This thread seems somewhat quieter to the last few. Why is this?

Also, pretty hefty falls for Vita and SS (I said 45k and 70k for them) and Wii U still going down but pretty much level now. DQX releases in a couple weeks so hopefully that'll help sales.

Next week:

3DS- 120k
Vita- 30k

It seems to me that you don't know what you are talking about. Check the second weeks of other big Vita games. SS did good. 70k second week? LOL.

It was halving the sales of that week, and seeing it just below Animal Crossing gave me hope it'd be in the 50-60k range (which still would have been great), so such a hefty fall was a surprise.

But with games that do not have broad mainstream appeal, you expect a 80% drop and hope for legs afterwards. The "hefty fall" is only due to your ignorance of the market. Animal Crossing is a anolmaly that publishers can only hope to have once. It's incredible how well it's selling, and should never be used as a barometer or example for anything other than Animal Crossing. It's just dumb to justify your claim on a game like Soul Sacrifice which by virtue of itself its content, can never achieve that level of success.
