Batman sold 220k first week (according to vgchartz) and Rare Replay did maybe 20-25k or so?

Do you know the purpose of percentages?

Do you know that games that start lower usually drop less in percentage?

And this is why the Japanese 3rd party publishers should be more worried than they seem to be.

2014 games still listing yet nothing by Square, Sega, Capcom or Konami.

What have Square, Sega, Capcom and Konami actually released though?


Type-0 HD and Heavensward are the two big ones that spring to mind for Squeenix.  Resi Revelations 2 & Monster Hunter 4 for Capcom.  SEGA's interested in the west lie mainly on PC (Football Manager; Total War).

That drop is huge when you consider the initial sales.

Still happy to see it charting. Hope it did well enough to be successful. This is how collections should be done *cough GOW*.

LBP3 is an amazing game. The kids love it. I also have fun playing their creations. I wonder if they'll enjoy SMM as much.

So yeah, my point is they aren't really going to show up in the charts unless they actually release some big games.


I think both Type 0 and Revelations 2 were expected to do a lot better than they did.

Since nobody does platform breakdowns anymore.

PS4 - 16
X1 - 13
Wii U - 1

360 - 7
PS3 - 2
Wii - 0

3DS - 1
Vita - 0

No surprises, PS4 is winning this gen and 360 still going strong from last gen. Wii U, 3DS and Vita continue to struggle.

Type 0 HD did well. 

 


"Although we did not release major HD titles in FY2015/3, mid-sized titles did well, including “FINAL FANTASY TYPE-0 HD,” “KINGDOM HEARTS - HD 2.5 REMIX –,” and “DRAGON QUEST HEROES,” Repeat sales of previous titles, mainly download sales of full-length games, were strong in the West."

Atleast GOW III is a remaster and not a direct port of dated looking games.
