Japan Daily 9.15

Hoooooooooooooooooooooly Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhit

I would have fully expected WE9 to be at LEAST in the top 3.

Well, there goes that theory of a comeback in Japan. I think it'll be pretty well cemented in 2nd place now. I think this was Sony's last chance to really get the ball rolling and stop Nintendo while they're ahead there.

And so, Tales of Legendia is off.

Namco should cancel Tales of the Abyss, killing my favourite franchise doesnt satisfy me.


No, they shouldn't... I have high hopes for TotA :) ... any TGS impressions? :D

Your predictions for Gyakuten Saiban seem a bit low. It is directly behind WE9, it could perhaps even have outsold WE9 with the two SKU's combined.

Being one place behind doesn't gurantee a small difference. In fact it is also too early to say WE bombed too. We know the Brain Training games will likely be around 20-30K. The last rerelease of Mario Bros did 60K to give us some reference(GBA was around 55K whereas GBM is likely over 100K). However at the top we have no idea. It is very conceivable that SRTJ, Tamagotchi and WE all did well over 100K and Gyakuten Saiban did only at 20K. Although if I'm honest I think I may have lowballed both GS and WE. But it remains to be seen. I would say the GS 60K combined and WE at 90 is very real possibility.

I think you mean 3rd behing the GBA and DS. ;)
 
Still too early to make predictions on the week as a whole, but Nintendo usually dominates weekends.

WE PSP + FFVII:AC UMD + White PSP < GBmicro + SMB + Mario Tennis + Dr Mario / Panel de Pon + SRTA

Well, it is just ONE day of sales though. Hardware should seek an increase, I would think.

I hope that Lawyer game is good, because I REALLY want to buy it.

My prediction is as follows:

GBM: 55k
DS: 40k
PS2: 35k
PSP: 33k
GBASP: 15k
GC: 2.2k
XBX: 230

This chart will be the first chart the GBM is on -- so it's probably sold anywhere from 3-4x your prediction.
 
Considering that Gyakuten Saiban DS is a director's cut, it's sales are even more amazing.

Makes you wonder how an original DS edition would perform (same goes for Rockman EXE).
 
That chart is all handheld.

The console wars are over!

PS2/GC/Xbox am cry.

(incidently, ill wait for the week charts before making any PSP/DS statements)
