I don't agree. Even JRPGs typically double their FW and they're completely leg-less. I would still classify Brawl as frontloaded and it has good legs. I just think that it's not quite in that tier of games that actually do have great legs.


Really? FW sales shouldnt literally be accounted for Legs. DQ has a huge first week and usually have another well 3-4 weeks after then almost stopping completely. SSB had a 800k+ FW followed by 1.8mil+ sales afterward. If you only look at percentage like Ex Yokai Watch when accumulating Leg sales (with first week sales) then it wouldn't be fair cuz only games to do this are generally New IP's

GTA5 had wat first week? Over 14mil right? (or was it like 10mil?) In terms of percentage it wont hit 4x thevamount first week yet Yokai Watch is already 15x FW with it still selling like crazy

Just my 2 cents on the matter though :)

Poor Freedom Wars...Oh well. At least Mario Kart 8 and Yokai Watch 2 are doing well!

Yes? Most games do if that only 2x first week. Also that figure is beyond great. It had huge sales first week and great legs.

Legs dont necessarily factor on Week 1 sales. Pokemon is an example of this :) (Week 1 around 1.9mil i think and its at 4.2mil)

That's some pretty solid legs, there, Outlaw.  Selling over 100k per year in Japan 5 years after it launched it pretty good.

It actually has steadier legs than Pokemon Diamon/Pearl and Black/White, NintendoDogs, Brain Age, Animal Crossing: Wild World and New Super Mario Bros Wii.

Oh wow nice find! 100k is more than most games sell lifetime in japan. I thought it fell off after its 3rd year on the market but avg over 2.5k a week is pretty damn good!

Viper, how accurate are those numbers (VGC)? If it was selling 2.5-3k/week for the whole year, then it would have appeared in the 40-60 range at all times. My memory could be failing me though, but I don't remember it popping up from time to time.

We know the game is overtracked as they shipped less than 12 million copies WW (and 1.7 million in 2008, not 1.9).

tbone51 on 23 April 2014

O....o.....Ooo....Oooooooo....OOOOOOOOOMG its Just a Wed!!! Got my hopes up :-/

At Least one game doing great! SAO finished..... PS3 Domination Tommorrow...

Any guesses wat will show up guys? (4 games)

Kresnik on 23 April 2014

Well, COMG certainly got a late new batch for SAO LE.

Mario Cant (ha!  I've been sitting on that one).

And Theatrhythm... did not reach its goal of matching the last game.  Although a pretty decent result either way.

Otherwise, zzz, apart from the NEW GAME OMG NINTENDOMINATION

P.S. I know for certain one game that will show up tomorrow!
