Unfortunate for Street Fighter 5 (worldwide), hopefully Capcom can right the ship, which I think they will.

Neogaf is reporting that there are shortages for Vita and that the preorders for the Starter Bundle coming in about two weeks is high (even though its limited time only) so I don't see its numbers going down.

PS4 shows no real signs of slowing down either, especially if games like the division have a chance to pad its numbers.

Wii U only sold 6k last year, so even when stock returns to normal, I dont see it that much above current numbers, even with Splatoon.

Maybe Pokken can change things up? 

What did Japan had last year in the same time? MP 10? Xenoblade? 



Pocky Lover Boy!

So including digital AoT does about 170k FW. Much much better than expected after the abysmal Comg showing.

Setsuma also out did what it looked like doing.

Street fighter is bad. Hopefully it has some legs.

Kancolle one of the biggest vita launches.

Vita hardware and ps4 especially are great!

LOOK AT SPLATOON!!!!

That people is what you call LEGS!
- A NEW IP! (No manga or anime needed before it releases)
- ON A DYING CONSOLE!
- SHOOTER Genre

Hopefully more currently owned Wii U owners in japan will finally realize on what they are missing out!

which is sold for much less than any PS4/PS3 AAA game



Why i left PC gaming

 

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

Excuses. 

its a fact PS4/PS3 games cost 27% more than the top of the line Wii U games. Splatoon costs 50$ while Attack on Titan costs 69$.

Splatoons total slaes generated 64.2$ million , while Attack on Titan generated 9.9$ Million on day 1. PlayStation would be almost always number 1 if you would calculate every week in Japan when it comes to money.

I find it impossible to predict Japanese shopping habits. I thought the PS4 would sell at least another 20k more than that. They're still good numbers though.



 

The PS5 Exists.

No they wouldn't, last time I checked nintendo gets most of the profits. Sony doesn't aka it's third party. 

 

That said just look at the yearly sales, it's no contest (in terms of profits)
