Any Japanese game that isn't Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil or Gran Turismo is niche foo! :P

Please read the OT .

 



That's Nioh and TLG over a million this week. Just shows you can't avoid Playstation this gen. It's the king of consoles in terms of software sales.

Sony exclusives do sell pretty decent this gen. Even niche games break the million mark.

I don't really think a 1.8% attach ratio is all that impressive though. The only Sony exclusive that has sold more than 2 million copies is Uncharted.

Very impressive. It is also yet another Japanese title that did significantly better in the West than at home.



Is 1 million units considered Niche?

Ofcourse. TLG sold less than 2% of a heavily milked city shooter and less than 1% of some basic looking block game where you even have to build stuff yourself. Anything that sells to less than 10% of the userbase is ultra niche, and TLG didn't manage to break 2%. It shouldn't even be considered niche at that level, statistical noise more like.
