Nice hold for 3DS, and the Vita does still have a little tiny morsel of life left!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Well, at least it shouldn't drop below 10k for the rest of the year. This week got nothing impressive, but Atelier Totori releases on the 29th, that game should be moderately successful and give the Vita a boost. Then it's three weeks until that AKB game comes out for both the PSP and PSV.

So after looking at the release schedule, it looks to be an up and down thing from now until the end of the year, rather than a gradual increase. Don't ask me though what kind of heights we can expect. I have no idea other than that it is going to pale in comparison to the 3DS.


Atelier Totori won't reach 30k FW, imo. It won't do much for hardware.

I'm not too familiar with the series, but some people say that Fate/Stay will do 100k+ on Vita. If that's true I think it might be bigger than even AKB. The PS2 game did 130kFW and 180kLT.

Anyway, next week is sub 10k for sure, imo, but it may be the last.

Who says this?

 

and Totori will likely push 50k FW.

Genuinely surprised at all of the western numbers this week. Makes me really interested what kind of numbers we'll see from CoD. 250k possibly?

Medal of Honor: Warfighter & NFS: Most Wanted I genuinely didn't see charting at all, so 25k & 13k respectively seems good (perhaps my expectations were just too low!) MoH I guess I should have guessed from the previous game's sales, but NFS seems a decent increase (6k) over Hot Pursuit's first week.

The Liberation numbers seem impressive too. I was thinking 10-15k, not 25k. Already had a better FW than Bloodlines, can see it doing similar LTD numbers too (~50k, maybe a tiny bit more).

Glad the new colours pushed Vita up by a decent amount. Nothing mind blowing, but it helps at least. With Totori coming, might be able to sustain a couple of weeks of 'decent' (in perspective) sales into the holidays.  Perhaps Vita is FINALLY gonna have a decent week ww with Japan up 8-9k, CoD in the rest of the world.

Aside from that: continued impressive numbers from the 'other' AC (tehe), Xillia 2 is going to get nowhere near their target of 650k, and that fleeing from hunters game continues to be an absolute monster. Interesting week all round, really!

I assume you meant FW because you were that's what you were talking about earlier in your post. It does have a chance to push 100k lifetime.

Atelier Totori + pushing 50k... when the original did 53k on PS3
I don't think it's gonna happen... or at least very probably it won't happen, imo

MC:

03. / 00. [PS3] Atelier Totori: Alchemist of Arland 2 (Gust) - 53.871 / NEW

But it ended up doing over 200k lifetime with it's cheaper re-release. I think it'll be a scenario where it'll do 80% of its sales FW. ~50k FW, 75k lifetime.

 

Something like that.

I don't think it did.

From the 2010 Top 1000 media create:

114. [PS3] Atelier Totori: The Alchemist of Arland 2 (Gust) {2010.06.24} - 101.741 / 101.741

+ 2011

[PS3] Atelier Totori: The Alchemist of Arland 2[PlayStation 3 the Best] (Gust) {2011.05.26} - 4.660 / 28.437

I swear I don't know where VG chartz get those wonderful legs. 

Anyway, I just don't see this game doing 50k FW. It's too much for an updated port, imo. But hey, maybe you're right, let's wait and see. My prediction, at least so far, would be 25-30k, a little more than LoH Zero no Kizeki.

I'm basing all of this on VGC numbers since MC doesn't have a handy archive where you can instantly look up lifetime sales.
