Forums - Sales Discussion - Japan Sales Week 39, 2014 (September 22 - 28)

Ps4 hasn't stabilized yet.. it needs another 2 weeks of drops for it to stabilize. Remember when MK8 hit? The Wii U was thought to have stabilized at 10k-9k but it dropped lower. This 10k-9k lasted quite a lot of weeks. It will be about a month due to the bundle boost before it hits its new baseline. It will be around 7k though. (if its lucky).

Wii U ahead again hurray! So does anyone have Japan sales for the fiscal year? April 2014-present?

Very Nice for LoH sen no kiseki! lol I was sure that DR:AE will do better than it but looks like LoH first week was realy big. Vita HW is almost 3 times bigger compare to last year (17k vs 6k) but the HW boost is still quite small for 2 big releases

MK8/WiiU was thought to be a baseline because it stayed there for a while, the PS4/Bundle/Destiny has been dropping fast. According to Famitsu its (PS4) already back down to 7k. Next week it may well be back to its 5-6k usuals.

Fatal Frame did pretty good.

Now what did bad is Bayonetta 2.

How is selling less than 30K opening weak "pretty good'' for any game? Both did horribly..


FF did do good, look at all the previous entries, they must be satisfied with these numbers as the best openings were 42k (out of over 5 games)

There has been 5 Fatal frames and the best it ever did on a larger install base was 42k. Now we have 30k on the Wii U of all consoles.

 

Yeah Fatal Frame did pretty good.

Most defence was anchored around the fact that there were only two days worth of sales (which a lot of people incorrectly interpreted as one day's worth of sales).

Here are some:

Wow, there were a lot! I've always seen that "x days" as a trollish argument, can't beleive people do belive it affects FW sales.

Thanks.


So many people dont know how sales work, thats why most prédictions are wrong



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Looks like Smash ought to have sold 1.5m+ by now then, including digital.

So the 3DS version alone is selling faster than Brawl in Japan.


To be fair, the 3DS currently has a larger installbase in Japan than the Wii got ltd.

It balances out for Nintendo. They charge much less for a copy of the game on handhelds vs console.
