How long before a 3DS game tops the chart?

Not looking likely in March, save for the last week, unless DQMJ2 Professional on DS prevents it, as there's Naruto and Baseball games for the 3DS which would be the biggest launches next to the DQ spinoff.

First week of April perhaps? One Piece could be big enough to top the charts.

If it doesn't happen in any of those weeks, unless some games show big legs, I won't expect it to happen until after E3 with Zelda OoT


Zelda isn't that big in Japan so wy would it be on top?


It's very frontloaded and it is big. Unless something bigger releases that week, it has a very big chance. Zelda games open up pretty well there.

Bets with Conegamer:

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.

NEVA!!!

In all seriousness, the first one didn't appeal to me, it'll take something strong to change my mind...

You can perform S&M on your female units.

If that doesn't convince you nothing will.

But still they fail to reach 1M. Twilight princess didn't have a big opening only like 148K it did.



Buying in 2015: Captain toad: treasure tracker,

mario maker

new 3ds

yoshi woolly world

zelda U

majora's mask 3d

Big enough to be N°1 for the week if there's nothing else huge released

Doubt it.  Sony doesn't really seem interested in developing Japanese games anymore.

It'll be One Piece week, it's easily the biggest title that week and there's not really anything beforehand with legs guaranteed to put it ahead.  I think One Piece 3DS could be huge though, even though it's a port.

Naruto 3DS will probably do okay, but not lead it's week (DQMJ2Pro will, for sure).  The 3DS baseball games will somewhat cannibalize each other upfront, and Konami's game will probably sell more on PS3/PSP 1st week anyway.

There's a slim chance Gundam or DOA might do it their week, but I think FFIV PSP will come out ahead.

Pro Baseball Spirits 2011 should top those two also.

Didn't know One Piece was a port, regardless it's the biggest game of that week without a doubt.
