FFX HD vs A Link to the Past 2
Going to be an interesting day.

When does LttP2 come out?

Same day as FFXHD, 26/12.

I wonder if Lttp2 will surpass OoT3D, which sold around 500k I believe.

hell yea it will!

Isn't 2D Zelda more of sales risk?

with this sexy bundle? Nope! (too early to say just yet though) But its doing good on Amazon for now, lets see if it appears here soon!

Amazon charts suck. FFX & X-2 for Vita were in top five since they started taking pre-orders till it sold out yet the game hasn't shown up on COMG! Must have sold all those 50 copies on Amazon.

Zelda may appear later on COMG, but not because Amazon means anything.

I don't know why you compare two different store is Amazon that big in Japan?

PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Amazon is a more significant seller in Japan than many of you may think.

That said, however, the only time Amazon rankings are useful are when an item can sustain a ranking for more than a couple days, without going out of stock (which happens all the time) since that's an immediate drop. Pretty much only useful for big sellers like Pokemon, GTA, Monster Hunter. I suppose FFXHD has been pretty steady as well.

There's no reason to get excited when an item which just opened for preorder suddenly shoots way up into the Amazon chart, because it's not like the initial wave of preorders could do that, right? Even Vita games pull that off. Amazon rankings are also absolutely worthless for things like limited editions and other items with very limited supply.

Lots of God Eater 2 promotional material being released. Hopefully it warms up even more. Very long pre-order periods really spread the points out, though.

If that's true, we should see New Super Mario 3D Worlds soon, it's just below GT6 on Amazon.....

....I forget, what colour did we give WiiU?
