Media Create Sales: Week 11, 2013 (Mar 11 - Mar 17)
 
Pretty disappointing sales for a holiday.

I expect Wii U to go up by next week (but not by much), Vita and 3DS to go down, and the rest stay the same.

Wow, huge wall of PS3/PSV/PSP games. Nice performance for Luigi and PSV (although I have to say with that amount of new games and the recent price drop, it would have been a bad sign if PSV dropped), Wii U's small bump seems weird without any games though.

Urgh Disgaea's low performance is disappointing.

Vita surprise of the week. Holiday rise I suppose. Wii U almost 2k stronger is pretty surprising too. Wonder how G&W will have an effect on it next week.

Amazing Vita hold. Very nice Luigi sales.

All I can come up with I guess, not much happenned this week. I thought it would turn out to be a more exciting week!!

Now what's left is to see how Wii U will fare with some releases.

So can people stop saying 'we need to wait until next week to see how Vita does' now, then?

Sure, when it shows signs of stabilizing around these figures. Nobody's saying Wii U is floating back up, either.
 
I'm guessing Luigi's shipment reports were wrong, but very nice figures nonetheless.

Vita's surprising me a bit, I must admit. I realise that this is the last big software for a while, but I thought it would have dropped more by now. Encouraging news.
So can people stop saying 'we need to wait until next week to see how Vita does' now, then?
Hahaha, no. It was always unlikely for Vita to return to its old sales during the release glut over the past month. These sales are encouraging, yes, but from now is the real test.

Very good Vita numbers and OP2(Vita).

I expected a lot more from Luigi's Mansion.

Also nice 2nd week for KH1.5.It will reach 200k eventually.

Good to see the Vita holding onto respectable sales numbers. I'm guessing it will stabilize to around 20k in a few weeks time -- which is not bad considering the situation before.

I wonder if we'll see SS in the top 20 next week.

Impressive Vita hold. ~20K difference between LM2 for MC and Famitsu seems to indicate ~20K download cards were sold.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Not just a Vita hold, but a Vita rise! The fire rises!

Totally forgot that KH was released.

I wonder if FFX will do similar numbers...

Aka not that impressive.

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
I don't check Japanese sales number but I thought that Japan was the one territory where the WiiU was actually doing really well.

Not according to those weekly numbers.

Nah, it's doing horrible. Just a bit less horrible than other regions.

Good to see Vita still holding up. And good to see so many Vita games charting.

Wii U small bump in anticipation for G&W? Why else would this happen?

Nice numbers for LM2.

Not according to those weekly numbers.

The initial launch period was good but it was down there with the Vita before Vita got a price cut, so yeah it's been pretty bad numbers.

Games out next week for the Wii U over there though so we might see a rise.

Vita hold is pretty amazing this week. How much longer can it keep this up? OPM2 sold below my expectations substantially, but it should be able to clear the 500k shipment. The Vita/PS3 ratio is pretty healthy though. Seems worthwhile enough to release stuff in this format at least, for easy money. LM2 seems to be doing quite well. Solid sellthrough, and should have pretty good legs as long as the game isn't shit.

Not according to those weekly numbers.

Dragon Quest X in 3 days will certain help, but considering that was already released for the Wii, I don't see Wii U doing THAT much better next week. Maybe 20,000+, but not a significant jump.

Who would have thought Luigi would top this chart against One Piece like two months ago ? Great opening, it should easily pass 500k lifetime. No significant 3DS HW bump though.

Vita still maintaining with many new releases and even a small Wii U bump despite no release. Shows some small promise for next week.

Vita saved by the recent Sony decisions (price drop and constant release of software) despite someone will still deny it. Good Luigi debut compared to the first one, not-so-hot debut for One Piece considering the first episode (as for Hokuto no Ken), while the Wii U rises a little bit (LOL)

Vita hold is pretty amazing this week. How much longer can it keep this up? OPM2 sold below my expectations substantially, but it should be able to clear the 500k shipment. The Vita/PS3 ratio is pretty healthy though. Seems worthwhile enough to release stuff in this format at least, for easy money. LM2 seems to be doing quite well. Solid sellthrough, and should have pretty good legs as long as the game isn't shit.

Doesn't have anything that sells decently until Valhalla Knights 3 on May 23. I don't expect it to end well.
