DSi 37,495
PS3 23,351

Xbox 360 7,016
DS Lite 6,374
PS2 4,524

 

Gotta love PSP sales, if they release that new slide/touchscreen model which is only a rumour, it's gonna destroy everything else in Japan...

 

Big drop for PS3, and a really poor HW bump from MH3 demo, Wii really is in a dire state...

 

 

 

 

There, that's better :D

Besides there's 2 big SE games coming up for the DS in Japan, so I doubt PSP will get much attention during the next 3 months.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.

Yep I doubt any console will go above 35k for Golden Week, they could actually stay bellow 30k...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

Gotta love PSP sales, once they release that new slide/touchscreen model, it's gonna destroy everything else in Japan...

 It's not that bad a bump; granted it IS smaller than one would like, but it's still above last week's total, where it was around the 12K mark.  And seriously, this was just a port with only a demo.  And as for the Wii's state, it's not that dire, since MHG proved that yes, 3rd-party software CAN sell.

A movie + a demo gave the PS3 a 45k bump.

A port of a game + a demo gave the Wii a 5k boost...

And the PSP has three big SE games coming up. Two for this year I believe.

Wii doesn't seem to be recovering. I doubt Golden week will help any home console at all now.

 

Well Golden week is supposed to be for family and kids and stuff, I expect the Wii to rise past the PS3.

You don't seem to be as big of a Nintendo hater as people are making you out to be.....

The new PSP is just a rumor, sure, but it's the worst kept secret in the industry, even worse than Bioshock going to PS3 and MvC going to PSN/XBL. We all know it's coming.

But you're right, DQIX and KH DS will keep the DSi numbers pretty high, and I'm not sure the PSP has any games of that caliber on their system. I doubt FFXIII Agito or KHBBS comes out this fiscal year, Parasite Eve 3 should come out this year though. Well I take that back, if MHP3 (as it's been rumored) comes out this year and if Gran Turismo Mobile (as it's been rumored) comes out this year, then the PSP has 2 pretty big titles as well, but that's just rumors, and right now the DS does have the advantage on the big blockbuster games.

I’m happy when Tres is wrong, in fact when I read his posts I picture that guy on the side of the street yelling how the world will end or a Jehovah ’s Witness knocking on my door.

Not that I have a problem with Tres, the hobo or the Jehovah’s Witness, just that I find them all equally amusing and convenient when they are incorrect.

Case in point FFCC:CB, I’m happy it’s not vaporware thus I’m happy Tres was wrong about it being Vaporware and for clarity he could be right and say that FFCC:CB is not Vaporware then I would be happy that he was correct.

If someone is offended by his usual fare then that’s their own issue.

LOL. I was wrong about FFCC:CB, I admitted it once I came back if I remember correctly. But you don't give me credit when I'm right ;)
