SS sold 92k single and 22k double copies...

140k combined?

Your math is terrible. 114k combined.

What's the second game included in the double pack?

The double pack contains 2 copies of Soul Sacrifice for a big discount (4000 yen cheaper than buying 2 singles).

In Japan hunting games are a social activity to play with friends in person. The double pack lets 2 friends get together and save money.

lol...I guess if I were a Vita fan, I would be gloating too. It's just too bad I don't see this extending more past a couple of weeks. FACT: 3DS still beats Vita nearly 10:1 in Japan, and it'll take a lot more than a week or two of the system selling this well before it can be considered a non-failure in my book!!!

So for now the Wii U is also a failure in your book? I mean, it has been trailing behind the Gamecube, even... 


Well, we have to give it at least a year before declaring that right?  I mean it's right behind Vita in overall sales with less than 4 months sales vs 15 months for the Vita!!! But yeah right now it is doing Vita type sales numbers at the moment (surprised it isn't doing worse with a dirage of original titles and actual releases since launch--what was the latest software released since dec12' anyways?) so take that as you will.  Overall it's hard to justify Vita as a success overall as it is just not a viable system in terms of software content and sales.

Oh, so if you know a friend wants the game, you can buy a double pack.

So then Soul Sacrifice sold 136k, that's good!

However Famatsu has SS at 105k and the double pack isn't on their list, while Media create has the above #.

Either way, I hope this game is good, it looks to me like the first good reason to buy a PSV after Uncharted.

crazy stuff



Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !

1.its not a dead handheld 2. its not an accomplishment, its like if ps3 had no games in 3 weeks and wii u has Metroid game+DK with a price cut and then wii u beats it by 2-5k. for just ONE WEEK. That isn't an accomplishment, wat is an accomplishment is how well SS sold. I give it to that impressive number including vita #s but just cause it beat 3DS by 2k or 5k is jus plain silly. Jus sayin

PSV outselling 3DS is like 360 outselling PS3 in Japan... think a little about.

SS did less than I expected but not too less..

I remember when the 360 outsold the ps3 in Japan. It happened several times actually, still didn't change the results of the ps3>>>>>>>360 in Japan. It's the same situation as the psv outselling the 3ds except it's only happened one time and not several like the 360/ps3.

It was a time when all 360 fans rejoiced too. Some weeks it was above the Wii too.

Preposterous.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Courtesy of Japan:

The player's name is Iwacchi (Iwata), and the Salvation option is replaced with "Ambassador" lol.

That would be me. I was wrong, you were right.
