Let's all have a moment of silence for Chibi-Robo.

Let's face it, Nintendo send this game to its doom.


Yep, it's pretty sad what they did with the series. The one on Gamecube seemed pretty neat I would buy it if it weren't so expensive, but from what I understand none of its sequels are like it.

Plus the new game just seemes average for a platformer so there really is nothing special about it.

The funny thing about this is that, as bad as Chibi Robot 3DS has opened in Japan, it's not the worst opening week for Nintendo 3DS game, not by a long shot. Codename S.T.E.A.M. didn't even reach 2.000 copies in its first week.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Nice second week after price cut hold for PS4. My guess is a medium term weekly baseline around 20K.

Wow that diffrence in the charts between the trackers. The gap in actual numbers isn't even that big, but the charts are completely diffrent.
Very nice numbers for ps4 and vita, next week is going to be interesting.
Also nice to see the WiiU above 10k still, hopefully it can keep it up. It needs holyday bundle announcements and maybe a pricecut soon.
Splatoon and Mario Maker continue with the gorgeous legs.

Why they no buy Arslan Senki Musou? Bad Japanese people!


Why buy that game? They should have made Dynasty Tactics 3 or Kessen 4!

Anime just not popular enough.

Why not all 3? :o


In all seriousness I hear from Koei fans that Arslan does not bring much new and has limited character choice. Making it have pretty low appeal aside from the Arslan fans. Not to mention the overload of Warriors games recently. Samurai warriors 4 empires released just a month ago

PS4 + Vita = Sony domination.

That's strange considering I've heard quite the opposite. From what I've seen the anime is actually pretty popular and with a 2nd season confirmed that does indeed seem to be the case. I mean, unpopular anime don't usually get 2nd seasons, especially if the first was 20+ episodes long!

Not every show that gets multiple seasons is mega popular.Generally only needs to sell 3-4k copies of the DVDs to break even.
