It didn't "bomb", but it's a poor result.

Also poor results from Fire Emblem and Genkai Tokki. The latter series will probably be killed off now - the switch from Vita -> PS4 didn't save it.



Worth noting that Hyrule Warriors first week outsold both versions of Fire Emblem warriors together ... And Zelda isn't particularly big in Japan.

I guess I'm not the only one who wasn't too pleased with the roster :p



To be honestly, nearly everything did poorly this week. Sen and Fire Emblem should have done much, much better; Genkai Tokki is pretty much a dead IP now; Coven port shifted bugger all on PS4 etc.

The two saving graces - Dragon Ball Switch re-charted after a re-stock; and FIFA is pretty much flat on last year's entry so that isn't bad either.



Good hardware for Switch, PS4 holding up around 25-30k, which is certainly solid. Switch software pretty decent all-round...except for FE Warriors. Although Switch is still in its fairly early days, not matching Hyrule Warriors is pretty pathetic

I was waiting for your overwhelming enthusiasm. 

I thought to myself when I saw that 70k figure: ''Damn, Jranation will be over the moon.''



There's a version of Fifa that's doing better in Japan than the UK.... Lol



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

Thanks!Yeah, its not a bad result, but its certainly dissapointing.Hopefully Falcon can recoup the losses in Japan with the west sales, as Cold Steel starts to come to the west.
