Great opening for Luigi's Mansion! And the Vita is pretty healthy, too. It just shows consoles need games and an appropriate price point and they'll sell. What's the Vita lineup for april look like? Anyone know?


Literally nothing bar MURASUMA remake. Same for May, June, July...there's a couple small games but aside from FFX nothing until October time.


Hm that's bad then. I hope sales keep up somewhat, it's such a great device. Oh and I'm gonna appoint you my personal gaming dictionary know. No matter what I ask you always got the answer haha.

Yes! Luigi on top! I guess everyone who bought Luigi already had a 3ds though. No real hardware increase.



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 !

What's the next months look like?

There's FFX/X-II but I don't know the official release date.


Wait...that's literally it?

Huh. I guess they're counting on indies to fill up some of the software gaps then. Maybe they gave them extra incentive to even do so.

Yeah. That was my reaction. 

Should have spaced the games out to keep sales strong throughout the year. I don't see anything getting it near 40k until FF, but does that even have a release date?

It is up from the previous week, though.  Not by a whole lot, but it's still noticably up.

Well I forgot Valhalla Knights, but is that a big seller? The PSP game had a 45k opening, and the previous game before that was 22k...so a 50k opening seems possible. 

But that's late May. And it's the biggest thing I can think of. But yeah, hopefully sales stay above 20k, it deserves it. But so does the Wii U. Sometimes, these things don't work out as you'd hope...

5 vita games in the top 20 (top 16) This is a good sign.
In the last 3 weeks, vita install base has grown more than 10% and more than 15% since price drop.
Soul Sacrifice has sold to more than 10% of the install base.
Soul Sacrifice make up more than 5% of total Vita game sales, sitting at #4 of highest selling game, soon to overtake HotShotsGolf at #3.
Sold out index of running man. Should be able to hit 200k within upcoming 2-3 weeks. Possible supplantation of highest selling game in 2 months.

Toukiden , Muramasa, God Eater 2, Dragons Crown, Valhala nights, Gundam breaker< Definite summer releases

FFX, Project J verses, Mind 0 < No release dates yet but FFX could make summer 

Mind 0 



See Konami? Japan is demanding IGAvania, too.



Dat Luigi!



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

I actually think these are disappointing numbers for both Luigi's mansion and one piece 2. I was expecting figures in the 500k.

Good that the Vita is holding.
