First 52 Week Sales:

Wii U 1,200,339

PS4 1,049,426

PS4 is doing better than the PSV btw.


Thanks!

How long until do you think until it trends ahead of the wii u? What was its baseline around the year mark? I can't remember it getting many 20k+ weeks, though I could be remembering wrong.

 

EDIT: can to can't



hoggin' all the action, I see...

That's not a bad opening for Majora's Mask, especially considering that it is a remake of a game that was not extremely popular in the first place at a point when Japan is not very fond of the series/genre. Even if the legs are not as great as some other Nintendo games, I can see this selling better than Link Between Worlds, and maybe only slightly less than Ocarina of Time 3D.

Random Thought: Why are people saying that Grezzo has not done much over the past four years? Majora's Mask got a much more extensive makeover than Ocarina of Time, Grezzo also worked on Four Swords Anniversary and Streetpass Garden, and signs suggest that they've also been working on something else for a while. They apparently hired people to help write scripts and design levels in 2014, something that does not seem to correspond to Majora's Mask 3D.

You are remembering wrong, outside holidays, 20k was very rare for WiiU, only Mario Kart did that, but only 20k.

 

 

PS4 is really impressive, pretty good numbers despite no games yet, the following weeks will be very interesting



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

Whoops! I meant 'I can't remember it getting many 20K+ weeks'

Thanks for the confirmation though, PS4 future looking much brighter in Japan.

I was hoping 7DS would do better. The manga is fantastic, I'd like to see the franchise grow. Oh well....it looks like the stock is pretty low, so hopefully there's some hope for it.

And Zelda...*sheds a happy tear*

Lately I've become so enthralled with Japanese culture due to gaming. Japan is the best.
