Lots of elephants in the room this week.

PS4 YTD already 2x last years number
Vita YTD almost equal to last years (and more if you use constant weeks), I thought handhelds were not supposed to rise in their fifth year in Japan?
PSV outsold the 3DS in a week for the first time in like 20 years.
Minecraft PSV +3% for the prior week.
Wii U below 10k, even with a new game release
Splatoon out of the top 10

What Means "YTD" ?.

Welp, I expected more from Dragon Quest Builders... but I guess it will have good legs, so we need to wait and see.

Btw, crazy Vita numbers. Is it due to DQB release? Anyway, amazing results for it and PS4. Wii U disappointed this week, I expected it to stay above 10k especially with Mario Tennis releasing this week.

PS: Notice how Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival is stealthy selling. Soon it will go from bomb to decent success. That's not really cool. lol

How much were you expecting and why? Looking at the only real predictors we have, it outdid all of  them...

I was expecting 500k FW combined (all versions). I think it did 350k or something. But I guess legs will do it... I'm sure this game will easily hit 1m.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Right but it hasn't been 5 years. So a system getting software in its 5th year to me strictly has to be after its been 5 years.

A PS4 getting a game in its 2nd month is just that: 2 months not 1 year. Maybe I am too literal.

I've tried to keep up with releases that are above 50k but I may have missed some. Already there's some 2016 releases.

 

As far as this weeks sales go, DQB had a much better opening than YSO had me thinking it would do. Vita hardware also did more than I was expecting. I thought it would do about 30k considering that's usually what it does when there's a LE console (like Toukiden and P4DAN).

If DQB can manage to pass 400k on Vita alone (maybe 800k combined) I'd consider that a success as far as legs go becasue I'm not 100% sure it will have much legs at all.

That would be it's 6th year.  Do keep up! Anyway the point is so many people said the vita would be way down in 2015 and die in 2016. They were so wrong.

The Vita, her revival, Vita means li...nevermind
I thought there would be a bigger difference between the Vita version and the PS4 version of Dragon Quest Builders.
Good PS4 numbers
The Wii U keeps falling apart...
