Forums - Sales - Japan Charts Week 15 (04/06/09 - 04/12/09)

Speaking about Deca Sports and other mini-games collection maybe they are victims of their own success ?
I mean first ones sold so well but do people who have them really need a new one - maybe they are perfectly happy still playing deca sports 1 ?

I'm suspicious about Deca Sports 2. The first one did 30,000 units day one and 65k week one.

It is possible this game could have really good legs and do 10k,15k, 20k week one...but thats still way down from the previous version. Given the larger base of the Wii for this kind of software (Wii itself, as well as Wii Fit, Wii Play, Mario & Sonic, Wii Sports, Wii Music all have higher totals now than they did for Deca Sports) I'm inclined to believe that a) one out of two people buying a new Wii buys a game like this which means b) when Wii sales were higher and these types of games were newer they sold much better but the interesting thing is they shipped 80,000 units - which means they expected it to be a big game too, as I had.

But, they probably didn't expect the game to launch against the Final Fantasy XIII demo either...or right before a Monster Hunter III demo. With the economy down and software generally terrible in Japan now I wonder if people are saving up for only their most wanted games (FFXIII and MH3).

 

 

we will find out soon, next week the PS 3 (thanks to FF XIII - demo) has a chance to outsell Wii YTD first time in history

2009 Total:
PS 3: 385 173
Wii: 418 612

 

i think its a bit impossible.. 33k + wotever Wii sells next week.. which will be around 15k.. so minimum 48 - 50k is required by PS3 to outsell Wii YTD
