Forums - Sales - Famitsu 2007-05-14/ 2007-05-20

Sales for Odin & Shining both disappointing. Both in the most-wanted. And that proves that famitsu readers have a very minor part in the Japanese market...

I'm going to laugh hysterically at Larry if Forza pushes the 360 over the PS3, even if it's only for one week.

 Not gonna happen, sorry bud....


There is really only 6,000 systems seperating the two systems right now and even a very minor game release can boost system sales by that much. Certainly, I wouldn't expect the XBox 360 to surpass the PS3 for long but at current sales rates there are several games comming out for the XBox 360 in Japan which could push system sales past 10,000 units for at least a week; in the same timeframe there are no game releases for the PS3 so sales could drop to 5,000 units a week.


My prediction:

Trusty Bell will be the one to push the 360 past the PS3 for at least a week.

lol

what a joke.

June 6th sees Folksouls being released in Japan.Expect a massive bump in sales that week.

June 14th sees NGS being released.

i expect ps3 to outsell x360 atleast 10:1.

BTW neither Forza 2 nor Trusty bell are in the Famitsu most wanted chart.

lol whats more funny is that some xfanboys are hoping x360 sales to go up by 5k next week.

lollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

a game like dead or alive could not move 5k units for x360.

how would a game which is graphically wayy inferior to GTHD and is not even in the top100 jap chart move 5k extra units.

lolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

x360 vs ps3 in japan last week.

28 8,376 (-8%) 924,490
76 2,427 (+5%) 388,497

joke of the millenium

FORZA 2 would move 5k x360s.

in reality:- Forza 2 moves 0 units.

the old x360 owners buy it .

followed by Minna golf in July which is predicted to sell atleast 200k--300k copies and move 50k--100k hardware.

Minna golf is at 9 on famitsu top chart and would be climbing to 2nd or 3rd before the release week.

 



June,2007 onslaught, right larry?



Around the Network

Right now, larry only uses the famitsu charts to predict onslaught. While we have already discussed that this does not translate to actual sales, he is, at least, backing up his speculation with some evidence.



Minna golf is at 9 on famitsu top chart and would be climbing to 2nd or 3rd before the release week. Seriously, stop it. Its a frikkin golf game. No sane person will spend $500 bucks for a good looking golf game that doesn´t even have motion sensing. It will sell probably 20k-50k, not more, and won´t push ps3´s. Besides, according to your logic, a good placed game in Famitsu will sell 200k-300k copies in a 900k base console. Well, check how Persona 3 and Odin Sphere are doing. They´ll both stay at 150k probably. in a console with a 20 million userbase. And were better ranked. So plz...stop it

shut up!!!

atleast know something before posting trash.

minna is over DMC 4 and FF13 in the charts.

Gundam Musou being a small budget game did quite decent.

However Blue Dragon which was on par with with FF13 according to Famitsu sold 180k copies till date ( at 20$ only per copy).

minna would move atleast 100k ps3s.

dont forget that neither Trusty Bell or Forza2 are in the top 100 Japanese most wanted list.

We'll shut up when you stop being an ass.  But since that's not going to happen, we'll keep talking.
