Yeah, about that...

AlphaCielago and I are running low on Luigi's Mansion 2 players, so consider to get ready for tomorrow.

Ow, that means I have to put down MH3U to play more Luigi? I got the first two missions so far, how many until I unlock multiplayer?

Vita is indeed being confirmed as sold out at major locations in Japan.

When big retailers like Yodobashi, Joshin, Big Camera, and even the Sony Store are sold out of most or all models you know something is up. Possible release of a new model incoming?

Amazon all models but black 3G are gone (from Amazon itself).

Wii U still above 10k. Nice.

That's a really low standard you apply. You are happy it beats 10K? Are things really that bad?

Yes. Yes, they are.

The release schedule is barren, so any week above 10k can be considered good. We won't see many of them before the price cut this year.

And even after if the release schedule continues being a wasteland.

Sizeable drop offs for vita 3DS and Wii U. 3DS still looks good though because of its high base. Vita will get estrogen boosts with new release games but it seems the lower price tag by itself isn't brining in the punters despite the system having some high quality games.

The Vita price cut was a band-aid where a tourniquet was needed.

We'll see how the price cut will affect its first "second Christmas".

Kinda surprising how Vita is at the front of everybody's thoughts. 3DS has its first sub-60k week of the year; PSP has its second sub-10k week of the year. But all eyes are still on Vita. Including eyes which have been absent from these threads throughout the whole of the price cut month :P

But anyway, yes, it is quite an appalling drop for Vita. Large drops across the board on hardware, and it's only going to get worse for the next few weeks, there's nothing of note releasing until Tomodachi for 3DS (I think?)

Still, there's plenty of good in these numbers too. Surprise of the week for me is Game & Wario holding on so well (seriously, that's an impressive second week given the FW sales). Aside from the usual suspects, Dragon Ball & Kingdom Hearts are also having some very decent legs and Muramasa; One Piece & Soul Sacrifice all seem to be holding on decently for Vita, which is pleasing.

Disappointment of the week would have to be NGS3+ (no-one wants this game, Tecmo Koei. Make something else). Dragon Quest X for Wii-U also has a pretty poor second week, considering it should really be two-days-worth-of-sales better than Muramasa + Game & Wario but manages to beat neither. Oh well.


"Including eyes which have been absent from these threads throughout the whole of the price cut month" That part made me laugh the most lol. Indeed quite big drops for everything and somehow vita is sold out in many places. Tecmo Koei imo needs to get their act together. They can make a profit off any sales it seems but I want them to make good games again :(.



i hope 3ds is not exhausting itself in japan...

Fantasy Life doing pretty well. It's pretty much doubled it's sales from the FW. Considering the initial shortages and not including any of the eshop sales, that's pretty good.
