Save me JEBUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! But seriously I hope someone got fired for that one ;)

Stick a hello kitty sticker on it or something would ya. This is just embarrassing. There are probably more US citizens in Japan buying a PS4 than an xb1 at this point.

Oh they did, http://www.engadget.com/2014/11/28/head-of-xbox-japan-resigns/ , well kind of, he resigned.

 

OT: Impressive PS4 HW, WiiU is up too!

3DS is up too, and will reach a rather decent number, but had a rough decline YoY, wondering if Nintendo wants it to reach 20m before 2016.

PSV, is up  but next week will fall behind last year's number, but considering all it's not bad at all.

PSP is flat! XD And X-One is up......still sad :/

 

3DS SW is the most impressive, Pokemon holding, SSB is up by a lot! YK2 is also up I guess people who couldn't find 2.5 had to get that one, about to get to 3m in both trackers. MH4, Animal Crossing, doing what they usually do. And Attack on Titan is holding rather well. Oh and what's that game at #16 on MC, showing some impressive legs.

Captain Toad is showing some strong legs, taking full advantage of the holidays, nice. MK8 is up, and SSB hold is not bad, but not good either :/ And wtf, Taiko y u no hold better.

I beleived that PSN was going to be a bigger title, quite unfortunate for PSV.

The PS4 is just way more likely than the Wii U, SE has basically abandoned the Wii U at this point and bringing DQH over to the PS4 can be taken as a sign imo as well, first DQ game on a PS console since 2006 after all.

If Yuji Horii really wants to make the next Dragon Quest game a home console title then it'll be on the PS4.


i was talking about MH.

And I wanted to talk about DQ, so deal with it

13./17. [WIU] Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo) {2014.11.13} (¥3.996) - 14.628 / 80.510 (+24%)
Captain Toad didn't skipped leg day, Bayonetta should watch and learn.

Bayonetta 2 costs more than double Captain Toad.


I'm almost certain the price difference is an order of magnitude, not a mere double. :P

Sales are ok for this game. 100k for japan is not too bad.

Captain Toad retails for 4000 yen and bayonetta 2 retails for 8300 yen. That's more than double.

Good numbers for PS4 and 3DS as usual. But jesus everything else across the board sucks. Wii U 27k the week before Christmas! Shocking. Don't even think PS4 can hold that without GTA next week.

Highly doubtful it holds. No meaningful PS4 releases until January 20th when RE HD releases (which won't be big anyways).


Yup. It's one of those random pushes similar to what the PS3 used to get. I can see PS4 < Wii U next week

good to see sales of the Wii U rise so no launch the week , thanks to Smash Bros Wii U and the bundle of MK8 , the way the average Wii U there this month will be 30K a week.



Prediction: Nintendo Switch 2 sells 18 million until the end of 2025

I said Sony shipped mountains of DQH bundles and here you see. Even Tsutaya reported sold out, it is sill available in most shops. Sony is still shipping more bundles. They're limited, but during all Holiday season.

I also said that Smash for Wii U first week was not important. The following weeks with Christmas coming were the clue. And here we go. Second week drop is huge, congratulations for Nintendo. I blame the overpriced bundle. Hardware sales are pathetic, last year Wii U was selling 75k with good bundles. This year's bundle is a sh*t.

Thats really harsh (the sales compared to last year), i know Nintendo is trying to profit alot, but those bundles are really bad. If they had same type of value as last years bundle at least, WiiU would be on par YoY, maybe even slightly up...

Really does suck though, i hope to god next year is alot better :-/

SSBU doing decently. Still hoping for 800k lifetime in japan. Should be half way there next week
