Dengeki.

Yakuza 6 sells 60% of its shipment, 216k units sold, 360k units shipped.

The Last Guardian sells 55% of its shipment, 70k units sold, 130k units shipped.

More than 15 million physical PS4 games have been sold in Japan, with around 8 million sold this year.

We can't do a proper comparison with the PS3 as there was no software tracking that far back, and the best we can do is compare it to the data we get from the yearly Top 500/1000 of the time.

Anyway, in around 34 months PS4 sells 15.1 million games, in 38 months, which is the best comparison we can make, PS3 sells 15.7 million games, in the same timeframe Vita sells 11 million games.

Also Dead Rising 4 not on Dengeki, but given Xbox One software sales it must've sold around 2k.

Those are both rather "woof" figures, aren't they? Did retailers expect a considerably stronger software adoption rate, or were they given "incentives" to bolster such larger shipment numbers/

Pretty much tells us that it really isn't PS4s fault why FF XV and Yakuza 6 bombed. PS4 owners have actually bought more games than early PS3 owners (especially when you add digital). I guess it's more about PS4s userbase being more split between gamers who play traditional Japanese games and people who play western blockbusters. Early PS3 base still bought mostly only Japanese games and western games started to grow towards the end of its life.

With a cheap port of a one year old game selling so well on 3DS there is the question how strong Mario Maker really is and how high it could go if it was a 3DS instead of Wii U title.
Sales of a potential sequel on Switch, like Splatoon, will be interesting (if it's a proper sequel and not a repeat of the same formula).
Click to expand...

Sales potential of Splatoon is entirely about the adoption of Switch by 3DS owners if there are 10 million Switches sold by the end of the year in Japan there is going to be close to 10 million Splatoon owners. If there is 5 million Switches there will be close to 5 million Splatoon sold.
I don't even think that being a proper sequel matters on the Japanese market because we are talking about 20 mil possible customers compared to 3.5 mil Wii U owners half of which probably bought a Wii U to play Splatoon. The fact that it will have new modes, LAN, portability is enough anything extra will be eaten up by the Japanese.

My personal opinion is that Splatoon will retain the same type of update rollout as the Wii U version and the game will act as a platform that will attempt to keep owners engaged via constant updates and even more events.
I also had a thread that sort of delved into this about whether Nintendo will treat it's major franchises as platforms on the Switch similar to the way Valve/Blizzard deal with games like CS/Dota/WoW/Diablo etc.

It's worth remembering how bad the first few years of the PS3 were in Japan, where similarly to the Wii U a huge chunk of its total sales was split between a handful of games.

For instance, by the end of 2009 1/3 of the total PS3 software sales was split between Final Fantasy XIII, Metal Gear Solid 4, Resident Evil 5, Yakuza 3 and the Winning Eleven game released the year before that, combined those 5 games sold over 5 million units.

Nowadays on the PS4 we see sales distributed much better, the top 5 games on the system don't ammount to even 3 million and the difference between them and the rest of the games in the system isn't quite as large, PS4 owners are buying more and more varied software than PS3 owners did launches aligned.

PS4 has much better and more software support than PS3 at its first years. DS, PSP and even Wii to a point were the major platforms for publishers. It's expected there is bigger variety at sales even with big sellers underperforming.

Interesting to see this franchise. Looks like the FW sales are growing. Not sure about whether this third iteration will sell another 40K this holidays, but it's possible.

This wasn't great for Yakuza, but man, look at Akiba's Beat, that completely flopped. I thought the first (well, second) game sold moderately well (for what it was). What the hell happened?

SEGA announced they shipped 500k, so that means 140k shipped to Asia? That's a great number for Asia isn't it?

I found this article on Kiwami's Asian shipments and 0's sold-through numbers. Kiwami shipped 200K in Asia and 0 sold-through 100K. I would put Yakuza 6's Asian shipments as 'not bad'.

Beat me to the punch but yes, that would be a good number considering they didn't ship to South Korea this time. For reference Yakuza 0 sold over 100,000 and Yakuza Kiwami had a shipment of 200,000.

Not sure if those games had the Playstation 3 SKU released with them? Can someone confirm?

1) Make portable beat 'em up franchise.
2) Do janky RPG spinoff.
3) Release it exclusively on home console.
4) Gungho shuts you down.

Yesterday was the release of Sukiyaki. It was quite big, considering the decrease of interest in the franchise lately. Out the Sushi and Tempura Busters T-Pack with the approval of this Jibanyan, lol.

The late release of 2DS was such a good movement from Nintendo, and it helped a lot to sustain this year' sales. Came out yesterday, this new model. Famicom Mini was restocked as well. During this holiday, it seems Nintendo is doing things quite right. There is stock even for Wii U. On topic of things being restocked, there will be a new shipment of PSVR nationwide for tomorrow.

Monster Hunter XX is very popular, and highly pre-ordered. On the other hand, FFXV is reaching handheld prices already, this time at 5,480yen.

2016 took many things from us but atleast it did something right and killed Yokai Watch in Japan. Now the true king (Pokemon) can safely sit on its throne and enjoy dominance in Japan as intended.

Pikachu > Yokai Watch.

I love how in your example you couldn't even be bothered to name a yokai to compare with Pikachu lol.

Pikachu > Cat Pikachu

In all seriousness, the drop off YW has seen is crazy and I'm not really confident in any of the other stuff L5 is working on.

This is probably because SMM is selling very very well.
Next two weeks sales will be amazing.

Well, also that Rakuten leans a lot towards leggy games. Sukiyaki should have sold at least 70k first day, and Mario Maker shouldn't have sold more than 20k on Thursday. So, it's inconsistent.
I acknowledge it.

Is there anyone here who thinks The Snack World looks good? Level-5 wants it to be huge but it looks like a flop to me. I expect Yokai Watch to remain Level-5's top franchise for some time, regardless of the declines.

Yeah, I don't see that doing well and haven't liked it since the reveal. Their other big multimedia projects are an attempt to revive Inazuma, and that Megaton Musashi where the game is clearly an afterthought. It will be interesting to see how Ni No Kuni 2 does WW at least.

1) Make portable beat 'em up franchise.
2) Do janky RPG spinoff.
3) Release it exclusively on home console.
4) Gungho shuts you down.

Also, remove the main selling point of the previous series.
The Akiba stores aren't even licensed

Safe dominance got us Pokémon X and Y. Fighting off a young pretender got us Pokémon Sun and Moon. Give Pokémon a fight rather than casual dominance any day.

So how did Super Mario Run do in Japan - I see in conquered the charts in the US and Europe but either Japanese charts are not up to date or it failed to even chart there

Higher wall to climb in Japan to get in the top 10 grossing apps. People always underestimate how massive mobile games are over there.
