Media Create Sales: Week 52, 2011 (Dec 26 - Jan 01)
 
Well at least the Vita is holding steady (although almost everything else got a bump).

3DS is absolutely on fire and I'm extremely impressed with MK7 and SM3DL sales. Is it common for games to pick up this much during the first week of the year?

People often get some money on New Years so it's perfectly normal.

Vita would take 5 weeks at its current pace to match what the 3DS did in one week. Nope, not good at all Sony. At all.
 
What were Capcom's expectations for MH3G up to March? It was 1.2 million, right? That should be obtainable in about 2 weeks if sales don't drop.

Glad to see the 3DS killing it still. It's very much a flawed system, but just like the DS I've been loving it despite the hardware's shortcomings.

dat 3DS. Nintendo definitely struck lightning yet again, despite the rocky start.

For now, yes. The question is whether they still have any leverage with the vast, more mainstream DS audience - and if not, what do they need in order to make that happen. I doubt the two Mario titles are quite enough.
 

Mpl90

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Nintendogs being SO back in top 20 NOW is...wow, indeed.

In the meanwhile, Super Mario 3D Land is starting a race to reach Super Mario 64. Stunning.

16/20 is Nintendo.

...Aaaaaand it happened.


[WII] Monster Hunter 3 (Capcom) - 582.548 / 1.077.273 / 54,08% 01/08/09

Updated to last week of 2010 (17 months)


03./02. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G # <ACT> (Capcom) {2011.12.10} (¥5.800) - 98.355 / 1.083.853 (-2%)

...Five weeks.

I think everything they've showed thus far says yes. Tomodachi Collection 2 and Girl's Mode will probably be decent catalysts for sustaining current momentum with the expanded audience.

Vita still above 40k is surprising.

Bigger sales week than last, so if it had dropped that would have been a very bad sign.

PSP and Vita are now neck and neck with their launch-aligned sales.

After four weeks on sale:
PSP - 482,252
Vita - 482.901

Will begin to steadily fall behind the PSP, as of next week, cause PSP's fifth week sales were 62,052. In fact it had several successive weeks of around 60k. And it took around until late March for it to start consistently selling below 40k a week.

As well as Love Plus, Kingdom Hearts, and Resident Evil when they come out.
 
Everything had big gains from last week except for the dead PS2, dead 360 and the Vita.
Sales change from last week
Vita +267 units (00.6%)
360 +285 units (11.6%)

edit-added in percent.
 
Excellent results for 3DS... again. Nice to see MonHun cross the million mark.

Interesting to see how much higher PSP is year-on-year, with the software only touching the bottom reaches of the chart.
 
Inazuma has overtaken the last known number for Layton 5 and is now the best selling Level 5 game since IE3 Ogre. (I'm mixing trackers here, though) That's something, I guess.
The next milestone would be selling through the first shipment. After that it would have to outsell Ogre which is at 430,853, but I'm getting ahead of myself here. :p
 

Alexios

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Glad MonHun only had such a minor % drop, hope that lasts a while longer.

Btw Dec 26 - Jan 1 hasn't been added to the 2011 list.

I laughed so much at the initial 400k shipment, was so sure it will bomb hard and have no leg...

Also, Takao's joke of 500k Just Dance has taken a real form, lol

Probably due to Jan 2nd falling in week 1 this year whereas it was in week 52 last time

01./01. [3DS] Mario Kart 7 <RCE> (Nintendo) {2011.12.01} (¥4.800) - 157.188 / 1.317.357 (+44%)

02./04. [3DS] Super Mario 3D Land <ACT> (Nintendo) {2011.11.03} (¥4.800) - 119.093 / 1.199.285 (+74%)

03./02. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G # <ACT> (Capcom) {2011.12.10} (¥5.800) - 98.355 / 1.083.853 (-2%)

The big 3 are unstoppable. Call me crazy. But i think they are actually fueling each other. "You need to buy these 3 games right now if you own a 3DS".


04./06. [3DS] Inazuma Eleven Go: Shine / Dark <RPG> (Level 5) {2011.12.15} (¥5.800) - 56.134 / 325.358 (+17%)

Not bad. General third party sales doing ok for 3DS.


08./09. [WII] Wii Party <ETC> (Nintendo) {2010.07.08} (¥4.800) - 33.174 / 2.256.803 (+45%)
09./08. [WII] Kirby's Return to Dream Land <ACT> (Nintendo) {2011.10.27} (¥5.800) - 33.040 / 570.168 (+37%)
13./23. [3DS] Nintendogs + Cats: French Bulldog / Shiba / Toy Poodle & New Friends <ETC> (Nintendo) {2011.02.26} (¥4.800) - 24.514 / 467.914

Wii Party sales destroyed Mario Party! Kirby not bad, and Nintendogs salvaging its reputation a bit.


19./21. [WII] Rhythm Heaven: Fever <ACT> (Nintendo) {2011.07.21} (¥5.800) - 15.903 / 670.305

Sakamoto rises to heaven! Great numbers.

Erm, what? Did you just decide to forget about Ninokuni?
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
The YTD are already ridiculous.

What are this month releases shedules for 3DS/PSV? I'm only aware of RE:R.

Tales of Innocence R for Vita.

Iwata has said they have new "expanded audience" games planned for this year.
 
After reaching the million mark so quickly, I wonder where MH3G could end up; Capcom's expectations (1 million and 200k) should be a safe bet now, maybe 1 million and 500k? That would great and a decent start for the series on a new console.

In fact, the PS Vita sales would be worse than PSP in same period if 40k weekly sales trend goes on.

With sales this strong, 1.5m would be an easy milestone to reach before the end of the quarter. Perhaps even sooner.

Impressive bump for Super Mario 3D Land. It will pass SM64DS next week and then it won't be long before it overtakes SM64. Well deserved

How so? Ninokuni was released one week before Ogre.

Oh, so it was. It took Ninokuni so long to sell over 500k I kinda got confused.

I think the real question is how long it will take Level 5 to have another hit that's close to Layton 1-3 and Inazuma 2-3 again. Do you think they'll manage by 2013?
