Doesn't really make a difference if the sales are just going to revert back to like 6-7k a week or two from now. One boost into 20k+ in a blue moon doesn't come close to cutting it.

Considering the state of gaming in Japan, I say that's OK. I'm thinking Xenoblade should have hit 100k though.



HollyGamer on 08 May 2015

it's OK, but i am expecting more actually :(

I'd say that's OK.

It's not terrible but bad.
23k with one of the biggest games (or the biggest?) in Japan this year.
PS4 and 3DS are doing such numbers weekly in Japan.

23k is very good if average weekly numbers are 7k.


Comparing it with last week Wii U numbers? Yes.
Comparing it with PS4/3DS numbers? No. 

PS4 sold less than WiiU this week (and it's first half of golden week) and 3DS didn't set the world on fire. Overall a pretty mediocre week in hardware sales. That this is golden week shows a problem.


3k difference and PS4 had no new game. I expected more from Wii U hardware.

WiiU got a big boost, how much more did you expect?


30k hardware and 100k Xenoblade X would be a good opening!

Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

I say all hardware this week in Japan was bad. Only one you could say was ok is PS3, because it released 9 years ago.

Its good bump thanks to XenobladeX and a new DQX expansion, but not much more then ok really.

If the system could sustain that it would be fine.
