Looks like the PS4's baseline is in the 7000-8000 range, sometimes bumping closer to 9000. It desperately needs some Japanese-made games that aren't cross-gen.

Also, if the Wii U can hold steady above 10k per week, it stands a chance of maybe doing better this year than last year despite starting the year doing worse.


It will do better due to no price cut lull it had last year when it dropped to 2k-3k and Smash at the end of the year.

Going by Media Create it went from 13k last week to 12k this week, a very small drop and likely to remain over 10k for at least one more week.

VGC usually splits the difference between the two and they are usually both so close that it works well. Just looking at one is a bit silly.  However, if you want to only use MC sales then I would expect less people to have said it would be under 10k next week (last week).

I agree looking at one is a bit silly, which is pretty much what u were doing as well by claiming it was going to be under 10k next week.

As always, thanks for reserving the second post. You should do these threads more often :)

I always get surprised at minor Vita hardware bumps from software I'd never expect to bump it (i.e. a multi-multi-platform One Piece game and port of a PSP title which is already available on Vita). But there you go.

WiiU "holding on" better than I thought, though. It's got the psychological barrier of 10k locked in, which is something.

Software wise - Persona Q a little better than I was expecting; Mario Kart a little worse than I was expecting. Bombas all around from One Piece (I wonder if we're going to see the WiiU version of Kamen Rider at ~ 25% of the PS3 version. That'd do better than I was expecting if so). Massively overshipped too. Did Namco really not see this coming?

Bit of a discrepancy between the Legend of Heroes numbers. They'll even out at the same amount as Zero no Kiseki for VGC purposes though, which is something I guess.

Otherwise, quiet week. Meh.
