Doesn't Dengeki also give hardware?



Don't forget that Xenoblade X was available for purchase from Japanese eShop from february, 6th. So it's like 3 full months of sales till official release. It stayed high in charts, and #1 even now: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/software/ranking.html I think with digital it sold more than 100,000 during official launch. This is pretty good w/ Wii U userbase, Nintendo's decision NOT to promote game on TV, etc etc in mind. I'm surprised, I must say. Bloodborne sold 150K FW in Japan, and it was heavily advertised.

I'm guessing digital for Bloodborne doesn't count for you.

Holy ****! Fire Emblem Heaven, WTF is going on in Japan???

 

Also we need Digital #s! It could be as little as 2-3k, maybe 5k but i think it be no more than 10k. Wish we get numbers

@TheGoldenBoy, Bloodborne wasn't available for purchase in Japan like three months before release. In one week or a few weeks japanese digital sales on consoles are poor.

@tbone51, Famitsu will unveil digital sales in monthly report (Famitsu publishes them like from december, 2013), so... we just should wait T_T I think it did more than 10K cuz this 3 months thing. But even in retail it sold pretty good all things considered.



How did X make any money?



When will their be a hw update?



If this includes the bundle, it's below expectations, especially the expectations of a few specific users. (Talking about XCX of course).

Also looks like people overestimated golden week.

3DS 26.976 
Wii U 21.016 
PS4 20.668
