If anything MGSHD did extremely well for a franchise being milked to death. |
There was no MGS collection on 3DS.
There is no way to justify saying this version did extremely well.
The 3DS 'version' also came out later than the console versions. Not only this but the 3DS didn't even get a proper version as it was lacking MGS 2. It was also more expensive. Yes more expensive than both the Vita and console versions! So basically the 3DS version had far less content and was more expensive with the only advantage being coming out earlier (still later than consoles though) yet it still managed to sell better.
The vita version of MGS collection really should have done at least as well as the 3DS game. As it is it did okay considering it would have been a cheap port but still bad sales.
In general about this week I would say DQM holding very well. Likewise Persona holding well and better than expected given the userbase. Tokyo Jungle still a huge success story. Nice to see Dragon's Dogma and Lollipop Chainsaw holding on too.
The 3DS sales are kinda shocking. This weeks sales are entirely after the announcement of the 3DS XL yet there seems to have been no negative impact. If that holds true and the XL sales simply add on top it would be crazy.
The vita sales are good this week compared to normal (lower end of my estimate). However even these boosted sales are pretty bad and it now has a 2month gap ahead of it without a single big release. Next big thing being Miku. So it looks like it's going to be a VERY rough summer.
