PS4 on top again with good sales, things are starting to change finally in Japan

"Things" have been changing since last summer. A lot of people noticed it back then and were calling out the good sales of PS4 from summer onwards. Then there were this other group, people who thought 14k weekly sales were bad. These people were basicly asking for the PS4 to grow baseline over 10k out of nothing, it was never realistic or even moderately thought out expectation. I said it back then, PS4 will revitalize/stabilize home console market and take HW crown from 3DS early 2016. Now these good HW numbers are still tied to recent SW releases and PS4 will drop in the slower weeks to low 20k's or even slightly below 20k and it will still be good.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.

So DQ Builders has the biggest 2nd Week compare to any other vita game( + shortage and multiplat game ). LEGS CONFIRMED

2nd week, let's wait before legs! I think it'll have legs though, but it isn't set in stone. 

Besides shortages were a thing week 1, so good hold week 2 isn't something we can judge yet

Yeah but we have a SOLID reference here.....Mincraft!

PS4 putting in work.

Good 2nd week for DQB.



let's at least hope that 3DS will be over Vita and WiiU can be come back in stock in the next 2 weeks!

this is just bad management - no games - no news - no care and now no stock - WTH which company has ever had a products which is not selling out, out-of-stock?

This is so bad - like what? waiting for then next bundle?

What about normal versions?

I am speechless - this is far worst than low sales in my opinion!



Switch!!!

It's a high chance, not guaranteed. It still had around a 75% drop WoW. I'm just saying wait and see first. That's all :o

The Wii Us supply issues sure show how little Nintendo were expecting to sell in Japan.
If the Wii U weren't region locked they could just sell european Wii Us in Japan. :)

The market for the 3DS seems to be saturated. The New 3DS needs more exclusives, so that 3DS owners jump over.

The PS4 is doing really well. It probably will stay near or at the top most of the year.
The Vita also had another strong week.



Platforms: Wii U, New 3DS, PS4, PC

currently playing: 
 -Yoshi's Wooly World 
 -Pokemon X
 -Fire Emblem Fates

Wii U shortages are real!

from neogaf:

"Rakuten even confirmed there won't be stock until late February or even March."

"It is speculated about shortages in Wii U CPU's production. Mitsumi Electric Co. Ltd. supplies pieces for Wii U hardware and it seems, they are having problems to deliver them."

 

Ouchies, feb is going to be a really rough month for nintendo's Wii U in japan.

 

also:

As I said before... 2016 is the year the PS4 catches up to the Wii U in japan, lifetime sales and passes it.

a Rough month or two due to stock issues, is bound to accelerate that.



Wow at wiiu, dafuq! No supply crazy. Low month for Feb. Gonna mess up that Splatoon 10k+ :(

Agree with this 100%.  The way Nintendo has managed the Wii U has been...    weird, to say the least.  I mean, their strongest market and they decide not to ramp up the production over there? wtf is going on?
