The game's hype is absolutely ridiculous (bigger than it has ever been ) I assumed it would do more than that. It's going to be weird if it sells more I'm America.

Naruto sales in the West are like 10 times bigger than in Japan.

Previous titles have crossed the million mark worldwide, in Japan they barely sold over 100.000 units.

Maybe Golden Week? I don't know but it can sell about 18-20k each week, and then receive a little boost up to 35k in the last week of the month.

I guess I also see TC having a slower start and longer legs and maybe being a little hurt by AC. Has Nintendo done any advertising for the game? It's hard to get a feel what the feeling towards the idea of a sequel is.
 
Bold.
Anyway, I will not reply anymore in this topic because it seems you have been quite aggressive in your answers ("Stop playing stupid.", "Can you see how this ruins your integrity.", etc.). So if you wanna reply here or in private, I will reply in private and that's all ;)

You would get angry if you were having a discussion with some one who said a game was a flop because the company expected it to sell x amount, then say that he made those numbers up, then claim thats its still a flop regardless of the companies expectations (even though he used it previously to measure the success of the title) and then finally conclude that its a flop either way in his opinion.

Theres no need to continue this discussion because it seems like a waste of time.

I'm guessing a lot of the early adopters of Animal Crossing are ready to move on with a new life game.

I also think they're quite different games. Anyway, it seems Nintendo is advertising Tomodachi Collection, it has also a bundle. It's a follow-up of a 3.5 million unit game, surely it has some followers.

nintendo is already heavily pushing Tomodachi Collection

i think most of predictions that have been made are a little low, considering it will be the Nintendo title for GW and prediction is about 2 weeks

SEGA's games such as as PO, Hatsune Miku, VC and Shining have done really well on Playstation platforms even Vita. Sega like Falcom know where their base audience is at and their audience know that too. Theres no need for them to go and risk developing on the 3DS until they are dissatisfied with current sales.
Sega's sold significantly more 3DS software worldwide than Vita software. In fact Sonic Generations and Monkey Ball 3D together have outsold all their Vita software combined.

At this point 3DS is unquestionably less of a "risk" than Vita. Even for Sega.
 
Ah thanks for the info

Why does Sega continue to push vita so hard?

I don't think they're really pushing it that hard.

Miku was primarily a psp franchise and probably started development a while before there was any indication of Vitas poor performance.

PSO they targeted PC and I think smartly avoided a version for PS3 as continuing to support a system being likely to fading in the next couple of year isn't likely to be smart long term. A cut down version for handheld offers something a bit more different (and probably cheaper to make) than just another full version.

Monkey Ball been on mobiles and 3ds so I don't think this is a big surprise to hit another handheld.

Port of Virtua tennis. Sports games tend to hit tons of platforms anyway an supposedly porting between PS3 and Vita is relatively easy.


They announced a new soccer game, that will also have a PS3 version.

None of that really seems like a big push to me.
 
I still vote that Phantasy Star Portable 3/Victory on 3DS would do great numbers, not HUGE, but still very pleasant numbers.

Especially of course, since MH is on the platform and yada yada yada.

Sega should also consider a mainline Miku, especially since the spin-off did well.

And why haven't we seen another Super Monkey Ball on 3DS? Hell make a 3DS version of Banana Blitz, THAT would be kickass, just use the same or even better graphics than SMB 3D, and of course the same soundtrack from Banana Blitz, and you're golden, I LOVED that game! :D They can re-adjust the puzzles to remove jumping, or even just port the whole thing intact, but I'd also welcome a brand-new game.

But PLEASE get Noisy Croak back for the music, that was my fav thing about Banana Blitz. :(

I also heard a rumor about how the owner of Miku IP pushed Sega to bring the new entry on PS3 also.

I've actually attended the hearing of some kid who got caught with a small amount of weed. His mother got up and said he was a good boy who fell in with a bad crowd. Surreal as I also lived in Amsterdam...

Weed is veeeerrry illegal.

Eh, just curious. Small drugs like weed are getting less and less attention by authorities around my way, nowadays. Hell, I think they just de-criminalized the possession of it or something.
