Forums - Sales - Japan: Famicom Mini outsold PS4 Pro in opening week for both consoles

DirtyP2002 on 16 November 2016

I bet a lot of people, even Japanese people (!), would like a more powerful NES more than the Switch or the Wii U.

Now they might have an item to get at least SOME of the xmas-money spent and they fucked up with a really bad distribution.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I mean it nearly outsold the Wii U's first week lol
And probably would have without stock issues.

65K ps4 pro sales in Japan? that's really impressive, I was expecting around 20k as I know Japan don't care about such things.

I'm surprised, but nice to see the greatest console of all time getting some more love

Well the Famicom Mini has games =p.

An interesting comparison, but not really a fair one. I mean the NES is only $60 and has 30 of some of the greatest games ever created on it.

Well, it seems like PS4Pro extra power wasn't needed in Japan... let's see when FF XV launch

I honestly dind't expect the mini to do so well, but it's not really comparable with the Pro :p
