Almost everything about Japanese game sales these days is depressing.
I worry about the industry as a whole. We are on the verge of some serios changes to it all over the next ten years I think


not mobile games revenue :D

Japan is the new growth market for western games!

This may have been written tongue in cheek, but I think there's a lot of truth to it. Western games are moving beyond niche.

Uitcha shows itself nicely! Also 2 more weeks, and MK8 will be a Japan million seller. Which is incredible feat this gen.


*Retail,because with digital sales included,it's been a while since it passed 1m!:P:P:P:P:P:P

The Witcher 3 numbers are very good (as expected).
Minecraft legs = best legs.
Horrible hardware numbers. At least PS4 and Vita are the best selling standalone consoles.


Are you really going to keep separating 3DS #s like this every week now? :-/



MK8 LEGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cant wait for Next Week!

Also, I wonder how long till the top 30 drops below 1k. That would be depressing.

Krezzie...Put them,come on it's not good omitting them...


You do know that I'm not doing it on purpose right?  I can't put it in from 4gamer because VGChartz destroys the formatting so you can't even see what the games are.

I have to wait for Siliconera/Gematsu to upload the numbers.  I would've done it sooner but I've been in work and haven't had chance (I haven't actually had chance to even read the rankings yet because I was too busy uploading them and then had to deal with some stuff here).

So less of this kind of comment, please.

I said what I said with geniality and I think you answered me with hostility(At least this what I feel)...Well done! :(

 Anyway,copy-paste them from gaf...
Also you said  plain,''I'm not falling of putting media create software'',that's misunderstandable,you should have point out the problem and that you're planning to put them later from another source,with the way you writed that,I thought that you're not going to put them at all...

I apologize if I what I pointed out annoyed you,I didn't have that intent...Forgive me!

I made this thread (and that comment) before the GAF thread was uploaded, and then I had to go into an hour interview so haven't had chance to upload them until now.

And I've moaned about VGC's formatting in at least 3 weeks worth of Media Create threads.

It's not a big deal, and it's fine.  I'm sorry for coming across as hostile.  It's just, you're not the first person to moan when the numbers aren't uploaded perfectly, but it takes time to do with the crappy formatting that VGC has lately which is completely beyond my control.



really depressing HW sales for home consoles. even the handhelds are in minimum state due to Japanese mobile gaming is continue to rise.

good number for Witcher 3 in Japan. There should be something else to do in Japan to integrate mobile on home and handheld consoles.
