Even thought the PSP is doing great in Japan and is a terrific handheld, I see Nintendo always being the King of Handhelds for a VERY long time.
I haven't done this awhile, but here's the schedules for each system through the spring... possible 100k plus sellers bolded...
Nintendo 3DS
PSP
Nintendo DS
PlayStation 3
Xbox 360
Wii
PlayStation 2
Nice 3DS numbers! Userbase now over 580k after only 2 weeks!
Nice hold for many of the 3DS games as well; especially Layton, Nintendogs/cats and Samurai Warriors.
KZ3 dropped quite a bit. When will it be able to pass KZ2's week one sales (42k)?
DS still trucking along as well with about 17k sales. (combined DSi/LL/DSL)

Me since the games were revealed, the fanboys since E3."

I blame Pokemon.
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Also looks like D4 won't be getting anywhere near the 200k investors projected. I wonder how long NIS can last at this rate? |
Wonder what the staff numbers are like compared to a company like Gust that's perfectly happy with 80k lifetime sales in Japan.
Also I don't think it's fair to start talking about the D4 sales like it's a dissapointment because some investors bought stocks based off faulty assumptions. It is doing better than D3 and I highly doubt NIS had the same expectations as those investors, but I guess the only way to know one way or another if this is what NIS needed to sell would be to get one of those powerpoints like Atlus puts out giving their expected and actual sales numbers.

Since it's the highest selling console in Japan for the gen? I'm obviously not talking about handheld devices. :S |
Japan's market pretty much is handhelds now. Unlike previous gens, which supported both high selling home consoles (FC, SFC, PS, PS2) and high selling portable consoles (GB, GBA), this gen's gone almost entirely handheld (DS & PSP going strong), with all the consoles being varying degrees of failures.
Calling Wii a "market leader" is borderline deceptive imo. It's more like a novelty platform that took off for a brief while. PS3's pretty much been a (very expensive) failure and 360's like an abortion (though still at least an improvement from last gen).
HAHA I originally read the 3DS to be 360 and I was like wtf

I'll admit I'm not a Pokemon fan, but more power to its fans.

No idea if this is 100% correct but it says 99 employees.
