Sony are going to have to announce a lot of stuff on Friday to stop the Vita dropping below the 10k barrier next week, and even then it might not have an immediate impact.

early reports said that it was 90% for the first shipments (650K first day).  700K shipments for the first week, 90% above?? I hope others will do the math.

Just like in my thread. It is the second highest in debut sales beating FF XIII-2. If one piece will have amazing legs then it could be the 2nd best selling PS3 game or the 2nd million seller.

[PS3] Final Fantasy XIII (Square Enix) - 1,906,000 
[PS3] Resident Evil 5 (Capcom) - 910,000 
[PS3] Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (Konami) - 896,000 
[PS3] Final Fantasy XIII-2 (Square Enix) - 798,000 
[PS3] Gran Turismo 5 (SCE) - 642,000 
[PS3] Tales of Xillia (Bandai Namco) - 632,000 
[PS3] Yakuza 3 (SEGA) - 598,000 
[PS3] Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds (SCE) - 598,000 
[PS3] Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage (Koei) - 564,000 
[PS3] Yakuza 4 (SEGA) - 558,000 
[PS3] Gran Turismo 5: Prologue (SCE) - 534,000

So if you put onepiece on the list. It's already on the fifth spot.

Yeah. usually I would say it doesn't reach million with this kind of opening on PS3 but with so high sell trough it could have maybe sold even more during this first week if it had  bigger shipment so the legs could be better than usual. For example as FF XIII-2 first shipment was 850k units but it only sold 605k so everyone knew it won't make it to the million. We shall see with this one.


Agree and usually the PS3 titles are very frontloaded and the used market is also an issue in Japan. The 3rd shipments also according to some retailers. They will get the 3rd shipments this march 9 so a lot of potential sales could be gone to the used sales.

PS3: great release!!! Even though this game looks terrible (you know it's true) One Piece is such a wonderful property (simply the best) and deserves that and more!

The game looks good for me... I'm waiting a western release.

Edit - Famitsu give 9, 9, 9, 9 = 36 ... the game is not terrible confirmed.


Famitsu...

And I said it looks terrible, not plays terrible - but it's a brawler, I don't expect something great.



Great PS3 sales boosted by One Piece. Was expected though, One Piece has been so big in Japan for a while now. Often feels like half of the UFO catchers are just One Piece -_-

Vita is just dreadful. It was only 24 people away from being sub 10k, which I can only imagine will happen next week and perhaps carry on for a while as well. Looking at the release list it seems entirely possible to last for over a month!

Harvest Moon and Theatrhythm both had good weeks. Looks like Theatrhythm (I hate typing that name) will be bouncing up and down till supply is sorted.



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.

Amazing One Piece and PS3 numbers. I just started watching One Piece under my gf's request, I heard it's a great series.

Vita needs games Japanese people like.

3DS doing great.

I'm a bit suprised Ethomaz that you have said anything about GT5 being on the 20th place!!! 0_o

One piece destroyed. Good god, those are amazing sales. It isn't my kind of game but that's pretty awesome. Also, big boost on the PS3, PSP holding up and the Vita is still too low.

Wow @ One-Piece. I was expecting 500-550k, and I thought that was too high...

Nice expected boost for PS3, surprised it didn't beat the 3DS. On the other hand, Vita slips further and further behind in Japan and will likely drop below 10k very soon. Hopefully this form won't be mirrored everywhere else, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.

And 360



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I swear I've never heard of One-Piece before - since when was this such a huge franchise? o.o

~~~~ Mario Kart 8 drove far past my expectations! Never again will I doubt the wheels of a Monster Franchise! :0 ~~~~

Do we finally have a good quality One Piece videogame? Been waiting too long. The game moves hardware that's for sure.
