Forums - Sales - Global HW UP June 23rd (update: SW UP)

Good week only for 3DS and PS3 and decent for PSP.
PSV will need a few tens game launches carefully spaced out between now and Xmas, with an intense calendar for BF and Xmas, obviously, but not too distant from each other also in the slowest periods, to be able to cut price not too early, that is more than one year from launch, without HW sales dropping too much. The mission is difficult, but not impossible, Sony must carefully choose its 1st party release dates to fill the biggest holes left by 3rd parties, but it must leave some big games for Xmas too.

I'm wondering what game gave the 3DS a 10K sales boost in Japan?

Pokémon.

The boost is so low... anybody here expected that.


I wouldn't call 10K a low boost also if its caused by a DS Pokemon game that's pretty good for the 3DS.



Updated with SW numbers.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Decent pokemon and Diablo 3 numbers.

P4 out of the top 30 next week?

I can't believe it: Pokémon are monters!!!

those Pokemon numbers are not very good for a Pokemn game, but its a good reminder of how popular the franchise is...
Vita back to its normal 50k per week
Mario tennis started as a bomb but its showing nice legs
Dragon quest showing amazing legs, but it was a shame it was supply constrained, still it will pass 1m

Good numbers for a dead DS/ new 3DS. Wonder if it will sell as much as the previous game lifetime.

 

On another note, Diablo 3 still selling very well a month and a half after release.



of course those are really great numbers for a game
but its Pokemon you know.....the previous game debuted at 2.5m....
