Gran Turismo 5... over 12k.

Sony needs to get some solid release dates on upcoming titles and hype them massively. Nintendo has done well on this front with the 3DS and Sony needs to do the same with the Vita.



 

 

I think the vita sales are good considering there is no popular Japanese games released for it yet (monster hunter style popular). I thought it would be selling ~4k per week at his stage tbh.

I don't understand- is Love Plus a big franchise or something? I've never heard of it until now.. am I missing out? xD


Love plus isn't a big franchise however it has an EXTREMELY dedicated fanbase. The first game opened at 46k but ended up at 260k which is very good legs for a Japanese title. It then got an upgraded version. Not a sequel mind you simply a reworking of the same game with some added bits. That opened to 97k first week and also ended up at 230k. Basically a pretty substantial amount of the userbase bought the game over again.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if New Love Plus managed to open at around 100k first week and ended up around 250k. 



Turkish says and I'm allowed to quote that: Uncharted 3 and God Of War 3 look better than Unreal Engine 4 games will or the tech demo does. Also the Naughty Dog PS3 ENGINE PLAYS better than the UE4 ENGINE.

Can you find me the lowest PSP sales for a week, and what is PS3 8 week total.



 

Vita is almost dead in Japan, even with a game like Gravity Daze out there. Next week vita will be lower than 10k?

Thanks... the drop is for all (3DS and Vita) but the difference is bigger in PSP/Vita comparision.

Seems like no handheld will sell like the predecessor in Japan... I expect that change soon.
