Steep drop for ps4 as expected for me...
Ps4 since mid January till previous week,was getting 2 or more game releases every week,major or relevant at most and they were boosting the sales or retain them high(40ks/32k+),a fact that misled some people...
We should always wait for drought or not relevant game releases weeks to come to conclusions! Does ps4 have a relevant game release for this week?If not,I expect further drop,if that not happens then ps4 might got a 22-24k baseline,which is decent or something more than decent,since we are talking about a home console and Japan!

It's got Dark Souls 2. So that may help a bit.

I thik a lot of souls fans already jumped on with bloodbourne plus ds2 is predicted to do less than 20k on ps4 according to YSO.

I said the same!:P

Mr officer are you dazzled by the ratio of xenoblade 3D?It ended up with 26p on comg and sold 57k,which translates to 1:2200 ratio...

So... I just realised that neither version of Rodea is even in top 30 on Famitsu.  Blimey.  Poor game :(

Otherwise... decent but not great from SRW, series is done for now anyway so I guess it doesn't matter too much.

Good result from Xenoblade in my opinion.

Steep drop from Sword Art Online, sadly, and Disgaea is completely gone.  Boo :(

Minecraft legging nicely and pretty good result from EDF, imo.

Hardware wise... guess PS4 revival is over until the holidays.  Lol.

It dropped a lot because last week and the week before it (and the week before that again ) had tons of new games releasing. Last week 4 new PS4 games released, which in total sold ~250k. This week 1 new PS4 game released, which sold 21k. That's why there was a steep decline from last week to this week. The decline will continue next week, but it won't be as steep.

Indeed is what i said...

Withouth games, the PS4 basis will be 12,000/15,000.

If you recall, that's actually double the ps3's week to week. Quite good. A million a year in a country that usually does a total of 3-5m per console.

I thik a lot of souls fans already jumped on with bloodborne!Am I wrong?:P The game doesn't seem to have some steam on comg but miracles happen!Look at xenoblade 3D 26points=57k sales f@cking 1:2200 ratio WOW!:p

Well, Bloodborne surely is a great game and definitely a lot of souls fans jumped on, but dark souls is heavily inspired by the hit manga series Berserk, which is a cult phenomenon in Japan. It's possible that there are yet these fans left to jump on. That's entirely questionable however, if they would be willing to buy a ps4 for a game they likely already had on ps3.

EDIT: Also, big drops second week are normal, especially for Japan. Huge drops are not uncommon.

The Wii U should win golden week. Would be awful if it lost when it gets DQX V3 and XCX in that week.

I expect both over 20k and possibly over 30k
