What happened here? This is a big drop from the last two Tales games.

everyone is still playing DQVIII

and as for the enterbrain/media create gap, doesn't one start on the weekend, and the other start on a monday? I seem to recall something like this.

That may be so, but still wouldn't account for the lower than Media-Create stats every week.

The reason for the difference in numbers between Enterbrain and Mediacreate, is that Toys r' us stores (among others) aren't accounted in Enterbrain's totals. Nintendo has of course a very strong presence in these stores hence the huge difference between EB and MC notticeable only at this time of the year.

According to media create, DS has sold 1,286,074 up to and including the 26th of Dec. So if you take the 1.4m figure as accurate that only leaves 113,926 units to sell According to enterbrain's early numbers, it's sold 173,000 in the next week, which if true, can't leave too many DSes on store shelves. Like I said earlier - after selling so much in previous weeks, it can't keep selling at that rate if the units aren't there - demand has finally, and inevitably, overtaken supply.

What about last week, when the DS outsold the PSP 4:1?

XS+ is in denial. If he doesn't see the numbers then they don't exist. :lol :lol :lol

I don't suppose Jungle Beat's on that list is it? No one's translated.

 

[milanbaros]

If I were you I wouldn't base any arguements or 'theories' on enterbrain numbers. IF last week is anything to go buy they are totally off sometimes. The m-create figures seem to be a more accurate, bigger, and tend to favour nintendo big style and thats why I like them.

So whens that new Jumping game for DS come out? I'm sure that'll sell a lot in Japan. I guess people like to jump there.

I think it's no. 22, sold 32,000 (153,000)
Of course that could be very wrong, it never should up on the daily charts, still missing actually, and went on to sell 103,000 last week. Don't think it'll make the media-create top ten, but it won't be far off.

I find the whole thing interesting, actually. Nintendo's press release lists 1.3 million for the US- it looks like Nintendo may have intentionally diverted a few extra units to Japan. Looks like the early on strategy is to drown Sony out of the retail channel to build a sizeable early lead,or force Sony's manufacturing up to bleed their profits. Either way they win.

The guys at Nintendo seem to have their act together thusfar, and seem to be much more shrewd than some of the folks on this forum would lead you to believe.

For heaven's sake... can people please stop being retarded about the DS and PSP numbers. Since supply is so low on PSP hardware no real comparison can be made. It takes hardware to sell software. This is also true in the coming weeks when people who have been waiting to buy PSP finally can do so, whereas the demand for DS will inevitably drop off somewhat. In a couple of weeks we are likely to see PSP numbers rise above DS it's only natural. Nobody wins a stupid argument, you just look stupid arguing.
