5 X360 games, wow. :P

 

Woah. Now that you mention it, that is crazy. That's a huge infinity percent more games in the chart than Wii U, and led to a massive ~23% increase in X360 hardware sales. 


 

Massive eh.

Honestly though, I'm suprised X360 has a SW attach ratio of 7.3 in Japan, not too shabby.

Yeh, the 360 seems to have a niche but very dedicated market in Japan.

So the Vita is stabilizing to a level of 15K to 20K. Probably not what Sony was hoping for considering the 3DS is still outselling them by an average of 3 to 1 in Japan, but better than the 7 to 9 K a week it was at. In regards to the Wii U, Nintendo better get their act together soon, or I'm not seeing a comeback happening.

Moving on, my hope is that Luigi's Mansion 2: Dark Moon's initial success and subsequent sturdy legs will bring more Luigi games in the future. Probably alone on this, but I've almost always preferred Luigi to Mario.



They can't be stopped...

Wii U sold 11 units more than last weak-skyrocketing

360 sold 25% more than last weak-skyrocketing x2

 

and the most amazing thing:three 360 games in the top 30.

 

i wish people in japan would buy more western games:bioshock/tomb raider numbers really dissappointing for goid games.

Very interesting. I think all 3 did well. Especially since the new Dragon's Dogma is really an enhanced re-release of the game + DLC.

Decent week, nothing too special. I wonder how much AC will be boosted with.

Sony is trying to ship Vita to the stores but we can't know how much is the new Vita avg. sales per week.

This week can be only a big jump in sales for these that couldn't buy it in the last two weeks or even a shortages small than the latest weeks.

Needs more to really make any assumption.

In time 21k is pretty good.
