Pretty great for Shining R if it can top Smash 2nd week. Unless the latter bomba horribly, that should ensure very good sales. GTAV above ROSA is good also, PS4 boost should work ok.

PSNova legs yay.
Surprised by ACRogue tho.

3ds becoming the definitive way to play SSB. at least in Japan which is a shame.

GTA5 doing so-so, expected a bit higher.



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

Hmmm, not sure if I can say "good hold" for Smash. Good jump for MH tho.


Think a little bit better my bro!See what is above smash!Two new games,if there weren't these new games,Smash would be?What it would be?1st...:PSo you can say ''good hold''.

Hope Smash Bros for Wii.U is doing good numbers. At least 70k to do the same as MK8.

Phantasy Star Nova... how disappointing. Terrible FW and no legs. Oh well.

Maybe Shining Resonance did alright after all, I hope so, though the dev costs would've been a lot higher for this entry compared to the PSP entries, and sales don't seem any stronger.

Assassin's Creed Rogue bombed though. That PS3 boxing game didn't do so hot either.

Looks like the season of 3DS games with legs is upon us!

You look quite pessimistic today Kres. Where do you expect Smash 2nd week exactly? Resonance is easily above Arkh unless Smash is heavily frontloaded and fails to benefit from holiday boost.

PSNova holds much better than EO2. It's doing ok in today's relative market conditions.

PS4 will be like 200% increase( 2 times last week) and I don't see the 3DS be ~300k or Wii U 55K


So what would PS4 sales be with that increase? 36k? Seems decent considering the lack of software. 

Im thinking 30k-40k also, less than that would be horrible since it is ps4 ´s first holiday and we don't know how much sony shipped those DQ and GTA V bundles but next week (or this week to be precise)  PS4 will be at least 40k+ no boubt about that

Sony shipped mountains of DQH bundles (literary). To cover all Holidays, including New Year's Eve.

both GTAV and DQH are still fully available.

I think 100k+ would be a good result, it's just, the PSP Shining games were selling ~ 200k lifetime and that was obviously a good result for them, then Ark dropped off to ~ 130k or so and seemingly that wasn't good enough (lots of copies in bomba bins).

With the shift to Resonance, which seems to have much, much higher production values, I feel like getting another ~ 200k LT sales would be a bit of a poor result, despite it being a return to form for the series.  Especially since they seem to be gunning for the Tales audience with the title.

It's certainly not a bad result for the series, I just feel like it doesn't justify the jump from handheld to console.

Hopefully the PS Vita hardware will stay 22k...




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

Kind of ironic hearing that from you. "PSNova holds much better than EO2. It's doing ok in today's relative market conditions." So you rip on Nintendo games with previous comments and sometimes in a weird way, yet PSN is dong good and has an excuse because "today's market conditions"? Dafuq?? XD

Im baffled Ryu, "Bomb this", "Flop that" (for alot of Nintendo games) but when it comes to a vita game "Excuse". I AM A DISSAPOINTED!!!

PSN did ok, but its far from excusable with its performance. Same with SSBU, its doing good yet it underperformed (FW). That doesn't mean crap though as long as its legs are good!
