hopefully Vita doesn't drop below 20k.



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

To be fair, here's how GoWA currently stands in Japan on Amazon

It's not exactly wowing Japanese tastes, but this really isn't a surprise. But it's false to call it a bad game too.


Thanks for the earlier correction.

I dont think one can really speculate how Japans tastes are just by this review on amazon.. Feels a bit bad doing that..

 

GOW is still a fresh title in the minds of Japanese. Much like first person shooters here, it's slowly gaining momentum. It's just due to the style of play that GOW has to other domestic titles here in Japan.

I feel it has the potential to do well, but when you have games like Sangoku Musou, Gundam breakers, one piece, etc doing well domestically its a bit hard to follow. 

GOW has a similar feel to that of sangoku, but I'm sure over time Japan will consider it.

I expect Luigi's Mansion to do 900k in Japan in its opening week.

I have to say; this is extremely childish. Nobody made any outlandish predictions about the Vita just to downplay it later on. People genuinely thought it would do better. Sony fans need to be less paranoid. You guys are getting worse and worse.

That's not true. We both said 200k for price cut week, although at least I forgot to post in the Media Create thread to voice my disappointment. Not sure about you.

Vita doing 200K? That's nothing. Some Sony fans predicted 3.4M and 2.4M for Soul Sacrifice in 2013. But who knows, it can still happen.

Bringing up this is like bringing up johnlucas' predictions as some sort of sign of what the majority expects.

Only a matter of how soon, not a matter of "if".

I wasn't talking about the majority. Pokoko implicitly said that some Nintendo fans made outlandish Vita predictions, Immortal pointed that no Nintendo fan did, Rol make a joke about a nonexisting one, and I said that if somebody made one it was a Sony fan.

I suppose it depends on your definition of outlandish. I certainly think a lot of unrealistic expectations were made. I'm looking squarely at you conegamer.
