I have no logical explanation for PS3 selling 50k this week

TGS09?



It (PS3's market share) might hit 30%, but definently not more. ~ Neo

All I can think of is Silver Week which might have slowed down the drop in sales

silver week was a week before (TOV launch week).

So Silver week worked for the 2nd slim week and TOV for the 3d one? It would be funny, and impossible i think.



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Next week (09/28 - 10/04) for the PS3 in Japan:

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 (popular over there)
Another Gundam (also very popular over there)
Trinity Universe (a new RPG)

 

 as well.

I expect 15k maximum only for Dynasty Warriors: Multi Raid special

I expect 30k maximum only for Ninja gaiden sigma 2.

I expect 5k maximum only for trinity universe.

 

So no big release this week.

The true big release are bayonetta, tekken 6 on 29 october, and dbz raging blast on 12 november.

The very big release is pes 2010 on 5 november.

Finally, the very very very big release is FF13 on 17 december.

 

Edit: i forget assassin's creed 2 on 3 december, which will be a big release.

First week Famitsu sales comparisons:

Dynasty Warriors: Multi Raid special comparisons:

28/05/09 [PS3] Dynasty Warriors 6 Empires: 78,680
26/02/09 [PSP] Dynasty Warriors Multi Raid: 227,309
11/11/07 [PS3] Dynasty Warriors 6: 176,180     

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 comparisons:

05/06/08 [360] Ninja Gaiden 2: 27,215
14/06/07 [PS3] Ninja Gaiden Sigma: 40,886

Trinity Universe comparison:

25/09/08 [PS3] Cross Edge: 27,652

I'd expect DW Multi Raid Special to fall somewhere between DW Empires and DW6.

Sequels are usually more front loaded than the first, so with a far higher installed base and high weekly hardware sales NGS2 really should be expected to perform better than the original.

Trinity Universe is the same niche cross-over type game as Cross Edge, installed base and weekly hardware sales don't have much affect on sales of niche games like this, so it should be expected to perform similar.

First week I expect;

Dynasty Warriors: Multi Raid special: 100k+
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2: 50k+
Trinity Universe: 30k



poor wii.

ps3 eating up sales.

Well, software sales are slightly higher than expected.

I figure the long holiday and the TGS showings helped.
