I'm extremely late to the party, but what the hell is Youkai Watch and why is it so popular?

It's pretty much the new Pokemon in Japan. Not sure what the game is, maybe an RPG or something similar to Tomodachi Life. But what made it so popular was the anime. 

So the first game releases, and it has good sales. But then a new season of the anime releases, and it goes on to sell over a million lifetime (with incredible legs). And after becoming so popular, it's sequel releases, and it seems to sell better and better.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

HW above MK8... so 20k-25k?
That's a 65% drop from Media Create if I recall... Eeehh. I've seen most frontloaded games drop 70% or more in the second week. So it's bad... but not too bad, I guess?


Its above Yoshi which was at 30k as of last week, above MK8 at 28k, so then HW would be >30k. We don't know where that puts it though as it only tells us the bottom and the other games are new with no numbers yet.

I suspect its probably sold through its 100k-120k shipment at this point.

For Reference:

01./01. [3DS] Yo-kai Watch 2: Ganso / Honke (Level 5) {2014.07.10} (¥4.937) - 118.526 / 2.212.518 (-2%)
02./00. [WIU] Hyrule Warriors # (Koei Tecmo) {2014.08.14} (¥7.980) - 69.090 / NEW <57,33%>
03./05. [3DS] Yoshi's New Island (Nintendo) {2014.07.24} (¥4.936) - 29.933 / 144.162 (+32%)
04./06. [WIU] Mario Kart 8 (Nintendo) {2014.05.29} (¥6.156) - 28.221 / 627.635 (+35%)

Destiny might push PS4 above Wii U for a week.


I doubt it.

The PS4 will likely only need 10-15k to do it. That's still not a very good number.

YW2 still unstoppable (Ganzo did better this time), Barrett Girls pre-order were HUGE at some retailers! TLOU:R :(

What's huge now? -.-

lol

Don't forget to remove the pictures lool, Well games like barrett girls do  sub 20k FW, so B.G. will do way better than 20k

Ok, but that's not what i call huge lol

you could have said, pre-orders were good at some retailers, quite good or similar adj.

Woooo Bullet Girls with the best FW of all the new games
Zelda Musou wont push past 100k this week =(
The Senran Kagura Flop continues
And lastly the PSVita legs down the bottom keep chugging along. SAOII has been awesome for Hollow Fragment.

hum... this one is 50 picarats. Either Bullet Girls, TLOUR and Diablo had a surprisingly good week (given they never showed up in COMG), or Hyrule Warriors is tanking like a rock.

Still quite impress by Bullet Girls, I thought it would barely chart. I can't wait to the see the sales figures (maybe I sould buy it eventually if everyone did).

The Holy Vita Trinity (FW, SAO, Oreshika) still making wonders :)

It did break 100k if the numbers of MK and Yoshi are the ~same~ as last week.
