Forums - Sales Discussion - COMG! Japan Pre-order Chart Thread - Daily updates!

I remember people around here saying that Japan doesn't buy remakes, and even though it is Dragon Quest, I still have to say holy crap at Dragon Quest.

It is nice to see that Metal Gear Solid it moving along. This is a stretch, but it could be possible that people were reluctant to pre-order MGS V due to uncertainty around its development. If true, it's possible we could see a stronger-than-usual second and third week to partially make up for an underwhelming first week. Again, it's a stretch, but it's possible.

Also, if someone can provide me the information -- if there are ties in the points, including ones that would determine whether it would chart the top twenty, what determines which title ranks higher?

They buy remakes. But only remakes of huge IPs like Dragon Quest or Pokemon. Smaller IPs that get remade are almost entirely ignored.

Didn't understand exactly your question. Charting on COMG! Top 20, you said? Don't know. The pattern is usually if it's a big IP (o better said, if it's expected to sell a lot) it could get more points on first day, so rank in Top 20, but I could be wrong. Mario Maker, even if it's a Mario IP it's for Wii U, and not many Wii U titles started with high points. Well, also is COMG!, you know how this store is, lol. Sorry if didn't answer your question.

I kinda find the upcurve quite exciting. Hopefully preorders will be boosted by the anime. Also looking forward to Summon Night 6 preorders next year.
