Oh, So vgchartz hasn't updated the numbers. My mistake.

Ps4 is on fire in japan, i expect even more next week. 50k at least
It'll be interesting to see PS4's sales after Bloodborne, its lineup is pretty barren from then up until The Phantom Pain.

I think you're not really understanding here.
Media Create do their own tracking and have their own LT sales for Type-0.
Famitsu do their own tracking and have their own LT sales for Type-0.
VGC do their own tracking and have their own LT sales for Type-0.
When comparing numbers, just pick one source and stick to it. Famitsu, for example, might have Type-0 higher than VGC, but they also might have Type-0 HD higher too etc.
I doubt VGC does actually tracking in Japan.
They probably pick Famitsu, MC or Dengeki numbers and change them up a bit, for what its worth they don't copy paste them.

No. It just means different trackers have different numbers. By looking at this very thread, it should be obvious that not all of them agree.

Back in the day when ioi only worked on VGC, there was a Japan Preview put out every Sunday (US time, Monday in JP) that had estimations with the intial data they received from a small chain of stores. It was similar to COMG data translated to actual numbers. They stopped doing it because the guy who did left the site.

lol. I agreed it'd take a big drop, but it has at most 40% of it's FW shipment to get through. There are far worse offenders this week alone.
Somewhat suprising boost for PS4 there. But I suppose with BFH and Type 0 both selling decent numbers perhaps not so surprising after all. But still nearly 50K hardware sales on the back of a PSP remaster and a western shooter, that is surely a sign that PS4 has a strong presence in this market after a fairly quiet 2014.

Prediction: MC/Famitsu will publish their final March weekly numbers before VGC publishes its first March numbers for Japan.

Thanks for the clarification.
