Overall a very nice week.
Great hold from PS4 and PS Vita, PS Vita is even up from last week!!!
I really hope that PS Vita will have better holiday weeks this year with God Eater and Gundam.
Minecraft is surprisingly up from last week too and now at 367k+!!!
Expected a bigger drop from Tokyo Xanadu, so this is good too.

Nice, was kinda worried for Blanc but a solid 20k opening isnt too bad.

Blanc? Worst CPU? Here's your Guaranteed Reply™ .

To be fair to Blanc, who is certainly not worst CPU - but not the best, either, her game is kind of out of the traditional genres Neptunia as a whole goes by. That, and didn't she actually win the character poll for this game?

Mind you, I honestly think that a game with Blanc in it should've been put on some - I don't know - Nintendo platform? But, hey, Neptunia didn't start on the Dreamcast, so I guess I'll let it slide.

ps4 held up pretty good again.

Nice week all around, even though nothing crazy released.
The WiiU is still above 10k and well on track towards not only beating 2014, but 2013 as well. Lets Hope Nintendo actually gives us a direct and some good deals to go with the holydays.

We've been on an over four months silent treatment by now, it's getting unnerving. You can't build a close, well 'direct' relationship with your consumer base and then just retreat from that. I get that Iwatas death shell shocked them, but it's time we see some positive signs.

On another note, if my numbers are correct then Super Mario Maker is tracking behind both Mario Kart and Splatoon in LTD with launches aligned, but shows slightly better legs than Mario Kart in the same timeframe. It might catch up to it, but I doubt it at this point. If it does, it'll take significantly longer than 18 weeks though, since it's legs, while admirable, are nowhere near as crazy as Splatoons. Both should have a good holyday boost though.

I just find her boring, she's definitely my least favourite of the 4 main CPU's (Vert > Noire > Neptune > Blanc).  I believe she did win the character poll for this though.

As for Neptunia on Nintendo platforms - I though Neptunia U being on Vita was the biggest tease that this is never going to happen.  Seriously though, I know they sell in small quantities but I'd imagine it'd be even smaller on WiiU/3DS - they sell to a pre-existing dedicated fanbase on PS platforms and seem fine with that.

It's not hard to argue Blanc as worst CPU, but I actually liked the entire cast.

That said, it sold pretty poorly for a Neptunia game. I guess that's what they get for letting a character poll decide the main character (that and the lazy design decision to make it like HDN U).

Eh, to each his own. I personally like Vert the least and Neptune the most, with Noire barely edging out Blanc. I can't really say much, though, seeing how NISA handled the localization...and, yeah, maybe Nintendo should target a fanservice-friendly platform. I personally want to look at Neptune's ass...ets and specifications in 3D and stare at Blanc's flat...motherboard and chipset in full 3D - thigh I can't imagine there's any benefit to the latter!

Now, to make this related to the sales figures...

Splatoon reaching 750k in physical sales by the end of the month is a lock. It should sell 70-80k in November with an update, and move 150k+ in December - not counting the New Year week. And, by then, it should be oh so close to taking away the top-selling title on Wii U from NSMBU...more well-deserved than that title, that's for sure.

Blanc's lack of popularity became its own source of moderate popularity, fans like to make fun of her. Kinda like Nepgear but for different reasons. She grew on me over time too.. Still prefer Neptune and Noire of course.
