I'm kind of surprised at Fallout 3's sales. Didn't expect it to do so well in Japan.

This one obviously underperformed. What is it by chance?

LocoRoco 2 bombed hard :( Unfortunatly with absolutly no advert in the EU and a less then favorable US audinence, this game will fail misserably :( THis and probably Patapon 2 to...



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

27k for '428: Fuusa Sareta Shibuya de'. Not too bad for the genre, considering in which situation the japanese market currently is. That is, for a game granted with a perfect score from Famitsu, that's not particularly impressive. It will most certainly blast its creator expectation still, so no worry.

Pretty nice debut for Fallout 3. It will most certainly sell-out its first shipment during the first week.

Otherwise, it seems all the other released games are having a hard time (when looking at the sell-through percentage).

Pretty harsh for LocoRoco 2. And isn't 'Sekai no Gohan Shaberu! DS Oryouri Navi' the sequel of 'Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What to Eat?' that is selling so well in Europe ? Apparently, it didn't convince its japanese audience. There must not be enough people there that can still afford food in the first place I think. Just in case: this is a joke.

And, my, I'm still digesting the really below average start of 'Rune Factory: Frontier' on Wii. 18k... sigh, that's depressing...

44k for Oblivion in it's first week. So the sales probably won't be better... well as far as I know Oblivion wasn't contaminated with radiation, so this should be an explanation.



Go 428!



Bet - "PES 2009 (PS3) will sell (closer to) 150k first week in Japan" - Pooperscopper
"It will sell closer to 125k" - Me I agree.
ME = OWNED :(

End of '09 Predictions:

Wii: 78 million
X360: 35 million
PS3: 27 million

I wonder who buy things like Fallout 3 in Japan.. Sometimes I think it are some Americans/Europeans who live there who buy it =p.
