe is the biggest bomba zone by far for WiiU.

13./11. [3DS] Kirby: Planet Robobot <ACT> (Nintendo) {2016.04.28} (¥4.700) - 5.691 / 439.426 (+5%)

Should have no trouble reaching 500k before the end of the year.

That thread will never not be hilarious.

Also how low does a console sales have to be before it stops getting tracked?

Console are tracked until they're fully discontinued.

Its sales have been pretty steady since launch (again, price cuts definitely helped a bit), so I assume holiday sales will be pretty good. How well it sells will depends on how big of an impact Pokémon Sun and Moon will have.



I thought the initial + second shipment = 1.3m?
Click to expand...

Over 1.3m
Famitsu had the shipment around 1.32m

450k at retail is pretty much a lock for Persona 5. 500k will be much harder to reach. But with digital it'll probably cross 500k and there should be be a PR put out announcing that they have shipped over 500k including digital at some point. Without a re-release that's about the ceiling for Japanese sales I think. The next step will be watching how it performs outside of Japan next year.

Do we have PS2 and PSP numbers for the first Utawarerumono? I'd love to be able to compare the whole trilogy in terms of console sales.

That One Piece game sure tanked. Even if we consider it an overpriced OP branded retail expansion for the DBZ fighter, those are some seriously asstastic sales.

Yeah... October isn't going to be pretty. At least, the Nintendo 2DS are helping so far.

He's a pretty swell guy in my books anyway.
Really sad to see P5 lose the top spot. It is doing well though so I hope Sega/Atlus is happy with it.

And I guess that cross play thing really didn't work out for Bandai Namco looking at One Piece sales.

I said this more times but again, i can assure it will surpass 22 million this year pretty easy.

And i can see 3DS selling over 24 million lifetime, if not 25 million (maybe that's unlucky but not impossible).

I wonder which one has the best chance to hit the lowest prediction it got, maybe FFXV ? Though even that is not certain lol.

I'd hope so, it's a game I would probably actually buy if it came to the west...and nx.

the anime might do something, or not.

edit:
Did we ever find out what Capcom's other game was with the 2m exceptions or something?
Was that RE7?

Well he did say it may do better than those pessimistic expectations, so let's not get too excited about that yet. Anyway I hope Capcom can finally hit those kid audience like Hino has been doing for almost a decade.

Wouldn't they do a cheaper rerelease at some point? Maybe to coincide with Western launch next year?

The first (second) game focused mostly on new cast of characters, this new game (the third) will hopefully be bringing more of the old cast back and give them more time.

I'm biased, but old cast > new cast.
