Well, at least FIFA still won't outsell WE this year in Japan. That's something. Right Konami? Riiiight?

There's a chance it outsells the PS4 version if legs are good. WE17 vanished from Top 100 Amazon and it has poor reviews (2.4 stars), meanwhile Fifa is still on the top 10 with good reviews (4.3 stars)

My take on Demon Gaze 2 not performing as well as it should have is because it's theme is so far removed from that of the first game with the idol nonsense and whatnot or at least that's what I can tell from the promotional material.

I think unless it's something really great (Coven), people are just tired of Vita DRPGs. Especially Experience's.

Famicom Mini ads are in every store, so I would assume it will have a good opening. Btw, do we know how Media Create or Famitsu will track it?

Sure, but then what's with this:

Becuase I'm an expert...kidding.
What I mean is, it's stay on longer and drop fewer than most of jRPGs.
And about at retailer perspective, she said like "people recommend it to friends", "game is good", "word-of-mouth was spread about how good the game is" result on more sale.

Next is FFXV, will it good, will it 50% off on first month?

According to Famitsu, both PS$ and PS3 versions of Persona 5 had a 80-100% sell-through, so maybe there're stock issues.
 
Famitsu is up.

Demon Gaze 2 sellthrough is 40-60%. Not to labor the point too much, but I think that's another indicator that it's underperformed.

Apparently Dead Rising & DR2 also released for PS4 this week? With 20-40% sellthrough, lol.

Interesting things to note from above chart are that:
- Minecraft is a beast, both PSVita and Wii U version.
- Next month we possibly couldn't have Wii U top three software, since I highly doubt Splatoon will ever return to weekly top twenty.
- PS4 games have no legs, lol.
Except GTAV. ww
- Konami got around 1500% boost only because Winning Eleven, next month will be out until, forever maybe?
- Software monthly-wise is down even though this month is counting five weeks. So we can imagine, how poor it has been. The next one will be even worse.
- Nintendo is out of top five publishers. Well, with top fifty it surely is on top five, but only counting the weekly top twenty we can see a very slow month for Nintendo.

How did MHS go from predicted as a seemingly sure success with probably well over 1mil sales to a potential bomb?
Well, Capcom never actually listed it in their predictions which list all games with 1+ million sales targets, but I would say that perception essentially way overvalued the combination of brand strength and apparent product quality in terms of their ability to actually sell the game to a different audience than the one already buying the series.

Or, put more simply, people thought children and/or existing fans would be really interested in what looked like a high quality Monster Hunter kids RPG when in reality neither audience cared at all.

Pretty much summed up perfectly.

It's the quality aspect first and foremost personally speaking. It looks a hell of a lot better than Gaist Crusher and Gyrozetter for one.
 
Because it didn't debut with big numbers?

You guys are very quick to judge.

I watched the first episode and it was awesome. Maybe those who watched will recommend it to their friends and the rest is history.
No, I would say more because of how low it debuted rather than it not having big numbers.

It could surprise though. I didn't say otherwise, of course.

Awesome?
I liked it but it's your average children anime. Also the cg monsters are ugly.
 
We were reacting to the name and graphics without thinking much.


At least I was.

Sensible explanation. Makes a lot of sense. It'll be interesting to see if it had any remote legs I guess.

Splatoon hype is over and that's reflecting Wii U hw. If there weren't the bundles it would have already leave high charting positions.

Gears of War 4 not coming out in Japan apparently, Phantom Dust is though.
 
A low first week is guaranteed for Monster Hunter Stories but the legs will be interesting. It could have word of mouth on its side. It should be easier for people to believe that a Monster Hunter game is worth playing than an unknown IP.

Sure, but then what's with this:

Becuase I'm an expert...kidding.
What I mean is, it's stay on longer and drop fewer than most of jRPGs.
And about at retailer perspective, she said like "people recommend it to friends", "game is good", "word-of-mouth was spread about how good the game is" result on more sale.

Next is FFXV, will it good, will it 50% off on first month?

It's a nice week for P5, for sure, but it's also always hard to talk about legs when it's still that soon in the life of a game, that's what I meant by that.

If Stories ends up selling well, I'm presuming it'll because it has legs, not just because it got everyone to buy it 1st week. Like others have said, it really depends on what Capcom's expectations were in the first place. If they didn't list it in their expected million sellers, that's a start.

I told everyone that nobody but Level 5 or Nintendo can launch mega kid brands.
Gaist Crusher, Sega's stuff, and so on should've been evidence enough.

That figure includes Asia and Digital, right? So it's uncertain how many copies are left in "Japan" for the game. But I think they won't have any stock problems.

We guess it includes Asia because the figure is too high for Japan alone. But it's not confirmed. It can be that stores are flooded with copies as well, since 80% sell-through means 100k left at stores. And that's the low end that Famitsu is sharing (80-100%). Since isn't a exact figure.

I doubt this is the case, but stock problems either.

I think there's no reason at all for them not to count total shipments of the Japanese version of the game, regardless of region. They're the ones publishing and distributing it in Asia after all, not some other partner.
