Since never? I don't understand what you mean with that post. This thread here is about pre-ording japanese games. Most of them are Playstation games. Amazon Ranking counts the pre-orders. Most of them are Playstation products. See the connection? I never brought up Amazon in an actual sales thread like NPD or Media Create. Maybe it bothers you that there is more hype about Playstation products than Nintendo's........

Maybe this post reply you gave me might ring a bell to you:

Wii U is holding out a bit better than expected considering 9 out of the last 10 days the console wasn't available (and still isn't right now) at Amazon Japan

Considering the console got 3 new releases this week, the PS4 numbers feel actually a bit low

Vita is doing alright, nothing spectacular but not at all bad, either.

 

Since when Amazon Japan represents the whole Japanese market?

Also why PS4 numbers feel a bit low? Kiwami is also available on PS3 and it sold actually decent there (60k). Did you expect that people would buy a PS4 only for Kiwami when they can play it on PS3? Let's also consider that a Yakuza HD Collection was released some years ago and it sold very good. Expect maybe if you thought a game like Just Cause 3 could cause a PS4 bump.

It ringed a bell. And i was perfectly right. Did you read my post? In case you haven't noticed, this it a thread about pre-orders. That's why i mentioned Amazon pre-orders. I never mentioned Amazon pre-orders or in general Amazon sales in any thread with actual numbers like the NPD or the Media Create threads.

Dony mean to burst your bubble but that's irrelevant to an extent. Yes that's good and all for Sony but your looking at it all wrong. Reason why COMG is dominated by Sony, Amazon, etc is because it simply has quantity over nintendo. That's it. 

 

There will obviously be more things in the top 100 for Sony as it has memory cards, a lot I mean a lot more games, etc than nintendo. Like 2015 and 2014 and basically every year Sony products >Nintendo products in quantity. Yet nintendo is the ones either having more sales or making more money (japan). 

 

Basically saying if there are 100 Sony games and 10 nintendo games releasing in the next month, I obviously expect Sony to be greater on that type of chart!

90% of all the 3rd party games are coming to Playstation. Even Dragon Quest is now back on Playstation. Only MH and YW are still missing. So what you say about quantity over quality is not true. Playstation has both quantity and quality. Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean, Resident Evil, Musou games, Western games, Dark Souls, Yakuza and many others.

So what you said is 100% wrong.

OK your missing my point here amigo! I'm not talking quality/franchises at all. I'm talking about just  Sony having more products than nintendo and by quite a lot. Hence why it's dominating amazon for exanple

He never mentioned quality. He's point is pretty much: Nintendo has few games that sell a loooot, while Sony has a lot more games that sell not as much.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
