PS3 and Resident Evil both underperformed compared to my predictions... but I think I was led by the COMG crew... 70k PS3 was a real stretch. Even though not 800k, still a respectable number for RE. The expectative is if will reach a million or not, but I think it can!

Yikes at Vita! Sub 8k
Next weel is bound to be the new low...?

3DS 65k, still great!... next week is one of my most anticipated weeks of the year... new blue 3DS, Project X-Zone and Bravely Default

C'mon Vicviper. It did great whether it didn't meet your expectation or not. You can't deny that mate. It didn't underperform. Selling twice it's predeccesor.

According to my expectations and everyone else on COMG thread. Not saying they didn't do good.

Yep, my original prediction was 70k for PS3 and, if i remember well, 550k for RE6... :)

The super slim PS3 stayed the same price. The Xbox, oddly, did not drop in price, but the price of the Xmas bundle released 10/4 is significantly lower, which explains its boost. 20 000 yen for 250gb, 2 games, 1 month of Hulu, and 1 month of Xbox Live. Normally, the 250gb console is 30 000 yen.

I actually walked into my local Sofmap today to buy the new bundle, but they were sold out. I ended up walking out with a lightly used GOW3 LE console instead.

You're from Japan too? Welcome!

That type of info is much appreciated here!


Thanks, just found the site.

Yep. I live in Kyoto prefecture.

Yes, welcome! I live in Nagoya.

The GOW3 LE 360 is nice, I have one as well.

3DS is still the top system even with no releases. Sweet. Next week is going to be really good.

Are there any big Vita games coming out soon in Japan? I want to see it higher! D:

I don't believe there are any big games left until Soul Sacrafice early next year. There will be a few titles that pop up and raise sales a bit, but nothing major.

Huge opening for RE6, people at the COMG thread were delusional. But, I did expected more for the HW.

PSV under 8k in MC numbers, more than worrying, what will happen in these weeks before the holidays' bump?
Poor Wii, competing with the Xbox.

Wow! PS3 got close to the 3DS for a little while. Next week will be huge for the 3DS. Both those new games will sell way over 100,000 copies. I will say close to 200,000 for Bravely.

definitely not for first week. Both should open over 100K though.

AKB 1/149 might be the biggest game left for this year.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
