Correct me, but this was not the week of release of monster hunter frontier on wiiu and ps3?

Nope, not really. The game was released back in December and it bombed terribly.

This week, Crapcom simply released another "edition", as they always do with everything.

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.

Thanks for clarifying this.

It´s about time we have aso charts for digital sales, isn´t it? Retail sales alone can´t give us a clear view of the market anymore. But, damn it, it´s so hard to find information about that. Companies are still a lot secretive about it.

*mumbles under breath* haha what 3DS peak year?! (-80k from last year with a new game)...recent trend continues of new 3ds games with high opening weeks doing nothing for the 3DS.

Anywho, Famitsu also came out with their majority PS4 reviews...even Knack got at 70%, Yakuza at 39/40...look for the PS4 to do wonders in Japan. Hopefully Yakuza sales will propel 3rd parties in japan to finally get off the snide and start producing for the system.

Your username really fits you.  Not many people at all on this site claimed 2014 as its peak year.  Most said 2013.

Well I remember a lot of people disagreeing in one of my sales threads a few weeks back about it already having reached its peak (the 3DS vs. PSP sales one)


There's a difference here, though.  Some people may be disagreeing that the 3DS has reached its peak, but it also doesn't mean they think that this year is its peak year either.  I would imagine a lot of people want to remain hopeful that the 3DS can have a bigger year sometime.  Just because you see a trend doesn't mean it will always be that way.  Though if we want to go for what's most likely, the 3DS has reached its peak year.  What can be debated is how fast the drop off will be.  What we're seeing right now is not a good indicator since we have such a small sample for the year.

Xbox 194? X'D

Like I said. They shouldn't even bother anymore.   The evidence is right here.

I wonder how they even track that, 194 units...

Nice, really nice job. Thanks

I suppose they get those numbers from the developers themselves, don´t they?

The disparities over GTA V seem very big, 700k for Famitsu, 640k for MC and now 620k for Dengeki

Of course it does happen sometimes, but even still... I wonder if anyone will adjust

Media Create have, from what I can tell, similar shipments for both DQM1 & DQM2 but the first game sold through a lot more of it.  Comparisons for the next two weeks will be interesting.

Oh well, so much for the vita being on the rise in Japan. I called it a bit ago, that it wasn't going to hold 20k... It's too bad too, I haven't had any compelling software to play in mine for quite sometime... I personally would love to see a final fantasy 7 remake for it. I'd buy 2 copies, one o play and one for my collection, left sealed.
