Is it just me or are sales kinda bad this week?

Very bad. All systems combined sold just a bit over 50k and software is probably just around 100k.

I'm betting the PS3 alone managed to beat those numbers in 2009.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Wii U Sales are not their biggest problem at the moment, 3DS numbers are.  

Lol wtf? The 3DS has already sold over 20million beating the PSP. While the closest one is the PSV which is at 4-5mil this gen! Im worried if none of them can reach half of it. 

What? I'm not talking about the lifetime sales nor which console/handheld is doing better. I'm worried about their profit. 3DS number are slowing down. The New 3DS gave them a boost, but the numbers are down from last year.



Ps4 on top :)



Wii U must of gotten a shipment, a dramatic increase this week, shortages over

Aren't JRPGs, Japanese RPGs? XD. If that's the definition, Pokémon would be definitely a JRPG! Though I definitely say it's just "Pokémon".

It is true, I consider Dark Souls 3 and Pokémon as a JRPG.

But I don't conisder Pokémon, and yokai watch as the same type of JRPGs. Most JRPGs are story driven and have 1-10 characters at a time in gameplay. In Pokémon you can have 100s in gameplay.

After selling over 20mil and after 5 years you still think it will go up in 2016 compared to 2015? 

 

Wow! You must've lots of Hope for the 3ds! 

 

And duh! We are nearing to the end of the 3DS and Wii U life! Its supposed to go down!

Sigh can't wait for the incoming discussion about if the PS4 or the 3DS is the "current weekly king of Japan" or whatever the fuck they're gonna call it now... /s

 

You must have been dissapointed!  This week's topic is about "What the fuck are JRPGs!" and "Is pokemon a JRPG!" 

 

This issue is like whether Avatar is a Cartoon or an Anime! Or if Anime are also cartoons! 



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Sales are starting to look dire



Star ocean is doing terribly. Looks like The Last hope 360 version will have a better Japan LTD than this one. I guess SO4's name is really proving prophetic. Unless the West somehow saves it's sales I'm guessing this is the death of the franchise.

And SE shat on it's own game, for some reason, for stirring up undie-gate. Though ultimately I doubt that has much to do with the reason why the game is doing poorly.
