Forums - Sales - Japan sales week 39: Famitsu and Media-create ( September 24-30)

Decent - but not stellar - opening for EDF 3 Portable, and a pretty nice opening for Ys: Celceta. Surprised it never made its way onto COMG. Bigger first week than Ys 7 managed on the PSP, though.  Hoping this increases chances for localisation.

As always, thank you for posting - it's interesting to read!

...that's some scary legs if NSMB2 stablizes at ~30k

Thinking here, it's really strange when a shovelware game like Medarot 7 sells equal to Tekken.

Now here's a franchise (and genre) that really fell from grace on the sales aspect. Not in quality, thankfully.



Yeah its a shame, but I can't wait to pick up my TTT2 Wii U Preorder, so there will be some more sales down the line. At least one....



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

I'll be honest, I think fighting games have become too complicated.
I watched some Dead or Alive reviews recently and sometimes I couldn't understand shit of what they were saying - and I like fighting games (most 2D ones, though)

It's like fighters are being made exclusively for EVO gamers and not the general public anymore. I still like them a lot, but I can see this as a reason for them losing mass appeal.

no this isn't Vitas biggest week in Japan. I recall Vita selling over 50k one week.

He probably meant the one with more releases since launch -  5 games - although only 2 of them worth noticing (sales wise)

That's what I was talking about. All of these games releases should have, IMO, propelled it to 20k levels. This seemed like it was going to be one of those releases similar to what happened with Persona and Hatsune Miku (not on the same level). I was probably thinking too far ahead, but like Kenji Inafune said Okatu games won't save the Vita. Hopefully next year is better than this. Don't know about PAS: BR.

Next week is going to be big:

+ the usual 5 games for PSP that no one knows/cares - lol, this week, a 200k game and not a single fuck was given to it.

Nothing for 3DS or Vita



What about this Vita and Dreamcast thing?
