Forums - Sales - Japan (Media Create) physical sales database (PS4, Vita & WiiU up so far)

Ahoy.

In my quest to keep up with all things Japan sales related, I've been compiling a database of sales of games physically released in Japan.  Thought it'd be worth sharing here since this is a sales site.  You can find it here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NrEt9TbacSSU-pf0YoEtgx_pI-MpLMxdcShM6K6sgHg/edit?usp=sharing

(UPDATE: NOW INCLUDES PS4, VITA & WIIU TABS ALONG THE BOTTOM)

I'll be updating periodically throughout the year.

Some notes:

  • Sales are tracked year-by-year and SKU-by-SKU (so two or more different versions of one game can chart in the same year) so you can see how things sold over time.  I'll add a first week sales column when I get round to it.
  • Sales are up to date up until the end of 2014 using Media Create top 1000.  Currently awaiting 2015 Media Create top 1000.
  • Any 2015 Vita games are up to date based on the last time they charted in Media Create top 20.  Will not be doing this for other consoles
  • All SKU's are combined here - that means extra versions (such as Soul Sacrifice's double pack) and re-releases (such as budget versions).
  • Any (re) column indicates a budget re-release; any (ex) column indicates extra SKU.
The plan is to expand this to all consoles eventually, but I'll be doing 8th gen consoles first.

You should show it to Kylee.
Kylee has a lot of info of several sales numbers for a lot of stuff on Japan.

You could post the list here as well not only the link.

Nice work, by the way.

 

There's 332 games and the sales are constantly being updated.  I also think the table would be too wide to fit on here.



Great work Kresnik! :)



So, I've already updated this. There's a WiiU tab along the bottom that's up to date to end of 2014 (won't be doing 2015 for this console until we get top 1000).  Luckily there were only 65 games to track :P

Will do PS4 next, then will tackle 3DS eventually since I'm expecting that to be a mammoth task. Then 7th gen consoles.

Gonna try and turn it into a physical sales database for Media Create when I have the time and drive to do it.



Very ambitious and very cool!

And as any anonymous animals who may have been looking the past few minutes may have noticed, PS4 software update to the end of 2014 too :)

And that means a lot coming from the king of COMG and NPD!

(Cheers Boutros!)



Amazing job, Kresnik!

Well, FFX/X-2 HD sold much better than I thought. Also, Main~Craft is selling so well... that makes me wonder when, or where, it will stop!



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Awesome work so far!



Didn't Chris compile this recently?
