| horuhe said: Yeah, I understand that's pretty sad no having 20k per week. However, we're talking about Japan. Things are not as they have usually been. The mobile market is what keeps alive the industry. You can't expect 20k baseline (except for 3DS), from any point of view. |
Mobile is keeping mobile alive, and certain studios (most of which aren't part of the dedicated hardware business), and while it is competing for "game time" of the consumer, it is almost a seperate industry. The 3DS is keeping the market alive, especially retail, while everything else is simply in one or another state of tire fire.
The fun thing is that the 3DS is keeping the market alive with a rather thin release schedule. I wonder how many more Disgaea 5-like releases its going to take before devs stop trying to salvage Sony's messes.
