Thanks to Road for assembling the chart.

 

[Stumpokapow]

excellent debut for terminator salvation... a very timely release!

 

[BlazingDarkness]

What is LTD number for Vesperia 360?

 

[Dra-Q]

HD gaming not dead yet in japan?

 

[Interfectum]

Nice PS3 sales.

 

[Blablurn]

good week for ps3. go go go!

 

[GSG Flash]

Vesperia on the PS3 was a really obvious but good decision.

 

[Yoboman]

Hmm, could it level out around 40 - 50k?

 

[Prine]

HD gaming not dead yet in japan?

Japan may be relevant still. Since when did PS3 start beating Wii?

 

[GSG Flash]

What is LTD number for Vesperia 360?

It's probably not much more than the 140k it did in its first two weeks.

 

[SonicX_Zero]

Whoa Vesperia broke 200k....

 

[Shikamaru Ninja]

Does anyone have the ltd sales of Rhythm Heaven Gold (in Japan) ?

 

[Stumpokapow]

Does anyone have the ltd sales of Rhythm Heaven Gold (in Japan) ?

1,791,593 as of August 17th and selling ~3-5,000 per week at that point so probably add another 20k to that.

 

[schuelma]

Hmm, could it level out around 40 - 50k?

That still seems incredibly unlikely to me, but given that I didn't think there was any way it would sell 250K or so in 3 weeks, maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

 

[adamma666]

What is LTD number for Vesperia 360?

Tales of Vesperia 194.714

http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/360.php

 

[Dragona Akehi]

DQIX is definitely going to hit four million. Wow. I never thought we'd see the day.

 

[RpgN]

Tales of Vesperia 194.714

http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/360.php

I thought it sold more than 200k, must be Blue Dragon and SO4 then.

[NDS] SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu, 91,547 / NEW

Is that a good number for this game? What was the total shipment?

 

[Yoboman]

That still seems incredibly unlikely to me, but given that I didn't think there was any way it would sell 250K or so in 3 weeks, maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

Well let's say that we're almost in October... Even with a slow decrease in sales, general Holiday increases will keep the number floating and FFXIII is sure to provide boosts. I think it's doable, but I'm not the best person to ask either cause I'm barely ever in these threads :lol

 

[Blablurn]

| PS3 | 51,055 | 55,344 | 910,663 | 3,533,131 |
| WII | 16,698 | 17,568 | 1,012,145 | 8,491,122

With FFXIII around the corner it seems like the PS3 can beat the Wii in YTD. realistic or not? i mean, wii is still getting wii fit + and new super mario bros wii.

 

[ITA84]

[NDS] SaGa 2: Hihou Densetsu, 91,547 / NEW

From the last thread:

First shipment from Famitsu:

SE - 155,000
AE - 14,000
Total - 169,000

Selling 90,000 to 100,000 would be between 53% and 59%.

 

[jiggles]

Great numbers for Vesperia, but so unlucky to not grab the top spot.

 

[schuelma]

With FFXIII around the corner it seems like the PS3 can beat the Wii in YTD. realistic or not? i mean, wii is still getting wii fit + and new super mario bros wii.

The problem is FF13 is still 3 months away, and Nintendo has the price drop and Wii Fit+/NSMB Wii as you said.

 

[mujun]

What is LTD number for Vesperia 360?

Where are the people yelling install base difference? Uncharted 2 thread?

 

[neojubei]

03./00. [PS3] Tales of Vesperia (Namco Bandai) - 216,593 / NEW

Sweet

 

[izakq]

With FFXIII around the corner it seems like the PS3 can beat the Wii in YTD. realistic or not? i mean, wii is still getting wii fit + and new super mario bros wii.

Is Japan getting the Wii price drop treatment as well?

 

[markatisu]

Where are the people yelling install base difference? Uncharted 2 thread?

Tales fanbase does not care what platform its on, if you saw ToV do like 500k then there might be a install base argument as with other games.

Generally its 120-250 regardless of PSP, Wii, 360, etc

 

[Road]

Since you made a thread based on my post, you might want to correct I few mistakes I made:

Wrong:
17./11. [PSP] Monster Hunter Portable 2 G (BEST) (Capcom)
18./04. [NDS] Love Plus (Konami)
22./00. [PS3] Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (BEST) (Square Enix)

Right:
17./09. [PSP] Monster Hunter Portable 2 G (BEST) (Capcom)
18./07. [NDS] Love Plus (Konami)
22./12. [PS3] Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (BEST) (Square Enix)

Thanks.

 

[pseudocaesar]

Where are the people yelling install base difference? Uncharted 2 thread?

Oh you! So witty.

 

[schuelma]

Is Japan getting the Wii price drop treatment as well?

Yes, next Thursday alongside Wii Fit Plus. It obviously won't make as big an impact as the Slim, but it could help push hardware up a decent amount for a bit.

 

[Jonnyram]

DQIX is definitely going to hit four million. Wow. I never thought we'd see the day.

If you log into the wi-fi shopping today, they have created an awesome pic for "4 million shipped". Wish I'd taken a pic the first time I logged in as it doesn't display again :/

 

[RpgN]

From the last thread:

Thanks, that must be another disappointing showing for SE but at least it did better than Sigma Harmonics and Blood of Bahamut

 

[THE Caffeinated]

PS3 - 11

The sky is falling arghhhhhh!@

 

[Raist]

Hmm, could it level out around 40 - 50k?

I really doubt it. ToV sales probably contributed a lot to not dropping over last week.

 

[Dragona Akehi]

If you log into the wi-fi shopping today, they have created an awesome pic for "4 million shipped". Wish I'd taken a pic the first time I logged in as it doesn't display again :/

I think Wada is going to get his wish and have five million shipped. I think DQIX will finally end up at about four and a half millions in the end.

 

[ivysaur12]

Wow at Vesperia. Great numbers for a great game. And quite the drop off for MH3.

 

[donny2112]

Thanks for doing the thread, cvxfreak and Road.

With Vesperia debuting pretty high and the fairly large amount of PS3 titles in the Top 50, has the PS3 turned a corner? Are third-parties' continued efforts of support of PS3 over Wii finally starting to show strong headway in Japan?

 

[le.phat]

those Vesperia should turn a few heads in Japan. Nice.

 

[DMeisterJ]

Wow @ Vesperia and PS3 sales.

Next week will be 35-40k probably, but this was a really good hold onto it's sales this week.

 

[[Nintex]]

Pokemon, glad to see another two million sellers, can't wait till it hits Europe.

 

[V_Ben]

wha @ uncharted managing to claw its way back onto the charts

 

[Durante]

With FFXIII around the corner it seems like the PS3 can beat the Wii in YTD. realistic or not?

I'd say there was a small chance before the Wii price cut announcement, but now I really don't see it happening.

 

[markatisu]

Wow at Vesperia. Great numbers for a great game. And quite the drop off for MH3.

From ~13 to ~11 (at least according to Dengeki) ?

Its been almost a mirror image of the portable version the last two weeks

 

[Hypereides]

B-b-but guys, I was told that Vesperia wouldn't do go over Eternal Sonata's debut sales for sure

.... that aside, great numbers overall. Should round 400k or so in Japan.

 

[mckmas8808]

Lets get more PS3 software development going now!

 

[cartman414]

DQIX is definitely going to hit four million. Wow. I never thought we'd see the day.

Well, when you consider that it's on one of the fastest selling systems ever...

 

[Mr.NiceGuy]

B-b-but guys, I was told that Vesperia wouldn't do go over Eternal Sonata's debut sales for sure

.... that aside, great numbers overall. Should round 400k or so in Japan.

LOL no.

How can people predict things like this ?

Great Vesperia sales, I think namco finally learned their lesson.

I think PS3 will be at 30-35k next week.

 

[djtiesto]

Japan may be relevant still. Since when did PS3 start beating Wii?

Yes, because to be relevant it means you need to be fully devoted to the 2 poorest-selling consoles worldwide

Go Ys 7, go DQ9, go SaGa 2!

 

[mujun]

Oh you! So witty.

Which PC game thread did you make it out of into here?

I wonder how many PCs were sold in Japan this week..

 

[mujun]

wha @ uncharted managing to claw its way back onto the charts

You don't see the correlation between a price drop, new hardware and a bunch of best/platinum titles making reappearances?

 

[Lenardo]

ps3 started beating the wii when the price drop for the ps3 hit.
