Forums - Sales - Japan sales week 36: Famitsu & Media-create (post Hatsune Miku week)

This proves that one game can't save a system, Sony desperately needs to keep the sales momentum.

I read posts like this and I'm really just scratching my head wondering who has been wondering these things.

But, perhaps I've misread. You are suggesting that Vita doesn't need games, but a price-cut...correct?



Around the Network

Next week should be a good one for 3DS... 3 new releases

Samurai Chronicles 2nd

Medabots 7

and New Art Academy

...then another wait until the next color arrives on the 27th

 

Vita... nothing next week, but the other week there'll be LBP. Then two more weeks, Ys Seven, DJ Max and Nobunaga, all of them on the 27th

I bring that up because of this two threads.

Never said the Vita needs a price cut (although that will definitely help) it just need software, Hatsune Miku is a good example, even though the sales were drastically lower this week.

Oh ok, yeah I agree. It needs games. It's getting a few soon, but it needs a bunch more.

I've always wondered...why do people call Assassin's Creed...AssCreed o.O? (I know its short but how and when did it get start calling like that ;O)?


Dat Ass. ;o



What did you expected, seriously, it is just a game, the Vita needs a constant flow of games to recover from the bad sales, october looks promising for the Vita, it should do around 150k in Japan
3DS will slow down a lil bit until Castelvania
everything else low :(



yeah, but i mean, Castelvania is coming sooner.......i belive :P

I dont think Castlevania will do as well as people expected. But isnt Paper Mario Sticker Star coming out this year in Japan? Pretty sure that will help sales for the 3DS.

Depends if it's a main series game or not. The trailer indicates it's split up into levels like SPM instead of being a continuous world. Also no partners for some reason.

I'm not so sure about that. It's getting two notable releases today/tomorrow alone: Medarot, which can easily sell 100,000 lifetime based on prior entries in the series; and Samura Warrior Chronicles 2, the sucessor to a 200,000-seller.
