SRC just going the same way as quickrick. I mean his ramblings are creating memes, just like the infamous cliff! Even given the similarities, i don't think it's Quickricks' alt. He has more posting similarities to Fatslob tbh.

It's almost laughable how clear it is he's an alt, but able to get away with it

I think it's reportable but somehow we need proof :O

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

I love how in these threads we're watching Playstation get steamrolled by the Switch week after week in realtime, yet someone takes it upon themselves to be a Playstation spindoctor here of all places.
It seems to be a VGChartz constant that there is always that one guy, whether it be Quickrick, Lawlight, Ninjablade, etc.

src is not quickrick. No idea who Fatslob is. He went under some different names for a while (2018) but that wasn't one I think.

No, i don't think he's quickrick either. Fatslob had a very condescending way of posting and seemed quite educated but his problem was he was quite often wrong! He got perma'd a few months back.

Honestly my interpretation of World Vs Rise is not that one is the main series or not, but its that the main series is split into two seperate entities.

... That being said, if rise sticks closer to the classic formula it would be obvious that world is more of a spinoff.

thats not to say a spinoff can't sell more then the mainline titles... (looks at persona, a spinoff of SMT)

Maybe because the titles is Okami HD...

I like how you forget the PS2 SKU as well...

I dunno, prob another exclusive deal Nintendo paid for. They seem to be doing that a lot for the smaller games, as those are the only ones they can get. The big exception being MH Rise, but its also coming to PC. Further Capcom leaks show two timed SW exclusives and unsurprisingly they seem to be A-AA games.

Not really, its common sense another SKU will add to sales. My point is that the JP publishers, Capcom, SE rely on Playstation more than all other platforms combined. This gives Sony a lot of leverage on them, hence why Playstation has been getting so many third party exclusivity deals:

Capcom: SF5, RE7 VR, MHW, Deep Down

SE: FF/KH collection, Star Ocean, Scarlet Saga, KH 2.8, FF7R, Project Athia, FF16

1st bold: Wii was 7th gen just like ps3/xbox 360, don't bring 6th gen here.

2nd bold: Deep Down won't be on ps4 for now, all of other games are/will be on PC too and have way cheaper price compared to ps4 ver so meaningless.

Okay sales for Switch, hope it can go up in December. Pretty big drop for HW tho it seems.



noshten on 03 December 2020

xMetroid usually holiday boost starts Week 50, I anticipate 200K hardware henceforth

Momotaro is already 5th best selling 3rd Party game on the Switch and its just it's second week on the market.
Age of Calamity escapes niche status . Ring Fit Adventure and New Horizon will start to challenge Momotaro next week



Farsala on 03 December 2020

I guess all 3 consoles will just have a constant (small) supply until the end of the year.

PS4 version is obviously affected by the PS3 version: many people have already played Okami HD on PS3.

I love how you had to resort to using SD versions just because Playstation was beating Nintendo handily.

Again, Capcom has already said that MHR is the next mainline title. If there would be a MHW2, then just as a spinoff title.

This could not be further from the truth LOL

https://www.polygon.com/2017/11/1/16585780/why-monster-hunter-world-isnt-called-monster-hunter-5

MHW was called MH5 internally and now publicly. It was made by the mainline team with the prior mainline director.

MHW2 is called MH6 internally at Capcom.

https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/11/rumour_massive_capcom_leak_reveals_dragons_dogma_2_street_fighter_6_new_monster_hunter_onimusha_more

MH Rise is made by the Generations team.

Never seen someone get so much wrong and still act like they're right.

The data shows my conclusion above everyone else's:

Capcom: MHW >50% sales on PS, Okami HD >= 50% sales on PS, DMCV >50% sales on PS

SE: FF 70-80% sales on PS, KH 70-80% sales on PS, FF7R 100% sales on PS as of now

Playstation had an utterly dominating 66% of Capcom packaged games sales.

Seems like you guys are the one reading the data wrong.

Keep this same energy when MH Rise and stories release next year. Compare the numbers and % then from Capcom.

The energy of actually looking at data instead going off ones own biases. Sure.

Capcom has RE8, Pragmata, MH Stories, MH Rise and AA next year. It will definitely be more even amongst PS4/5, PC and SW, however as I pointed out prior with actual data, spinoff MH is the only major Capcom franchise Nintendo has a hold on.

Sony has a hold on RE, MHW, SF, DD, DMC, and presumably their new IP Pragmata.

And I love how you need to have a delayed launch of the Nintendo version to get Playstation look good against the Switch.

Seriously, both the Wii and the Switch versions were late ports, but that's something you don't want to take into account as it would invalidate your claim. And yet you still needed 2 consoles to beat just one.

Ehm...

Did you seriously needed to look for a rumor to try and invalidate what is already known? And a shady one at that, because that one looks wayyy too good to be true. Also, it used both Resident Evil and Biohazard despite both of them being 2 different names for the same game series.

Besides, the only thing that was actually leaked was that there will be a port of MHR... but for PC, not any Playstation platform: https://www.vg247.com/2020/11/16/monster-hunter-rise-pc-resident-evil-village-release-date-capcom-leaks/

So looks like the Playstation had just a short stint with the Monster Hunter license and went back to Nintendo now...

Also, again, mainline:

"much like World, Rise retains all the DNA of the monster hunter series that we know and love and is not considered a derivative or spin-off title"

Thats not a rumour. That's an internal data leak, that Capcom themselves admitted to the authorities, with said authorities now trying to find the cybergroup responsible.

Capcom themselves calling MHW2 MH6 means this "debate" is over.

SRC, do you think MH Rise will sell more than MH World PS4? Reason why I ask is because I don't think it matters if Rise is mainline or not. It will send the Switch sky high regardless. Like if its not mainline do you think it will flop or something? I just don't see the point of mentioning Rise not being mainline when its likely to have the same effect mainline or not.

MH World PS4 will sell around 9.5-10 million LTD. I don't think MHR SW will reach that. MHR is also coming to PC. Will be interesting to see its PC adoption vs World's.

MHR PC + SW could definitely reach that. Capcom's internal sales projection is 9.X million.
