1. -KH3D nice! 200k may be low for a KH game but 3DS has a smaller userbase than NDS did when KH358/2 days came out and when PSP's KH BBS came out so no point in comparing this game to the older installations.

2. -Pokemon Conquest, what game is that o.O?


1. PSP has a smaller user base and yet BBS still outsold 358/2 days.

This is a sales thread and comparing it with BBS and 358/2 is valid because it was released on a handheld platform.

2. Pokemon nobunaga's ambition.

Nice 3ds numbers again. Ps3 and psp still going along well and decent boost for vita :D ps2 above Xbox 360 again... Nothing new here.



KH is indeed dissapointing... How are the user reviews? I hope it's not because of the quality!
Maybe they are growing tired of all the spin-offs, bring us KH III already !

I thought Kingdom Hearts sold pretty well? Obviously got a lot more people to purchase the 3DS over there.
I am pretty happy with that Kid Icarus drop, what about you guys?

Finally what the heck is Pokemon Conquest?


It unfornutely dind't sold pretty well compared to other titles in the series. Which is unfortunate, since this looks like a well crafted game, not just a spin off. To not expect a Distant Drop next week would be a Dream (ba dum tsss)

Kid Icarus held nice, I agree, 300k or even more is obtainable!

And Pokémon Conquest is the one and only Pokemon + Nobunag, already named after the North American release.

Doesnt it look great?

Yeah I just discovered in a News thread that it is the US name for it. Comes out June 18th in the states!


You just have to read the thread TBH. There's 2 people answered it already and you can see it above your post. I slightly disappointed that you didn't bother to read the thread.

Kingdom Hearts sales could be better. Which is weird, because from what I've seen, players seem to like the game.

Dynasty Warriors + Pokemon


Please no! It's Nobunaga's Ambition + Pokémon!

Strategy, not mindless hack n slash against even more mindless soldiers



Yeah, Kingdom Hearts will probably do about as well as Birth by Sleep, once you add international sales.

Pos Game Platform Year Genre Publisher North America Europe Japan Rest of World Global
1 Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days DS 2009 Role-Playing Square Enix 0.97 0.21 0.53 0.12 1.84
2 Kingdom Hearts Re:coded DS 2010 Role-Playing Square Enix 0.41 0.06 0.27 0.04 0.77

Well it is already almost past the Re:coded DS game in Japan, and 358/2 is only a few months in sales away. So what is the big deal?

 

Pos Game Platform Year Genre Publisher North America Europe Japan Rest of World Global
1 Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep PSP 2010 Role-Playing Square Enix 0.53 0.33 0.75 0.22 1.84
2 Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep - Final Mix PSP 2011 Role-Playing Square Enix 0.00 0.00 0.15 0.00 0.15

Now compared to the first version of Birth by sleep it could have a ways to go. So I agree here.

It won't cross those 358 days numbers ever! Not without a Final Mix release... and even then it's hard! And that was considered just mediocre sales for the series.

It was a disappointment, no doubt about it.



insane 3ds vita gap
