Media Create Sales: Week 3, 2015 (Jan 12 - Jan 18)

 

[Sammy Samusu]

02. [3DS] The Legend of Legacy <RPG> (FuRyu) (¥6.458)- 53.974 / NEW

XSEED, please.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Go Kirby go

 

[L~A]

Great debut for Legacy, and Kirby did as I expected. Legacy had no impact on 3DS, but that's not really a surprise (at all).

Curious about the upcoming weeks.

 

[Kandinsky]

Is Explorers having stock problems?, thats a weird trend.

 

[kewlmyc]

So Zestiria sold a little less than 400k?

 

[Bladenic]

Confused, where did the 400k Zesty come from? Unless it meant shipped. Either way Zesty sold way less than Xillia (and I can't remember Xillia 2 sales but I think it sold more too).

 

[Mpl90]

Where's the usual complete OP

I suppose it's in progress.

 

[zeromcd73]

Famitsu first week comparison:

Xillia: 512,544
Destiny 2: 498,142
Rebirth: 372,767
Abyss: 368,316
Xillia 2: 331,533
Zestiria: 316,824
Vesperia (PS3): 227,506
Graces f: 219,921
Graces (Wii): 143,309
Vesperia (360): 101,272

 

[Spiegel]

GTAV is amazing.

 

[Parakeetman]

not bad for ihoujin considering it seemed to have sold out at some locations. though should be restocked by now.

 

[phanphare]

pretty solid number for Kirby, no? it debuted ahead of Captain Toad and that game has had some nice little legs, probably aided by the lower price point.

 

[Alo0oy]

Wasn't it just revealed that Tales sold 400k? Or does that include other Asian markets?

EDIT: PS4 has been doing decently at around 15k weekly for months now, I don't think it's as dead as people are saying.

 

[Road]

So Zestiria sold a little less than 400k?

Confused, where did the 400k Zesty come from? Unless it meant shipped. Either way Zesty sold way less than Xillia (and I can't remember Xillia 2 sales but I think it sold more too).

Wasn't it just revealed that Tales sold 400k? Or does that include other Asian markets?

400k = shipped

number in op = sold to consumers.

 

[Foshy]

16. [3DS] Animal Crossing: New Leaf # <ETC> (Nintendo) {2012.11.08} (¥4.800)- 5.006 / 3.904.259

huh. gonna climb to 4m.

 

[Poetic.Injustice]

Zestria sold worse than expected. PS3 sales have also reached their peak.

 

[E-phonk]

Mediocre/bad kirby opening, as expected I guess.

 

[Sandfox]

Confused, where did the 400k Zesty come from? Unless it meant shipped. Either way Zesty sold way less than Xillia (and I can't remember Xillia 2 sales but I think it sold more too).

Wasn't it just revealed that Tales sold 400k? Or does that include other Asian markets?

I'm pretty sure that's counting more than just the days covered in this week's sales.

400k = shipped

number in op = sold to consumers.

or that lol.

PS4 beating PS Vita launch aligned.

Beast mode begins!

14. [3DS] Final Fantasy Explorers <RPG> (Square Enix) {2014.12.18} (¥6.264)- 5.178 / 249.497

It's having some legs, which wasn't granted given the nice debut.

 

[Parakeetman]

guess furyu fear really did scare off a lot of buyers lol

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Xbox1 hanging on to sales.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Legend of Legacy is finally back in stock on Amazon, but it's still sold out at Yodobashi.

guess furyu fear really did scare off a lot of buyers lol

What do you mean?

 

[Labadal]

Glad to see Legend of Legacy did ok.

Atelier didn't do that well, it seems.

Zestiria must have sold a buttload of digital copies.

 

[Eolz]

Aw Kirby. Hoping it'll have some nice legs.

A bit surprised at Lego too, don't know why but expected higher.

You can't buy Zestiria digitally.

 

[Devilgunman]

Year of PS4.

 

[impact]

Xbox One - 259

wow

 

[kuroneko0509]

Nice number for Legend of Legacy... Sequel when? :^)

No Zestiria on PSN

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

GTAV is amazing.

Indeed, one franchise with true world appeal.

 

[Mpl90]

You can't buy Zestiria digitally.

The reason?

 

[Kysen]

You can't buy Zestiria digitally.

Is there a reason for this?

 

[Sangetsu-II]

Xbox One 259?
Damn dropping like leprechauns on an acid trip.

 

[Alo0oy]

400k = shipped

It probably would have sold 400k or even 500k if it released on PS4 as well, but Bamco gonna Bamco.

 

[Pennywise83]

The game sold most of its initial stock on day one. It's still sold-out in many stores. It's also the best debut for a FuRyu game, and by a nice margin.

And so we enter endgame

I had no idea. I'm used to the Tales games being on PSN here in Europe.

300+ isn't good compared to Xillia or Xillia 2. Maybe they should jump to the PS4.

 

[Foshy]

The reason?

probably just bamco being weird

afaik, PS4 and PSV games require a digital version, PS3 games don't.

 

[zeromcd73]

The reason?

I think they said something about wanting everyone to get the OVA that the game comes with in the retail release, which is not possible digitally so they never made it available.

Not 100% sure, don't quote me on that

 

[kuroneko0509]

The reason?

Is there a reason for this?

I'm not too sure. I heard it's because of the OVA that came along with the physical release.

 

[crinale]

not bad for ihoujin considering it seemed to have sold out at some locations. though should be restocked by now.

Yeah Chikami tweeted he is extremely pleased with initial print sold out.

 

[Usobuko]

Pretty good debut for FuRyu new game.

 

[Caronte]

I hope that Tales of is the last one for PS3. They really need to move the audience to the PS4. Sony should help them too.

 

[maxcriden]

Yesssh. Not too bad for Kirby. Do we have the W1 of recent E-rated Wii U sales around? Thaks!

 

[crinale]

Legend of Legacy is finally back in stock on Amazon, but it's still sold out at Yodobashi.


What do you mean?

Furyu's reputation didn't help to avoid stock problems

 

[kuroneko0509]

Pretty good debut for FuRyu new game.

Yep. I believe it's 80-100% sell-through for it.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Could have been a pretty decent week for PS4 if Zestiria came out on it too.

 

[kitsuneyo]

Someone explain those PS4 system sales to me, when only one PS4 game is in the chart (near the bottom). Wii U has multiple charting games but lower system sales. Don't get it.

the Wii U is the Wii U


that should help

 

[Amin_and_Azizah]

Wii U software completely dwarf ps4 software but for whatever reason the system continues to sell very poorly in comparison to the ps4. Technically, this is a tie in Japan, where one company wins on the hardware front while the other company wins on the software front. At least that's my opinion of course.
