Forums - Sales - Famitsu: 139k for PSP

Yeah losing Monster Hunter to the Wii is going to bite them in the ass hardcore style ;) But Monster Hunter seems like a game much better suited to a portable system in my opinion, so I'm not feeling the loss :)



From 0 to KICKASS in .stupid seconds.

Around the Network

looks like alot of Japanese gamers who were using the old PSPs with MH, decided to upgrade for the expansion.

Does anyone expect this game to have any legs?



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Sony are going to seriously regret losing the console Monster Hunter game..



"Sony are really going to regret losing MH on PS3 by the look of things"

I am just not sure that the assumption: Series is huge on Handheld --> Series will be huge on home console works I really doubt it.

 With Wii's online ability, you think what made PSP MH game so popular is going to translate to home console?



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

It's MH...of course it'll have legs.

And good for PSP.

 


is it a full game? I am still not sure if it is MHP2 + expansion, or just expansion.

To be fair I was was more commenting on why the developer is taking it to Wii.

Massive sales and interest on handheld in Japan - they love MH.

Massive sales and interest in Wii in Japan - they love their Wiis.

MH + Wii = unknown but likely to be big assuming they transfer game dynamic well to Wii.

MH + PS3 = unknown (and maybe never to be known) but again assuming it was transfered well they chance for big sales must have been there. 

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Wow ... PSP raped everyone this week :) Good to see that quality ( and popular ) games can push software and hardware too , even if its on the PSP :)

 Not in Europe... I still don't get how PSP is so bad here


In Europe games are having great legs in the 1-5k region . Just look at PSP games that have every number . They usually sell much better in Europe :)

 

BTW : Im doubting that MH3 will be that huge . It will be big , but the popularity of the serie will never translate as well to console as it did for handhelds ( PSP ) . Also , Im more thna shure , that afther one year of the games release for the Wii we will see a PSP port , that has all chances to sell more ...
