I'm not saying it would sell big time there, but it really couldn't do worse. These consoles need such games and it could help move some hardware. I think this game would fit best on Vita (since LBP Vita is the best one out there), if it was released on PS4 it would probably canibalise Knack, so wouldn't be that beneficial.


I don't see how Puppeteer woul sell ps4 ,game that not sold well would not move a console hardware


That's why I was talking mainly about Vita? Still, new console sells new IPs much better. It wouldn't help in the narrow launch window, but could help draw some more casual players 4-6 months after the launch, the ones that Knack it targeted at. Still, for me this looked like a perfect Vita game, since I play 2D games pretty much only on it, they just work much better there.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

The last of us proove this is not true i think new IP should be release  2-3 years after the launch Uncharted was released in the launch of ps3 it dosn't had a big opening week but it had legs due to the growth of the install base and it's quality.

 



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

Anyone worrying about KZ:M heres a comparison
KZ:L on PSP sold 12,849 in its 1st week in the USA and sold 371,085 lifetime in the US
KZ:M on Vita sold 14,251 and that's without digital sales.
Worldwide KZ:L on PSP sold 834,314 so hopefully KZ:M can leg out to similar numbers

Thanks for the comparsion.

Without digital vgchartz tracking is becoming less and less reliable.

People are forgetting that the bulk of Vita sales are digital.

Remember, all Vita games are digital.


well lets say half of them are digital. That makes 28k-30k FW, It released on a Tuesday i think.

I was expecting around 30k first week in US so if its around that with digital then that sounds about right. I still havent even brought it and im a huge KZ fan, there is just way to many games coming out atm.

Well the psp version had big legs, hard to tell how this one will turn out. I think alot of people want the game but its coming out in a time where alot of people are putting other games before it. As it stands its a flop but I think it will leg out to over 600k easy.



Xbox 360 killing it in Japan. 178



Those Puppeteer numbers are not flattering at all.

The Last of Us wasn't just a new IP. It was a new Naughty Dog game, it doesn't prove a thing. Look at Remember Me, Fuse, now Puppeteer and other very good new IPs that don't come from developers who are considered celebrities. It's a well known rule, start of a new gen is when you introduce new IPs, they almost all bomb at the end of a generation.
