The 1Tb PS4 releases tomorrow in Japan plus Fallout 4 soon afterwards. after a slow start to this year and lackluster prior year, the PS4 is looking good. 2016's baseline should be higher hopefully Sony sneaks in another price cut.


Retail releases this week are Bloodborne: complete edition and minecraft ps4. Bloodborne should get a nice bump and minecraft ps4 should have good legs at retail although they'll probably be half of the Vita's.  

 

The week after its rainbow 6 and then fallout 4 is the big one after that.  those games plus the new model and hype for big 2016 should give ps4 a respectable December and set it up nicely for a great 2016!

Good night! I knew MHX would do well, but that hardware boost at this stage is really impressive.

Indeed, a much bigger boost than other similarly high profile releases have provided lately. I guess it's a killer app for upgrading from a regular 3DS to an N3DS for many people to have the dual analogue support etc?



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Well there is always circle pad pro. For $20 you get better dual analogs than the stub on the new 3DS.

Does MHX have some N3DS "enhancements" to though? I'm more thinking how it spiked hardware so much.

3DS still down 31% YoY. PS4 up 32% YoY.

Good, wiiu is also up YoY and Vita is down YoY. I guess that means consoles rule Japan now because who needs hardware #s when we have YoY %s lol
