No, he can't.

I didnt think so.

It's a figure of speech. If you were around in 2014/15 this number was doubted by almost everybody except me. I took so much shit for saying 8m was the minimum and I'd hopes it would do 10m+.

Why does it have to end when ps4 is starting to gain momentum and slowly catching up to switchs baseline of 50k. Looks like switch wont be passing ps4 total in japan any time soon if ps4 baseline is around 35 to 40k

You have to know why PS4 gain a lot in the last couple weeks. It had Retail Sales + Lots of great selling games. It will go back to below 20k soon. Unless Sony does an official price cut. 



Pocky Lover Boy!

It's quite fitting that the last ever mediacreate has the ps4 hitting the 8m milestone. Remember folks, 90% around here doubted that number. It beats the ps3 to 9m aligned too so can't wait for that. Rip.

Lol could you link me that 90% statistic?

it's trump statistics, make it up on the spot and stick with it ;)

So you can't provide he proof, got it.

Dark Souls 3: 210k
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice: 158k
Bloodborne: 153k

Sekiro did a good job for a new IP, the perfect way to end Media Create with the release of this masterpiece and PS4 reaching the 8M milestone!
Thank you Media Create for making my Wednesday's more enjoyable for years, it was always a pleasure to see the weekly charts!

Wasn't your original projection 10 million?

According to this poll ( http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=214889 ), 50% of people were in the 10m+ camp, 66% in the 8m+ camp.

Has Gust even planned to make Lulua the start of a new trilogy? It's supposedly game 4 that follows up in the Arland trilogy (Rorona, Totori, Meruru), so that might be all it was ever supposed to be.

No, I'm just assuming since they haven't done a non-Atelier-trilogy since the PS2 era (even Mysterious that was something fans seemed to hate got three games). 

I guess nothing can be assumed about it given how it's selling in Japan these days though!

Atelier Nelke was a crossover/spin off game. So who knows what they'll be doing anymore. I'm just glad that it was able to beat Lydie and Suelle.

PS4 battling hard even in its 6th year in a country that prefers portability over any other.

Sony could try and launch a portable PS4 that plays games at 720p, exclusively in japan. Japanese developers would support it and could be hugely successful.
