Media Create Sales: Week 10, 2013 (Mar 04 - Mar 10)

Seems GoW:A didn't do so hot in Japan. Obviously that's not a big market for the game, but it seems to fit the worldwide picture.

PSP surges back to the top spot on Media Create charts, beating the new major releases on PS3 and 3DS. So much for the platform being dead in Japan!
 
SAO refusing to let us forget that it exists. I was hoping that it being sold out locally was just a middle-of-nowhere thing, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. Word of mouth seems to be pretty not so great though, so I'm expecting a large drop off next week.

The SRW numbers aren't surprising either. Visually, it doesn't look much better than the DS games, and the series they picked aren't particularly great either.

Is this the highest debut for one of these HD collections in Japan?

What?! That's crazy.

At this point, hoping for a 'perfect storm' of Mother 2, Pokemon U, Game & Wario, and Google Street U to excite sales seems done right nuts.
 
not to bad vita sales. SS could have done better but its not as bad as it could be. Also dont know digital sales which really sucks.

Wonder if the MC results will show double packs again in the chart.

basically..... about what I expected with vita being a bit higher and SS being a bit lower.

The hardware boost will come from the DQX hardware bundles, not from anything else, and it will be over very quick.

Who will cross 2 mil first?? If NSMB2 stays steady it will, but if MK increases like it did this week. It could be really close.

NSMBU about to cross 500k and has a 60 or 70% attach rate. Pretty good.

good hold for Vita, if it will be able to stabilyze at 25k or something like that.
I was expecting more from KH 1.5: I think that the underwhelming performance of KH3D were not due only to the 3ds.

Legend, can't wait for Golden Week.
 

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.
I wonder how FFX|X-2 HD Remaster will do in Japan. Not to mention that FFX is (or was) the top 1 most favorite game in Famitsu Japan.

Nintendo really needs to get some games out the door to improve sales.

They have been sitting on Wii Fit U, Pikmin 3, and Wonderful 101 for a while with not even a hint of a release coming soon for any of them.

I'm sorry, I needed an excuse to post that.

What the context for Super Robot Wars sales? Are these good, just OK, bad? I have no idea.

More or less on par. Compared to the DS releases it's the lowest opening yet, but they've been declining with each release anyway. It should end up selling close to the previous DS release which did like 160k or so iirc. The bigger console versions of SRW sell much, much more.

Better than I expected for PS Vita this week... good news.

And next week, with Pirate Warriors 2 on the streets, numbers should be better... 40k at least.

Are these good sales for Kingdom Hearts HD? They seem alright to me but I don't know.

I also wonder if the Wii U has any big titles releasing soon over there that can move units, because those sales are just atrocious. Soon enough it is going to be competing with it's predecessor for the 5th spot on this chart.
 
How much longer will Soul Sacrifice be able to sell? I'm assuming that if it's still selling at the current rate next week it'll be a long selling title.

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.

You guys do remember that is also coming out on the PS3 right?
 
36k is pretty good for a week with no major new release exclusive to vita.

I think if sony can stabilize the release calendar a bit, and get up to a good exclusive one every two weeks, they could easily sustain 50k+ a week.

Hopefully there is some major wheeling and dealing going on at sony HQ to try to get more titles, more regularly.
