Software sales are telling me next week will not be pretty.

To be fair, WiiU started in the holidays. Although christmas isn't that big in Japan, it has an impact.

I see the Magi game is out already, and the basket-ball game underperformed compared to COMG. So come on devs, repeat after me : VI-TA!

And Strider is an atomic bomba. Probably Playsation players taking revenge for MH4U.

*looks at the charts*

Well, maybe the game underperformed on 3DS, but do you really think it would be better if you put it on a platform, that has not even a single title in the charts? Even WiiU might be a better choice.

Lol cmon, you have to know WiiU is a worse choice than Vita for these anime games. Sony handhels sell purely because of anime games. Not going to say Vita>3DS but even the thought of WiiU>Vita is just hilarious

LOL, you're right. I was only using one scale, that WiiU at least has some titles in the charts.

Gotta love all the Nintendo fans remarks about Knack. It's like they all want the game to come to the WiiU.

Solid start for PS4. Expected more from Yakuza though (PS3 and PS4).
3DS getting into low territory. Vita and WiiU seem to have bottomed out. Vita up YOY at least.

Oh and look despite being available for 7 days Donkey Kong dropped by 60% from last week's 4 days of sales...

Dont know much myself, just know it has an anime and could come to the west in the future

If it comes to the west, I have to research more, what this is about. Might be a game for me.

Hmm, couldn't resist and look at this moment:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youkai_Watch

Sounds like a Pokemon clone. That would definitely be something for me, if made well.

Again, about as expected (namely Wii U levels). Pretty good, but obviously it's yet to be seen if it drops the same. Somehow I doubt it'll dive quite so low.

Vita also stable, to be expected with the PS4 I suppose. Will probably stay just below 20k, which is still double the baseline of last year. What a turnaround, indeed.

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.
