What's up with 3DS in America's? I think something is understracked. Fire Emblem had 170,000 pre-orders and only opened up to 200,000 sales, now crawling to 300,000 in Americas.
20,000 systems a week is half of what it did before the major adjustment a couple weeks back, and it's half of what it did in 2012 for the equivalent week. How are 3DS sales down Year on Year?

Don't pay much attention to the pre-order chart, is the long and short of the answer to this. It's notoriously bad at the best of times, but even worse at tracking pre-orders of niche genres (such as JRPG's).
I presume the current sales trend is because of January's NPD numbers. We'll be getting the February figures in about a week, so just wait until then to see if we've been undertracking or not. I suspect Fire Emblem might end up being overtracked like Ni No Kuni was, but we'll see. |
How can it possibly be overtracked. We don't even have its massive digital sales. If anything fire emblem is 200k or so undertracked
