Nice from PS4.

Not great from vita but not too bad.

Biggest week last year (I think) from Wii U was 115k. Wonder if it is possible again.

For the Wii U?


According to VGC.

No I mean are you asking if 115k is possible for the Wii U this year?

Yeah, the boost last year came from seemingly nowhere. So I am wondering the same for this year.



#DAT 64:1 PS4 to Xbox One sales disparity.
#DAT 1 week > Xbox One Lifetime sales
#DAT Dragon Quest Edition?

Hey here is a bold idea... why doesn't Microsoft just get pocket one high profile Japanese deal, or get a custom console pack in for a high profile title like FF15 or KH3. Do a price drop like in the US, pack it in with one of those two games and I am willing to bet they could nearly double their lifetime sales in a couple of weeks.



sigh... bundles vs one games selling power
clearly bundles win.... or should I say special editions win.
Nintendo next year Limited Edition NES WII U. Do it!

Well considering that the Wii U is down 60% yoy this week in Japan, I'd say it's not very likely.

PS4 effect I guess, despite MK and SSB.

Does it mean it's doing alright?

PS4 ltd is roughly 250k behind PS3 in the same timespan. Not too shabby actually.

I'd have said Hearts/Blade should've been what they should have aimed for.  But maybe it is just an eternally ~ 70k series (in which case, I'd question why they're continuing with it.  7th Dragon is a cheaper JRPG series to make with more consistent sales).
