Another week until Splatoon 2 arrives, next week is Splatfest so I expecting 30k+ week, and than Splatoon 2 launch and we will see how many Switch units Nintendo prepared. :)

Can't sell 30k if you don't stock 30k.

Of Course, but I think they will be able to ship 30k+ just week before Splatoon 2 launch for Splatoon fest (same like they did last time).

Ps4 putting together a 3 week we winstreak. What a pleasant surprise!

Disappointed with Gundam although it gives ps4 top spot.

Next week we have FF12 and the cheaper 2DS launching. Should shift a few models, maybe 3DS will be back to #1. Depends on ps4 and switch too.

From Hiska-san PS3 vs PS4. 

 

This is a battle for the ages.  The gap is now down to ~9k. Going by ps3 sales,  next week it could be a gap of 1k in favour of the ps4. 

 

Then the following week ps4 will have a chance to beat the ps3 to 5m by 1 week. If not it'll have to settle with crossing it the same week.

We are three weeks away from DQXI, and, as you say, next week PS4 should "resist" against PS3 (although by a narrow margin), so PS4 will probably keep over PS3 at least for the next months.

Next few weeks will be quite interesting:
-next week, 2DS XL launch
-week after, Splatoon 2 launch
-week after, DQ11 launch

PS4 is doing pretty well and the pro is starting to take off slowly in Japan. It's almost at 1:4.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

The PS4's doing really well in a country where consoles are dead.

A month ago people thought ARMS would flop and there you have it, holding like a champion

I don't think anyone thought that when the Switch library is like it is.

Not good for PS4. Gundam underperformed and barely had any effect on hardware.

Splatoon 2 is going to be huge. Wouldn't be surprised if it sells some 200k+ Switches at launch week. The DQXI week will be even more interesting with all 3 major consoles selling like there is no tomorrow. It sucks that the Japanese only have significant interest in a handful of IPs, half of which belong to Nintendo. How I wish Sony gave a fuck about their Japanese studios like in the PS1 days.

I would be

No, a lot of people thought it would flop.  You just weren't paying attention. 

And again with this incredibly persisten myth that fewer games=more sales regardless of quality.  This. is. demonstrably. false.
