Forums - Sales Discussion - Media Create/Famitsu week ending Jul 26th

PS4 and Wii U both surpassed 2014's YTD numbers this week according to Media Create.

Splatoon should become a million seller in Japan alone at this rate.



Around the Network

3DS down 36% versus the same week last year
Wii U up 16% versus the same week last year
Vita down 18% versus the same werk last year
PS4 up 208% versus the same week last year.

Not YTD! Just comparing it to the same week last year.

Good week for PS Vita and PS4 hardware!
Minecraft is now at 260k+ retail only and it continues great. In 4 weeks 300k+ retail only!!!
Taiko Drum Master, don't know what to say. I expected 130k+ for the game but it looks not possible anymore!
God Eater 2: Rage Burst doing good thanks the anime. I want this game to sell 350k+!!!
Batman has a very nice 2nd week. Hope that it continues good.
Great legs from The Witcher 3!!! Deserved!!!

Question: Did the holidays in Japan already start?

School holidays started this week. A few games aimed to children increased this week.

But the true Summer Holiday is Obon, week 33 (Aug 10th - 16th). We can expect a Golden Week boost this week.

That said, is more a Nintendo week. For Playstation Minecraft and Taiko should do well, not the rest.

Used the week after apparently, all the other figures should be fine, as they sold about the same in both those weeks.

Wii U is now only down 200 units, I would say it would be up YoY next week however with a new bundle announcement Wii U sales usually drop hard so who knows... http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=203794&page=1#

Up ~200 units.

PS4 up ~10k units.



PS4 is trending yet over 150% ahead last year in weekly basis.

That means my 1.5m prediction looks more and more underestimated... I'm happy to eat that crow.

It is already up YoY 10k and it will be close to 100k before the next big release happens (MGSV).



What is going on with this game, Super Run For Money Tousouchuu Atsumare! Saikyou no Tousou Monotachi

week 28: 13,571 (release)
week 29: 4,948
week 30: 6,757

Could this be a huge sleeper or did it go to bargain bin?



I cannot imagine toilet-free life.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.

Happy to see Wii U is still maintaining 10k+. Yoshi is doing okay, and Splatoon is excellent as always.

3DS has a new million seller with Yokai Watch Busters! It should also have a really good week next week with Animal Crossing.

I've just come back from my vacation and Splatoon still hasn't slowed down? Consider me impressed.
