In Japan, it's different. This was FY2013, as it went from April 2013 to March 2014.

I see. Still the possibility is there as FY2016 was mentioned in the OP.

No, trestres is wrong. Nintendo's fiscal year that just ended was 2014, so now it's already FY2015 for them. Meanwhile, Sony counts their fiscal years differently, so the same timeframe in calendar terms is one fiscal year behind (Sony is in fiscal year 2014 right now).

Is that right? Thanks.

Then FY2016 is too soon for a homeconsole as it's next year and FY 2017 seems more reasonable.

Rolstoppable is wrong, I've been checking everywhere and the FY number is the same as the year when it started in Japan.
Nintendo called this period Fiscal Year ENDED March 2014. Which is actually FY 2013.

But anyway, this is simply nomenclature.

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.
