So commercials for Smash have began in Japan, hopefully it has a notable effect on preorders

http://nintendoeverything.com/japanese-smash-bros-wii-u-commercials/



COMG guide to points: 1 point = Raging. 2 points = Beasting. 3 points = Tearing it up. 4 points = Berzerk. 7 points = Rampage. 12 points = Burst. 15 points = god mode. 20+ points = DIVIDING BY ZERO!!! 40+ points = Youkai (originally Pokemon).

-1 = Negabeasting. -5= NegaRampage. -10 = NegaBurst

You need to change your sig, 40+ cant equal Pokemon if Pokemon cant reach those points =P

Hopefully Bloodborne is here to stay.

BTW, I have a suggestion for these tables. Now that PSP is all but gone, can we give its faint red colour to Vita? I just liked it better when it was just red and blue.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Wait with just the expansion or with the game+expansion?? Cause Im totally ok with lumping them together in that case, its basically a GOTY edition (just named differently) which we also lump in with regular sales all the time.

It's game + expansion.

Same thing happened for Dragon's Dogma.

Yeah well in that case it sold 500k =D

No, come on.

Monster Hunter 4G (or Ultimate) it's just an expansion of 4, including new monsters. It's the same game + new monsters and missions. It means now that MH4 sold more than 5 million and it's approachung to 6??? Of course no. There're a lot of rebuyers. The same with Dark Souls. VGC way of tracking is completely wrong.

Also FUCK YEAH BLOODBORNE!!!
I really think this one can be a 500k seller in Japan like Dark Souls was. It should have years to sell unrivaled unlike DkS2.

You mean 300k, right?

If you're going by VGC... then yeah, you mean 300k using believed trackers.

223. [PS3] Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition <RPG> (From Software) {2012.10.25} (¥4.800) - 37.698 / 140.811

25. [PS3] Dark Souls (From Software) {2011.09.22} 353,549         -        2011

 

Hardly 300k. 500k is more accurate, but that is without 360, PC and PS3 2012-2014. I guess if we do not include the expansion then it would be really close to 500k.

 

And if only PS3 Dark Souls without expansion then 400k?

-.-

1. Dark Souls final sales from Media Create top 1000, 2012 (it didn't chart in 2013)

652. [PS3] Dark Souls (From Software) {2011.09.22} - 8.280 / 361.829

2. 360 version never was launched in Japan

3. PC is irrelevant in Japan (not sure even if launched here)

4. If now we are going to include an expansion in total sales. Please, from now I want all of you saying that Monster Hunter 4 sold more than 6 million in Japan (MH4 + MH4G Expansion). We all know that this kind of expansions are bought mostly by the same people. Adding this sales is completely wrong.

Ok then. Dark Souls is a 300k franchise as you say.


Notice that my main point was that it was hardly a 300k franchise. And I was not including the expansion unless you wanted it to be. Good to know on the 360 version. But the PC version did launch.

 

Oh and I forgot digital but whatever, Dark Souls is a 300k franchise.

 

Edit: Sorry for offtopic. OT: decent day for YW.
