We don't know the digital ratio so it is irrelevant at this point. Until we have definitive digital numbers, they're no sense in bringing them up.

We're never going to have definitive digital numbers, but when we get estimates it's going to be Famitsu, and the drop is much less severe on that tracker (I believe it's ~54k for Cyber Sleuth and ~52k for Next Order).

Pokken did not do so well as I thought. I expected close to Xenoblade X numbers. I wonder why the hype died near the end.

Good question.  I also thought it might do X numbers but it fell short.  It had a low sell through of its initial (large)  shipment so maybe retailers are expecting legs.

Of course they are expecting legs, Xenoblade is that kind of extremely front-loaded game that falls after 2 weeks, this is a completely different beast.

And is already the second best opening for a fighter game on a current gen, is not so bad.

And that sell through is on yellow, is bad when is on green, this mean they have sold around half of the stock, and for a game that everybody knows it will have legs, thats completely fine.



[PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition (Sony Computer Entertainment) {2015.03.19} (¥2.400) - 9.136 / 702.183 (+8%)

Longest game charting in the top 10 and it sees a bloody +8% increase on a week when no hardware increases. Minecraft vita is the king of legs and the definition of it too!

@goodnightmoon I'm not saying it will plummet like X did. Let's hope it has legs and can shift it's stock.

That would be Animal Crossing, actually.

OT: Pokken definitely did less than I imagined about a month ago, but given the current state of the fighting genre in Japan and the fact that it's a spinoff, I think it did pretty well for itself. Its success will be determined by its legs though.

What would be amazing is if minecraft sells more than the PSVita at this time in a single week. Like Splatoon and the Wii U

After selling over 4 million, that game just keeps popping out of no where.

That's a Nintendo Selects release in its launch week in the charts.

Ah yeah! Its awesome how many people are still interested in buying after many years its been released (I guess its the cheaper price) 

 

But I do sometimes see the original one pop up in the top 20 on MC, OR top 30 on Famitsu.

Yeah it didn't flop but I expected more like you.  

 

That animal crossing select release isn't in the top 10. No other game in the top 10 increased for no other reason than just insane legs like minecraft vita did.
