It's not possible. Retailers are not going to reorder ASH or IAWW. What's out there should sell, but that's about it.Innotech said:
FF:CC sadly won't top 1m unless it does some sort of re-release, either.

where is the Rise Of Lair, it suppose to be released?

How do you figure? FF is usually bigger in Japan than the US*, and Liberty City Stories presents a similarly-high figure to beat in the US as MHP2 does in Japan.Hcoregamer00 said:

Based on Wii sports / play sales, looks like the Wii may have hardware sales in the low 20ks. It's not the seller it was a few months ago.

Separate games...this is the 2nd MLB game they've done, as opposed to the 14 J-league games they've released.speculawyer said:

Console sales should be interesting this week. I'll guess that DS sales will be just barely higher than PSP sales this week.

And 90k for PSP?

Welcome back Cheese!
Anything peopｌe want me to count this week? Not sure if it's even worth it.
Quick summary:
PSP slim: Neither sold out nor supply constrained
Wii: lots
DS: Lots and lots
PS3: Less than Wii but more than enough
Xbox 360: Small number available but more than meets demand

So wait, does that logic apply in PS3 vs 360 game sales in the US or is it just one of those "when it is beneficial" things?

It can really be used to rationalize any game that's underperformed on any console thus far this generation (by simply comparing to the PS2 tie ratio), so I'd classify "look at the userbase size" as the latter.

All hail the Cheese! *bow*
Pretty much in line with the Famitsu trends. Strikers holding in there but I'm still disappointed by it's performance. CC on the way down and won't hit a million, it should have beaten MH Freedom's numbers though (Moor-Angol has it at 668.964 - I know it's Famitsu but still) and is now the No. 2 best selling title on PSP in Japan. Ash is disappointing.

I think that's pretty much Mistwalker's chance to score a hit.kassatsu said:
Yep, Wii has online, not huge in Japan though. PS2 has BC with the older titles for unlockable stuff, guess that's quite big for the fanbase.Kintaro said:
:lol Whoever thought that Halo 3 would have legs need to get a reality check. By now we all know that there's a small niche market for western games on 360 and that these fans are hardcore. Meaning that they rush to the store day 1 to get their fix, making for absolutely frontloaded sales. Has nothing to do with a flash fad. Halo 3 didn't even achieve fad status.speculawyer said:

Realistically, no.AdmiralViscen said:
Hardcore gaming is continuing to take a beating in Japan. You'd have to be extremely optimistic to think another game in a saturated genre with no discernable differences to people other than the forum posting hardcore would sell big numbers.
It's a shame because it looks reasonable, but it was always going to be niche. Still, I don't think a 50K first week is bad, it just looks worse than it is because retailers and Nintendo overestimated the title.
I think PS3 should outsell Wii in a couple of weeks when the price drops hit. Wii is soft at the moment and is in need of good, innovative games from Nintendo. There's nothing of a system selling nature until SMG at the beginning of November.
It's going to be fun whatever happens.

...Thats quite a difference between Fami and MC (DBZ PS2-wise). Anyway I always use Famitsu on the long run since they give Top30. Btw, not to mention MGS PO+. Well, I will...
Famitsu
8.MPO+　23000（153000）
...MPO+DX　(didn't get numbers this week)（24000 as of last week）
MC
12. [PSP] Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops+ (Konami) (<20k this week) (119,000 as of last week)
So Fami has it at 177k without counting DX sales this week while MC has it at 135-139k.
Famitsu-wise, MGS PO has sold around 580k (between original release, 20th anniversary release, plus release, plus deluxe release).
PD: Nothing new on the chart, MLB2 is quite a bomba, did you guys know that MLB1 released last year on GC did TWICE what MLB2 did in Wii? Along more than 50% decline in the PS2 version...it better sell in US if you want Konami to do another one.

Huh? *Scratches head* It debuted in the Top 10. Although it sold less in it's opening week than for 360.reilo said:

Anyone know how ASH was marketed in Japan? Pushed hard at all? We've seen quite a lot of scans throughout the last half year...
Was there really just that little interest, regardless of its exposure?

Yeah, the DS will either this or next week again be on top.
Anyway, nice to see Strikers haning in there. It only dropped two places compared to last week. Should be interesting to see if the DS is able to beat the PSP. Yeah, I know Famitsu had the PSP at 8k higher than the DS, but Famitsu has also tracked the PSP higher than m-create for last couple of weeks.
