Where's Ryng Totu? PS4 has been giving him sleepless nights ever since he predicted sub 20k sales since like April lol.

Also Idolmasters should come to the West! Is Platinum Stars part of the main series? What are the differences?

Haha!  

It dropped to 19.5k once since he predicted it would get close to 10k. At least he can cling on to that one week!! 

 

Ryng_Tolu is generally positive with regards Playstation but I'm glad the ps4 is proving a lot of people wrong.  Sony showing you can have a successful home console in Japan for 8+ years for the 4th time in a row.  

 

They really are the King's of HC in Japan. 

If you use your low standard then yeah. It is just like you saying all the time  that Tales of Berseria is beasting on the COMG charts while reality it is far behind. 

Tales of Zestiria (PS3) 17 dayf left......310pt

Tales of Berseria (PS3+PS4)17 dayf left......236pt

The thing is, it potentially sells les than what Zesteria did and you would call it great sales and are happy that it proves people wrong.

Wut? Are you imagining numbers? Do you have any data for that 100k claim? PS4 is a lot higher...

Check on the famitsu chart at number 29.

[PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition (Sony Computer Entertainment) {2015.03.19} (¥2.592) - 36.151 / NEW 
[WIU] Minecraft: Wii U Edition (Microsoft Game Studios) {2016.06.23} (¥3.600) - 22.589 / NEW 
[PS4] Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition (Sony Computer Entertainment) {2015.12.03} (¥2.592) - 4.630 / NEW 


This is only retail. What about PSN sales? Minecraft was available on PS4 digitally in Japan since ages.



What happened with Puzzles and Dragons? The last one sold really well over there. And even though we have a Youkai 3 selling massive numbers, it barely moved hardware. The 3DS has really reach an oversaturation point, Nintendo needs the NX badly.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

You haven't noticed that we lowered the standards awhile ago? People compare Ps4 to Ps3 sale life as indication that it is successful, when the ps3 had horrible first two years and was not the market leader at any point, and Ps4 is barely above it and is about to become market leader. 



 

I remember that KyleeStrutt used to make monthly editions of Japan's Best Sellers. We haven't gotten one since May, did something happen?

I know but talking about  PS4 sales and people proving wrong while it is doing worse than people expected before the PS4 released in Japan makes no sense. We see a market with a lot of gamesequels fail to do better than their prequels some expected others are surprising like Tales so far is surprinsing for me. From games to come on PS4 it looks like only Persona beat will beat its prequels. It is troublesome.

Why should Tales of Berseria outsell Zestiria?



Mario Maker falling out of the charts a few weeks back so close to a million is pretty torterous.
I keep wondering if it hit it already or if it's still creeping closer at a snails pace.

I'm glad to see Ace Attorney still selling, but seeing that it will probably never even hit 300k in Japan makes me a sad bunny.

Yokai Watch 3 is depressing to see. Level 5 will probably never learn not to milk their franchises to death.

Should be more easy to do so with two platforms but looks like it will sell significantly less a franchise that deserves to sell more but also need to start sell better. Tales of fans start to complain that they are rushing the games or making them with less budget not good for the future franchise. I have high expactions about Berseria they need to redeem themself.






No way Berseria can sell more than Zestiria after how much damage the last one did to the franchise.
