Who in Japan does not have a 3DS yet? How can it constantly outsell the vita when yt?the vita has more games as of late.....not including this week obviously.

Also nice that 3DS had the top game this week. I wonder how long Monster hunter, yokai and Dragon quest can hold it up though?

Kids who are just now old enough to buy a console.  people rebuying because their original broke.  There's 2 reasons why it still sells.  I'm sure there's more.

PS4 did great. However, I'm a bit disappointed by Dark Souls 3's numbers. I was expecting at least 250k.

With digital it will be close.

Also, snowball effect. If everyone arounds you has one, you may end up buying one too.

Growth for the series?  You had high expectations given the current Japanese market!  Asian sales should see big growth though.  So overall it's probably going to be very good news.

Its not high expectations, he thinks the game sold well. Its just that COMG+YSO got many believing the game would do much better. Thats all.

YSO predictions are based on COMG numbers.
