[darkside31337]

Wow at those Wii U sales.

[Lexxism]

Looks like luigi is having a pretty good legs. I hope it keeps up.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Vita increase with no games. Nice. Stabilised at 15k.

01./00. [3DS] Friend Collection: New Life # <ETC> (Nintendo) {2013.04.18} (¥4.800) - 404.858 / NEW

All that 'will it bomba' discussion.

[shinra-bansho]

I'd still say it's premature to think Vita will stay at 15K...

Wow at those Wii U sales.

Is this the lowest its been or has it been lower before?

Lowest ever for both trackers.

 

[toastyToast]

Japan officially doesn't give a shit about anything other than the 3DS

 

[SmokyDave]

Vita didn't drop any further!

Wii-U and PSP locked in a tussle.

 

[Revven]

Animal Crossing still going strong, jesus.

Tomodatchi Collection is here to stay.

 

[darkwing]

[Sadist]

Guess Friend Collection is still popular

Wii U is baaad.

 

[chickdigger802]

Vita increase with no games. Nice. Stabilised at 15k.

which isn't that much more if you factor in the price drop.


Really curious why tomodachi life was never brought over here, I know every single line is spoken, but how 'japanese' is that game? Is it one of those games that can't be localized without 'white wash'?

 

[DaBoss]

Nice Vita hold. MH3U Best's quest to 300K GO.

Dat Tomodachi opening.

15k new vita baseline?

That's what I'm thinking.

 

[Dead Prince]

lower sales number

I have to admit the sheer joy at a console "holding" at 15k in the middle of April is a bit disconcerting.

In other news, thankfully for Nintendo they have a killer lineup in the next few months which should really help Wii U gain momentum.

 

[Pie and Beans]

15k possibly looking to be the Vita baseline.

9 Million WiiU's by 2014! Somehow! Oh and 100 billion yen profit as well! Please be excited.

This is the week of 5 billion BEST titles for the Vita, right?

Wow almost hit my predictions of Tomodachi.

Nice job Vita, holding that spot!

Maybe Iwata will localize Tomodachi Collection for the west.

 

[Alrus]

Guess Vita found its baseline, not great but not nearly as abysmal as before.

I wonder what kind of legs Tomodachi will display, it's a very nice start though.

Also what made the 3DS sell so well last year? I don't recall any killer software being released around this time.

Edit: Also Run for the Money makes a comeback, damn it's close to 500K. I remember being surprised when it reached 100k back in the days...

Why did 3DS skyrocket this week? Tomadachi?

 

[Effect]

Looks like luigi is having a pretty good legs. I hope it keeps up.

Same. Well deserved to. Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is an excellent game. Loving it.

 

[DGRE]

3DS tracks below last year. Hmm.

 

[Foshy]

This is the week of 5 billion BEST titles for the Vita, right?

I thought that was next week, might be wrong though.

 

[NotLiquid]

what is releasing for Wii U next week?

if nothing, should be lower

Golden Week is soon so don't count on it. Will probably see a minor increase.

 

[kiri]

what is releasing for Wii U next week?

if nothing, should be lower

Pokemon Rumble U is out today...but I doubt that will shift much.

I would say the next biggest releases are Revelaitons, Injustice and Pikmin 3 over the next month or two.. >_>

 

[BowieZ]

That sexy new Mint x White 3DS (and Tomodachi themed Mint x White 3DS bundle) may have helped!

 

[Taker666]

Why did 3DS skyrocket this week? Tomadachi?

..and a new bundle and a new colour.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

It's great to see MH growing with the install base.

People bought a 3DS to play Tomodachi and also got MH3U. Love it.

 

[May16]

15k new vita baseline?

If it keeps going 3 weeks at a time with no new game releases, yeah probably. It gets a couple new ones tomorrow and then it's back on ice till like May 23rd.

 

[electroplankton]

Tomodachi is a monster.
Luigi is holding pretty well (for some people it would have dropped like a rock because of Tomodachi, yeah right).
Animal Crossing is suffering a bit from Tomodachi it seems, but it's already at 4 mln basically in less than half a year... Huge.

 

[michaelius]

This is the week of 5 billion BEST titles for the Vita, right?

They are released tomorrow.

 

[zroid]

What happened this week last year for the 3DS to push 85k?

edit: Fire Emblem. NICE

 

[fabricated backlash]

It's great to see MH growing with the install base.

People bought a 3DS to play Tomodachi and also got MH3U. Love it.

How much is MH3U on 3DS now in Japan in total? 3g+ best price edition?

 

[Takamura-San]

Muramasa and SS still holding strong.

 

[urfe]

Really curious what Tomodachi's legs will be like.

Looking forward to a Wii U ressurection in the second half of the year.

Yes. You only have to look at the hardware split
