Forums - Sales - 2015 Japanese Predictions

So what are everyones?

We can use the average of MC and Famitsu at years end to see how everyone went

Here are my more eyeopening ones

PS4 to outsell Wii U more than 3:1

PS4 to be best selling console/handheld, that is to sell more than than the 3DS!

 

update: I have been informed that both Nintendo and Sony use Media Create numbers not Famitsu, so it sounds like they are the more official numbers

My prediction is that you'll be dead wrong about ps4 outselling 3ds.

Mine would be that more and more publishers/developers will be moving to mobile games in Japan

And that the 3ds will continue to carry Japan

PSV, Wii U, 3DS, and XB1 all down YoY
PS4 the only one up

Actually, XB1 has a long shot at selling better.

Wii U is harder to say. Cause MK8 and SSB4 have now released (considered to be the best system sellers it will get), but IMO constant game releases and a price cut will sell the console 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.

No offense, but you are insane to think that the PS4 will outsell the 3DS... I just don't see it doing it. You can bump me at the end of the year and I'll openly admit I'am wrong, if I'am wrong.



3DS After New3ds/xl was monthly yoy up and the 50% decline was stopped!New3ds/xl sold 1.238m,7k more than dsi in the same time frame and passed ps vita's sales in 2014(YTD) with almost 100k difference and that in just two months and a half!What were you thinking when you were posting the last line,the only thing that i will say is...OH MY GOSH...



PS4 will not outsell 3DS. Japan is a handheld country first and foremost, and even though 3DS has been declining, it's still far above anything else on the market there. Even the Vita typically sells more than the home consoles there.

If the PS4 outsells the Wii U at all, it'll be 1.2:1 at most. Definitely not 3:1. Doesn't really matter though. They'll both sell like trash. I won't even get into the rediculous 3DS prediction.



Does it have to be sales only? Ah whatever I'm just throwing out some predictions/bets about the PS4 and its games, don't really care much about the other systems.

The PS4 will be the best selling home console of 2015 in Japan and up YoY

Level 5s game "that will be bigger than Yokai Watch" will be PS4 exclusive and release at the end of 2015.

FFXV will release at the end of the 2015 in Japan

The new Hot Shots Golf game (pretty big in Japan and we always forget about it) will also release holiday 2015

Persona 5 will release in the summer in Japan

A PS4 exclusive Tales game will be announced

DQ XI will be announced as PS4 exclusive

Bloodborne will sell over 300k on PS4, DQH over 500k, Persona 5 over 250k

That's all I can think of right now.
