I´m sure that, with this amazing COMG ratio for Sony new IP´s, Freedom Wars will sell more than 200k the first week x

Haha, maybe in your dreams. And it will drop like a rock next week after release.

p.s. Goooooooooooooooooooo, YW2!

I don´t think so xD The game is pretty well advertised in Japan and the people is really HYPED with the demo. If It flopped  I´ll cut my nuts down xD

 

P.D: And I´m sure that YW2 will break 1 million FW xD

Define dropping like a rock for me Meret.

I dont think it'll happen that bad.... Maybe it'll stabilize like one of these options? :P

Because an expected drop of an anticipated game is 75-80%, this is the norm for almost all games across all consoles (including MK8 which had a 78% drop and was still praised for holding well). So I wanted to know what he thought would qualify.

Yokia's numbers aren't that impressive. It's gotten like 60 several times, it's quite expected to have it get this amount.


Its actually 70 points and YW2 never had gotten close to this much in a single day. Its got maybe 4-5 times 40-50points in one day and that was on the weekend

Mario Kart 8 sold 325k-350k FW then 70k-75k 2nd week. It was huge FW. Of course thats a good hold, i dont think percentages are needed so much. I mean PQ had 185k FW to 30k 2nd week, so techniqually thats worse if you look at percent.

I think percentage doesn't mean much if software had much different numbers to begin with. MK8 will go on and continue to sell well despite first couple of weeks and its low userbase. Freedom Wars will get 130k-180k FW and even if it drops to 25k-30k the next week,its still good cuz overall its already going to or already has surpass the 200k mark.

Not really aiming it at you but the biggest percentage crap i hear all the time in Japan this year is Vita+3DS. The excuse of Vita being up by alot YoY during many weeks and 3DS being down by a huge amount gets tossed around sometimes too much :0  Though 3ds is still by far #1 in 2014, people use this YoY percentage excuse :P

Kinda overall just sucks that the market is just doing terrible... Freedom Wars will do well, it can drop 90% from week to week, as long as it sells well, it should make many happy aside from Haters

That's expected though.  A JRPG normally sees like 80%-90% second week drop, whereas a Mario game I'd expect to see a much less harsh drop.

Personally I think percentages do matter because everything is relative and it's a good way to measure things regardless of actual sales.  The reason Mario Kart's drop was so harsh was simply because the userbase isn't there to support a game with massive legs too well.
