But we're comparing Black & White, at the end of the DS life cycle when it had an install base over 30 million in Japan, to X and Y, early in the 3DS's life with an install base under 13 million -- less than half the DS's install base when BW launched.

Tch, why would they, low-budget niche games seem to be where the money is at.  Sexy characters and quirky content doesn't need high-quality game-play weighing it down.

Still, yay for Neptunia.

its best to compare it with diamond/pearl, i think its ahead by a little on COMG.

4 vita games :*D

I think we should expect lower first-week sales, but longer (and stronger) legs. On a somewhat unrelated note, I also think we should expect European sales to actually be tracked.

find me some info! I dunno where to look lol. I saw i think on neogaf (watever its called) that xy tracking ahead of Diamond/Pearl by around 20-30points. B/W is the only pokemon that had a huge pre order amount

We don't have to stop comparing BW to XY. We just have to know to take other factors into account. Some people may get the wrong impression from these pre-orders, but those misconceptions will be cleared up once the games are released and we have actual sales numbers to compare.

That's the most Vita games I've seen in the chart at once since the price cut (I think PSO2 + Tales + Soul Sacrifice were all in together at one point?)

Very nice. I'm glad Neptunia showed up. I was worried it wasn't going to do well, and the previous games had pretty good showings in COMG. Releasing the same day as Little Battlers which it bumped out, too :P

I hope Danganronpa gets to 50 points. 1 per day should be doable at the very least. Should mean a decent opening week too.

I really wonder what's going on with Pokemon. I know everyone is saying "stock issues!" but why would COMG be taking any pre-orders if there's stock issues? It should either be full pre-orders or none, surely? Unless there's a day-by-day quota of
P&Dz looks like it's going to be the next impressive game to watch. It's doing really well.

This was the most recent update I could find:

[NDS] Pokémon Diamond / Pearl - 709pt + 536pt = 1245pt
[NDS] Pokémon HeartGold / SoulSilver - 712pt + 584pt = 1296pt
[NDS] Pokémon Black / White - 1190pt + 1058pt = 2348pt
[NDS] Pokémon Black 2 / White 2 - 737pt + 640pt = 1377pt
[3DS] Pokémon X / Y - 687pt + 678pt = 1365pt

I suspect Diamond & Pearl sped up more than X & Y have been doing, but I have no data to back that up!
