Call of Duty is produced by SquarEnix???? What the duece.

They have been publishing it in Japan for like forever*

They have a better marketing push in Japan then Activision so they made a deal for SQEX to publish.

*Not literally forever.



Around the Network

In a incredibly slow week, Nintendo still manages to sell 66k 3DS´s.

Surprisingly good start for CoD, but it will fall very soon

Vita holding up very well.



Dicrete Wii U boost, but i have expect more imho.



PS4 sells more than Wii U despite MK8 bundle ? !

Well, pretty much confirms PS4 > WiiU by 2016



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Its a holiday bundle, it'll do very well during holiday and...

 

Bundles everywhere... Vita got new color, thats where a huge bump came from. Anywayzzz, this week makes te gaming industry a little less Zombie like XD



Yeah Sony's WW presence will by itself get the PS4 over the Wii U and easily. This gen won't start properly for Japan until Xmas 2015 and even then expect PS3 games to still be selling.

That's why Sony are not worried about the PS4 over there. It can sell 14,000 units without them doing anything. When games like FF15, MGS5, RE, next GTA, Gran Turismo and may more titles hit the system it will take off as best a home console cold in japan.

The MCC numbers just show how MS lost their little foothold in Japan completely. Previous Halo releases from halo 3 onwards actually got decent FW numbers.

Fixed, seriously these are 2 of the most successful franchises on PS3 in Japan



Nice bump for Wii U. Didn't really expect more from the bundle as Mario Kart was released a couple of months ago. Captain Toad didn't do well. Cod gave PS4 a bigger boost than I expected.

3DS, despite a slow week still destroying everything else
