WTF?! Vita rises from the ashes. It almost supassed the 3DS LL!

This is great news! I hope it keeps up, then the west branches might feel more confident about supporting it. Wonder what will happen when God Eater 2 comes out... ^^

This gives Sony a clear hint aswell. Limited editions... make more of them!

Ah nevermind... unintentional double post.

Hmm lets see, that Gundam break game is curious as it sold well but has terrible reviews. Gundam power?

Actually...Wii U is up about 35-40%. That is encouraging


I see no Wii U games. Why the increase?

Advertising? I think that's an equally as big a thing as the Vita increase, if not more so. The Vita had a big game, which was bundled. Yet the Wii U increases with adverts only.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

It's as though people don't realize this list exists.

You can see what games came out last week

...and what games fail to chart!



Had no idea Toukiden was so hyped.

Everything's up, there's no mistery about it. The market is up as a whole, no specific reasons.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Everything else had a reason. PS3 had Gundam, PSV and PSP had Toukiden, 3DS had Labyrinth, but what did the Wii U have? Especially having such a large increase, percentage wise.

The Wii U has nothing new this week, at all. So advertising must be the only reason, which is encouraging for the rest of the world.

Thank you for this.

I think it's time to drop PS3 price in Japan even if it's doing well each week.....



Nice increase all around really, with Vita the star. Wii U made a jump, but really needs to get back up well over 10k ASAP.
