Don't forget to say hi to Smash, visiting from earlier this year. Speaking of which, Wii having 15 in the top 50 says quite a bit, doesn't it? Seeing all the Nintendo games rise up shows that new people are plunging in for Wii hardware purchases for the first time, which is reflected by the data.

Obvious, I know, but interesting to see which games new hardware owners are purchasing.

I thought Smash was consistently in the Top 50.

And it's over 100 now. Those are LTD numbers, not launch numbers.

Josh's data has it at 96k. He just has the first two weeks. I assumed he was going off MC data which might have had it at 100k after two weeks.

Which further updates have there been? If it's going on "well, it's obviously sold 4k since then", I'd be inclined to agree but that's one of the drawbacks of automated queries for this stuff--you can't inject the magic human element to it :(

Let's Tap is 4,600yen. NOT 9000. Don't know what crazy ass store you guys shop at.

With two cardboard boxes.

So much for Let's Tap, it feels like it doomed before we even get first day numbers. Time for ports!

I wouldn't say it's doomed yet. Games have outright bombed in Japan only to be saved in the States before (No More Heroes, Endless Ocean, Some Other Third Thing)

Let's Tap is 5040 yen RRP. What the hell are people talking about 8900 yen for? Even Sega isn't that insane.

Edit: Oh wow, great minds think alike.
Fools seldom differ.

No word on Dissidia? No lines or frenzy? Seems really quiet for such a big title... Or is it just the economy???

That's good. As I said I havn't seen an ad for it yet so I was shocked when another poster said it was 8900yen.

4600, that is a price I can live with. I think I'll pick this up tomorrow.

The store I bought mine from had two versions, one for around 5900 with no cardboard boxes and the other 8900 with 2. I'm guessing the Playasia version is boxless? However, I also notice that the Playasia one doesn't have the usual free shipping, so maybe the boxes are included? Who knows?!
Click to expand...

Where the hell do you buy your games? The list price for the game version of Let's Tap is 5000, and even if it was 5900, unless you live way out in the sticks then there's absolutely no excuse to pay full list price for a game here. Any major electronic or game store will have the prices be around 4500. If you do live way out there and have no choices, buy your games from Amazon, they're much cheaper! Man, they must be laughing to the bank getting suckers like you paying over the list price!

It is officially out in Japan on Christmas day. I think it can at least match with the number of PSP-P.

Holy crap @ Dissidia - 500k week is extremely likely and with legs it might just hit that 1 million mark. Nice for a game that seems awesome.

lol@ CG ToH. All in all, I expected a bit more for ToH (seems like 150k week is likely at least which is better than previous DS Tales), but it's not a BAD start. Fairly good Gundam Musou sales for PS3.

Hmmm,that means Dissidia would do about 400 - 440k in the first week. If SE is lucky, Dissidia LTD can be over a million since they throw in ad hoc/infrastructure multiplayer.

Sweet first day sales for the most part =)

Very happy for Dissidia, to pull off the same first day number as Crisis Core is awesome. Fable II is impressive too!
Best first day Tales sales on the DS. I care, but unfortunately, its hard to give much of a damn here when Namco Bandai wont bother localizing.

One major disappointment though, Suikoden. =(

I think there's a good chance that at least 10k of the 14k of CG ToH sold are double-dips. What do you guys think?
Click to expand...

I'm trying to envision a scenario whereby a human being walks in and buys only the CG version and it's not working. I'm not sure if it'd be 10k in specific, but I'm on board with this hypothesis.

I guess, really, the game could be seen as 6600yen or 13200yen for the deluxe edition... and roughly 10% of fans have decided to get the deluxe edition :D

That's kinda what I meant. But I don't think that would account for the entire % of CG ToH sales. Why? Because I can totally envision various scenarios where the person buying it simply took the wrong game from the shelf. Not everyone buys their own games, and some may be year end gifts. I can totally see parents buying the wrong version of ToH for their kid, and it's going to be a really, really sad Christmas.
Yes, I know they don't celebrate Christmas in Japan, but it would still be funny!

Crisis Core also had the limited first run of the PSP Slim & Lite, so it may have been able to go higher that first week if more of the PSP-2000s were available. Dissidia has going for it that it seems to be more of a fighter than an RPG, so maybe it'll have better legs than RPGs usually do. If it can cross 500K for the first week, 1 million may be doable. :)

Interesting first day sales this time :)

FF Dissidia is doing just as expected, similar to FFVIICC. Though I don't see it reaching the million figure that easily unless it gets huge legs. Psp games aren't known for that, but who knows? This fighter might generate more buzz than usual and sell more than 600k+

ToH is doing better than the past ds games but where are the shipment figures? I wonder what Namco expected themselves. And lol at the CGI version. I guess I'll get that knowing it will drop in price quickly.

Suikoden DS, isn't doing great but is holding quite well and at least didn't bomb like Avalon Code and WoN.

Fable II, I didn't expect it to sell this much. It seems western games are selling more than usual lately.
