Media Create Sales: Week 9, 2013 (Feb 25 - Mar 03)

 

[Redhood]

SS did great!

Credit for GIF: Opus Angelorum

 

[BlackLagoon]

Vita is number 1. All aboard the Inafune Ship!

 

[Angelus Errare]

Vita lives!

 

[Jindujun]

great numbers for vita

 

[DaBoss]

Vita stabilizes/increased! Soul Sacrifice did great!

 

[Galang]

Great Vita numbers!!

 

[RurouniZel]

GO GO MIKU!!

 

[Majmun]

I wonder if SS will have any legs

 

[MurkyZebra2417]

That is pretty good for Soul Sacrifice, right?

 

[Pie and Beans]

Wow, 114k for Soul Sacrifice then? Thats even better than I thought. VITA BEST SELLING HARDWARE. PACK YOUR BAGS. WE PARTY ALL NIGHT, ALL WEEK.

 

[Ridley327]

Is 114k for Soul Sacrifice good? I don't know what the expectations were.

 

[RumblingRosco]

I never thought I'd live to see this day.

 

[Redhood]

Vita is number 1. All aboard the Infafune Ship!

Count me in!
Can someone post that "rising from coffin" sitcom gif for vita!

 

[ZeroAKA]

Vita sales surpassed 3DS sales? Incredible.

 

[Kouriozan]

Vita selling more than half his YTD in 2 weeks is amazing.

 

[darkside31337]

Vita > 3DS!

I wonder when the next time this will happen again (if it ever does).

 

[Palette Swap]

Whoa. Vita on top. Can't say I expected that.

Nice to see SS doing okay.

 

[Axispowers]

that psv bump

still holding on

SS did great!

Dat gif

 

[farnham]

Amazing what a pricedrop and some releases can do. Nintendo should drop the price soon for both platforms

 

[Spiegel]

Professor Layton had one shitty second week. Huge bomba.

And Rising is definitely going to be on many bomba bins soon. There's still +100k units in stores.

 

[Nibel]

Pretty good Vita numbers; wondering if SS is going to have long legs

 

[Krev]

So Wii U is the new Vita and Vita is the new 3DS

 

[Road]

I like the consistency:

Media Create
[PSV] Tales of Innocence R (Bandai Namco) - 54,853
[PSV] Tales of Hearts R (Bandai Namco Games) - 55,258

[PSV] Tales of Innocence R (Bandai Namco) - 47,312
[PSV] Tales of Hearts R (Bandai Namco Games) - 48,178

 

[Scum]

04./05. [3DS] Animal Crossing: New Leaf # <ETC> (Nintendo) {2012.11.08} (¥4.800) - 63.285 / 2.802.940 (-14%)

Bloody hell! That close to 3million sold, already?

 

[saichi]

SS sold above my expectation but the major surprise is VITA outsold 3DS for the week. Didn't 3DS to drop so much from last week.

04./05. [3DS] Animal Crossing: New Leaf # <ETC> (Nintendo) {2012.11.08} (¥4.800) - 63.285 / 2.802.940 (-14%)

Bloody hell! That close to 3million sold, already?

With download card, it was already over 3 million a couple weeks ago.

 

[Lexxism]

3DS is dead.

 

[Father_Brain]

Well, I completely underestimated SS' impact on Vita hardware. Predicted a significant drop this week, but at least I said I wasn't terribly confident in that prediction.

I still don't see any significant lasting impact on Vita's weekly baseline due to the release schedule from here on out, but it might take a bit longer to revert than I had predicted (<15k by end of March, <10K by mid-April).

 

[erpg]

Is 114k for Soul Sacrifice good? I don't know what the expectations were.

GAF expectations were hilarious, to say the least.

 

[metalslimer]

Amazing what a pricedrop and some releases can do. Nintendo should drop the price soon for both platforms

Why the hell would nintendo drop the 3ds price

 

[Nirolak]

So that works out to about 136k for SS if we count double pack as 2 each.

 

[Clairvoyance]

Why the hell would nintendo drop the 3ds price

It's farnham.

Is 114k for Soul Sacrifice good? I don't know what the expectations were.

given they separated out the double pack (which is two copies of the game) wouldn't there arguably be 136,496 copies of soul sacrifice out there if you double the number the double pack sold?

edit

So that works out to about 136k for SS if we count double pack as 2 each.

i guess so

04./05. [3DS] Animal Crossing: New Leaf # <ETC> (Nintendo) {2012.11.08} (¥4.800) - 63.285 / 2.802.940 (-14%)

Bloody hell! That close to 3million sold, already?

It's already over 3.5M and coming close to 4M.

I wonder if SS will have any legs

relative to how few Vita's have sold in Japan? sure. Sony needs a system seller though, which unfortunately doesn't look to be the case. good number, but not at all surprising considering the price drop and SS bundle.

+ DD sales it could cross the 150k

Professor Layton had one shitty second week. Huge bomba.

And Rising is definitely going to be on many bomba bins soon. There's still +100k units in stores.

Pretty much everything had a terrible 2nd week (DW8, SenKag Vs, PSO2, Shining Ark). :/

Decent SS numbers- the next few weeks will tell the story.

Good Vita hardware numbers, but the same caveat applies.

Go Vita!

Never gets old....lol

As posted in the other thread

Decent number for Vita, since we must consider there were bundles too. Great number for Soul Sacrifice, it's been quite a while before seeing another SCEJ game debuting with 100k+.

But now there are big problems for Vita. I mean: the future lineup.

Pretty good Vita numbers; wondering if SS is going to have long legs

Looks difficult. Last week bestseller on Vita:


13./03. [PSV] Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus: Otome Shoujotachi no Shoumei # <ACT> (Marvelous AQL) {2013.02.28} (¥6.980) - 17.138 / 111.461 (-82%)

15./07. [PSV] Phantasy Star Online 2: Special Package <RPG> (Sega) {2013.02.28} (¥5.229) - 10.031 / 71.258 (-84%)

Vita stabilizes/increased! Soul Sacrifice did great!

I wouldn't call that stabilising, for now it just looks like a two week spike. We'll still need a few more weeks of data before we can see the real effects the price drop and new releases.

Now if only the platforms could remain in this order for rest of generation

 

[test_account]

Very good opening for Soul Sacrifice, 92k copies in the regular edition and 44k copies in the double pack (22k sold, but there are two copies in each pack). Then there is probably a few thousand in digital download sales on top of that. So around 140k maybe?

 

[LayLa]

decent numbers for Vita (apart from Tales oof), now comes the hard part - can anything develop legs or will this just be a two week wonder. also who the hell is buying PSO2 at retail?!?!?

 

[liger05]

Amazing what a pricedrop and some releases can do. Nintendo should drop the price soon for both platforms

Yep the 3DS sales are just tanking right now.

I dont know when some people are being serious or not.

 

[Plinko]

Yay Vita and yay Soul Sacrifice!
