Ding! Ding! Ding!
The PS4 is well past the phase where new software will drive hardware sales, its four years old in Japan and its price has been static for as long as I can remember. It needs a 5-10k Yen cut to move the needle.

You mean by county because you you mean region as in North America and Europe then surely you have to add the rest of Asia to it?
Anyway superb debut for spiderman. I'd guess with digital it's over 150k FW for Japan. Probably about half of what the UK sold including digital so that just shows you how important Japan is getting for Western games. Hopefully legs are good.
Ps4 has the top 3 software spots on lockdown this week. An unusual sight these days in Japan.
20k hardware. Another good week. Hopefully it hangs in there until the holiday season kicks off. |
Yeah I meant country. I'm hoping that a price-drop will help kick the average sale numbers for a while. I think price is key in Japan. Still does well around the rest of the world especially as the software keeps cranking out. I think software is fine in Japan. Could be better but the yen version of $199 to $249 there is needed.
I was actually expecting drops all around due to the earthquake. Gonna be interesting to see if there's any change in Splatoon 2's legs after September 19th.
I'm surprised by Spiderman sales. Good show.
God bless You.
My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+
When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

Good number for Spider-Man, but nill impact on HW.

Thanks for posting this. That is good to know.
Does anyone know how Spiderman ranks with other top Japanese releases for 2018? I would guess Monster Hunter World sold better FW. Does this make Spiderman #2 so far?
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

Why aren't there any Xbox games on that list? They should include themselves. 🤗

Bingo. Been saying this for ages. A big price cut is over a year due by now. And the funny thing is that Sony might wait till next year.
