Salty about the decline in sales of the 3DS in Japan? Or the temporary bump?



The Xbox One back to reality. The recent temporary spikes can't hide the fact that it's a struggling platform. At least it's doing better than it used to, it had a baseline of 40k at some point. Several price cuts, deals, bundles, Tier 2 launches and big software releases later, and it seems like that has perhaps gone up to 60k (it was at 50k before Tier 2).

Good launch for the new 3DS and that makes it the first week this year that the PS4 has been outsold by anything. It will be interesting to see what effect the new HW has WW, and whether it can revitalise the handheld a little.

PS4... what can said, selling great as always. Adjustments have been made, but it still bugs me that it's well below 10m the week Sony announced 10m.

The others are in the "no comment" territory.

People celebrate about 3ds being #1 for a week after PS4 domination all year. Nobody said it was going to now outsell it from now on or something similar to that. You reply as though people did...

Then i say N3DS will raise up the WW baseline this year, which is true thanks to japan. You reply with YoY being Decline (despite it having nothing to do with my post)

If this isnt Salty, i dont kno what is XD

I just asked you a question about the 3DS sales in Japan and you labelled me as salty. Ok...



Around the Network

Weekly sales for the PS4 were like 200k but the lifetime sales went up 400k.

Wonder if they finally assigned the last of the sales from the 10 million announcement's missing 700k.

Either way, after the last few weeks of the Xbox One releasing in multiple countries, the PS4 in back to total domination.

Are their any other factors that could allow the Xbox One to overtake the PS4 for one week of the year?

Could the Master Chief Collection or Sunset Overdrive do it for exclusives? Or will Call of Duty bundles manage to push the Xbox One ahead?

Bayonetta 2 is coming out soon. Hopefully, it'll get the Wii U out of its slump for a good few weeks.

I really hope that will be the case, because those cuurent WiiU sales are just........ uh.

I know...

But the Wii U will eventually get a sale from me I didn't really need one before because my friend in college had one, but now that I've graduated and become a grad student, I should probably get one for my own.

I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment if you are expecting B2 to de-slump Wii U for a few weeks. It will be lucky to de-slump it for a week. Even if it causes sales outside of Japan to double for the week it will still be the thrid placed new gen home console for the week. The only thing it would do is put it ahead of PS3. The natural seasonal lift will start kicking in for Wii U which will make things look better compared to it's sales over the last few months. But I dooubt it will make things look better compared to PS4 or Xb one during this period. Your only real hope this year is SSB. I suggest you not place unfair expectations on Bayonetta 2.

Well they bumped September for the USA by 100K so that's half the adjustment right there.

Probably the first time something outsells PS4 this year? I may be wrong though. I'm more concerned about Driveclub though and to see how metacritic will affect its sales.

I think it will have a small, almost insignificant effect on the sales of Driveclub. Why believe a review when you can check it out for yourself once the PS+ version releases? And if the Gaf thread is anything to go by, there will be even more gamers wondering what the hell the reviewers were on about.


I do think a high meta would keep the game selling higher numbers, it's the way it works nowadays. But I hope the PS+ Edition will make people buy it digitaly. It still may get good digital sales.



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

Driveclub disappointing sales, but is normal with the bad review that has been
