Looks like they'll need the PS3 and PSP to carry them in Japan until a Japanese killer app comes out. I'm hoping western sales for the Vita aren't as poor.

NPD February will show us if the launch was hit or miss

NPD only lists US sales doesn't it?

NPD? You must be new here .

Wait 35,000 for FFXIII-2? the preview said 57,000 how can a supposed tracking site be this inaccurate?

Why even waste time with the preview when you can get proper numbers a couple days afterward.

Doesn't NPD rely on actual shipment figures as opposed to estimations?

Everything should go down drastically next week.


How drastically? Throw some figures at me Acevil

First I have to explain that January 1st effects the following days drastically, and that if you want the extremist form of the decline that will happen you need to look at 2009: 

Sales from the following week of that effect.

Week ending Jan 9th, 2011 (VGC numbers):

DS: 92,318
PS3: 58,585
Wii: 58,413
PSP: 32,133
X360: 4,373

I wonder if those numbers are correct, massive difference between this year...

Edit: Hmm maybe it's because of the Jan 1st thing AceDevil said.

Mario 3D Land is doing great. Definitely in with a shot of being the best selling 3D Mario Japan has ever seen.

Ps3 really good this week, should be 1st WW after 3DS.

3DS is beasting holly sh**, i cant believe how well they are still selling, probably this will be best year ever for a Nintendo Console in Japan.

Vita, well lets wait till proper Games hit the Console in Japan, i remember Psp sales explode when MH hit in 2010. For now its not looking good.

360, Microsoft better buy some Japanese Studios Next Gen and do alot more RPGs because 360 is absolutely dead in Japan. If this keeps up they will sell 3M next gen since 360 doubled Xbox 1 Numbers.

Psp, damn thats the only place in the world that psp keeps selling lol

Ps2, crazy beast wont ever stop.

Hard to beat DS numbers of 2006 (around 8 million consoles in 1 year!!!)..

Anyways 3DS is an absolute monster, huge numbers! PS3 did well to go up, Wii bounces a bit back but it's gonna be a long year till DQX releases :/

And Vita... will it be doing sub 15k weekly numbers till something releases? These numbers are not good at all. 

Software wise, the 3DS trio keep on chugging! And even Inazuma gave it 4 out of the top 5 incredible! I'm so glad for SM3D LAnd! What a game :) And MH3G looks like it will beat its 1.2 million projection unless it completely falls next week.

And amazingly Wii has a huge contribution to the top 20, yet can't really impose itself on the hardware side. It doesn't have a big seller on its side... And how disappointing is Zelda performing?! :( 

FF13-2 definitely now won't pass 800k without a re-release. Quite astonishing that it won't pass a million!!! 

And that's my analysis
