Another bad call by MS, like the ACU advertising.

They need a Destiny/Watchdogs effect. Doesn't seem like its going to happen any time soon.

Whos doing the marketing for Batman AK?

For the first half of the year, MS has Evolve and The Witcher 3, Sony has Battlefield Hardline and Batman

So VGC has MH3 at 6,362 in the UK on opening week. So that puts MH4 at a little over 12K if VGC is approximately right. How is that impressive really?

1% Evolve PS4bonePC < 400. Evolve total sales is <40K. Also not all that great. Titanfall on Xb one alone launched in the UK to 129K on a miniscule install base by comparison. PC = <1200 of the total sales so PS4bone Evolve <38.8K Xb one sales <19.6K PS4 sales <19.2K. Hyrule Warriors started with 15K, Bayo2 started with 12K.

<40K > Majora's mask <12K.

Dunno about anyone else, but none of those debuts are impressive.

MH4U > 16,733 (Gta5)

Besides that is pretty good for MH.

As for Zelda, it should be well over 20k. A remake of the less popular Main Zelda's. Not Amazing, but good debut's.

Wow look at Forza Horizon 2 still holding strong since being released in late September. Is this game being bundled in the UK, or are these stand along sales?

Thats an easy win for Sony. Evolve is a dud, Witcher isn't really as popular on the streets and it is on the forums.

3DS HW only 57% more than the previews week with new 3DS? In other word if it was 5k before it is around 7.5k this week which means less than any holiday week? Looks like bad advertising in UK tbh

You're reading it wrong. It gave a 57% boost to the total HW sold in the UK for that week. N3ds didn't just sell 5k lol. It probably sold around 20-30k.

Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

or just UK being UK. Its Nintendo's Weakest Country (well from the big ones i mean). Still bad though, but at least the SW is doing ok there.

As I said to nanzano, it's a 57% boost to total hardware sales in the Uk.

Ha. How quickly Evolve's DLC strategy has affected it, crazy. Game looks really good; I'd like it but I'm not buying any time soon.

Wonder how new 3DS sold. Software seems to have done alright.
