Hello everyone,

I made a little web app that enables to estimate the first week Famitsu sales base on COMG orders (not yet pre-orders, but it will come)

If you are interested, check: https://chartsjapan.shinyapps.io/COMG_to_FAMITSU_predictor/

For example, here are the prediction for the releases of this week :

Title Hardware Publisher Release_Date COMG_Sales Famitsu_FW_Pred
Earth Defense Force 6 PS4 D3 Publisher 2022-08-25 96 63638
SD Gundam: Battle Alliance NSW Bandai Namco 2022-08-25 60 51006
SD Gundam: Battle Alliance PS4 Bandai Namco 2022-08-25 24 15910


The statistical model is based on a database that gathers every NSW, PS4 and PS5 games that sold more than 50k first week according to famitsu and the corresponding COMG! info (orders and pre-orders) since 2017. Of course, it is just predictions, so do not expect it to be 100% accurate, but I hope it is not to bad either. And I will try to improve it.

Tell me what you think about it,
Hope it helps!

That's really interesting. Let's see how close it is.
