Well PS3 has been affected by One Piece boost during recent weeks. Now it's stabilizing back to its normal levels.
Stabilized!
I'm not going to lie, that is pretty funny.
I'm glad to see HM still hanging on. Nice legs.

Go with the Asian version. Much cheaper.

I don't think we'll see sub 10k until later April at this rate, sales seem pretty stable
Yes and no.
When you factor in the fact that it took the 3DS 4-6 weeks to get last years YTD figures it is quite startling.....

Good for Kid Icarus. Did better than I expected.
Pokemon + Nobunaga does a decent job of holding on to it's sales.
Monster Hunter 3G, Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land and even Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games go up in units sold. Even Harvest Moon and Hatsune Miku seems to be doing well. 3DS software is doing quite a good job.
The biggest sales disappointment here would be Black Panther 2: Yakuza Ashura. Sold a lot less compared to the previous game in the series.
Big 3DS hardware increase. Those bundles gave it quite a boost.
Vita still above 10000 ,but the Wii is coming closer in sales.

fixed. and yes. i mean no
Was just checking last years mc threads and this made me laugh:
Oh boy after reading through that thread, I just realised he was wrong in basically every post. Embarrassing.
John Dunbar
correct about everything
considering how close to 10K it has been the last few weeks, it could easily dip below it and still be "stable".
It'll be pretty hilarious if it never drops below 10k but keeps trolling us for weeks until better software comes out.

Haven't really kept up on how Kid Icarus plays. Does it have a substantial single player? Does it offer a decent multiplayer as well? Curious as to how that might affect trade ins.
yes and yes

PS2: I thought I told you that we won't stop I thought I told you that we won't stop I thought I told you that we won't stop I thought I told you that we won't stop I thought I told you that we won't stop I thought I told you that we won't stop
Kid Icarus was released March 23 so this is just 2 days of sales.
The game is sold out in a lot of places in Japan and even in amazon.co.jp. They are expecting a new shipment in the coming days (1st April)
i personally don't have the game, but reading the OT i can pretty much tell you that GAF consensus is that they packed so much single player content that they could have splitted it among 3 games...
ok, so we can expect a huge drop and then maybe a new rise from the ashes...
Spring break happened. Graduation gifts and such aplenty is what's likely causing the boost.
Glad to see KI selling relatively well. It's definitely a game that can benefit from word of mouth, and if kids returning from break decide to make it a staple game alongside Mario Kart and MH, 500K+ LTD won't be out of the question.
You go to an MC and don't even read the first post ? I don't buy it.

Lol, that would be hilarious indeed, but I can't see it holding on. We'll see, though.
Out for two days.
I wonder if this:
is feeding the 3DS base now too. No DS's are being moved seemingly. Ill bet the BC of the 3DS is eating away at what would have been sales of the DSi.
Pokemon will clarify this for sure when it launches, but I suspect 3DS will just eat the benefits of high profile DS releases.

Like every other new game ever.
Not a bad thing, right? At least long term. I'm sure they'd make more money short term on DS purchases.
Stabilized!
Well played good sir.
Yep. So 100k + in 2 days isn't that slow.
A 50% drop would put it at 195-ish, and then another 50% at 230ish...
I hope it can break 300k eventually

It'll definitely pass 300k, we just have to see how fast it does it.
Most perennial Nintendo titles easily dwarf their initial weekly sales.
Also can't forget that it was supply constrained till Sunday when apparently add'l shipments came in (see retailer blogs, stock status in places like Yodobashi that came back on Sunday). Couldn't preorder from PlayAsia because of this, and now I'm STILL waiting for the JP version from another place that's twice as slow at the same price! I could play the US ver, but there's so many good words about

Better than the toxic cycle PSP/PSV finds itself in. You don't want your predecessor to be nearly double-scoring you every week.
