I am surprised MHW is so low, especially compared to Persona 5. It is releasing very soon, and is MH of course.

3-4 million people already own MHW in Japan and will be purchasing the digital only DLC for Iceborne.

Good day for iceborne, wonder how good will do the expansion

Many people already own Persona 5 as well, and the market is much bigger for MH franchise than Persona franchise, as well as being much cheaper.



FF7 continue to increase. Ryza increases today. Nice.

But Persona 5 Royale isn't available as dlc....

I have no idea what the pricing in Japan is for the dlc Vs the physical but I'm assuming it's cheaper.

What's up with Pokemon? Are the Japanese not so hyped about this entry?



MHW Iceborne DLC - 4800 yen
MHW Iceborne Physical (Amazon) - 6226 yen

Persona 5 should Lso be doing this. I'm tired of Japanese games releasing essentially a goty edition but offering no discounted upgrade option to owners of the original.

Keep in mind that anime style games do better on COMG in general. So P5 may be ahead here, but in all of Japan the situation can be different. On amazon MHW is 21st currently while P5 is 30th.

The order of COMG dominance is most certainly MH> Anime style games. The only game to get over 5000 points in COMG is a MH game, and it was much over-represented. I suppose MHW did have a strong digital ratio, so many might be going for that route instead. Still I would expect the LE MHW edition to do quite well in COMG and then be over-represented, especially this close to release.

How fast we went back down to 3 pts. So many Down-Arrows. Fishing Spirits will have a pretty solid second week. FE, RF drop way harder. Also Japan has never been that fond of Crash.

How much of the drop do you think is due to the upcoming release of the Switch lite and new base models with extended battery life?

The amount of count in P5R justifies the way they are doing it, it is much more than a goty edition
