Impressed by Muramasa! Awesome numbers, to be honest. Also guys, don't forget that all PS Vita releases have their digital counterpart, so these sales are always higher.

Indeed so :) WiiU also has a nice record now of releasing its software day1 digital too

thats usualy how i buy my wiiU games now, sales are starting to pop up too, think zombieU was like 200SEK (~30$) off last time i checked, got the bundle so i didn't pick that up but still nice to see.

Please, just let Noctis handle the MC/Famitsu threads.

OT:
Dat Dragon Quest. SE messed up big time.
Too bad G&W bombed, but on the bright side the Wii U got a small boost.

And it's definitely the Year of Luigi!

Wii U saw a 220% jump in sales because of Dragon Quest. Not 300% like Wii saw, but still good considering the game only sold 30k. I wonder where Wii U will end up globally.

Has Media Create still not come out yet?

Soul scarifice looks like it will have some legs (Previous week 15,488->this week 11,577) so that's good. Also, great news for Muramasa on the vita, for reference Muramasa on the Wii sold about 45k in 10 weeks.

A nice boost for the Wii U, keep it up.

Extremely poor DQ and G&W numbers, but the increase WiiU has seen with those sales is pretty nice.

As for the Vita, that's it SW-wise for some time. It had a great run for 5 weeks, now let's see where it settles with no major releases.

Now I understand... the Famitsu numbers are not released yet... all the number in this OP is Media Create.

So my comments are back...

+ PSV holding the sales... great.
+ PS3 holding too... good.
