PS4 sales seem steady!
As Pokemon and Mario Maker ones.
Good ssales for Momotato too and Dangarompa on Vita.
07./16. [3DS] Yo-Kai Watch 3: Sukiyaki <RPG> (Level 5) {2016.12.15} (¥4.800) - 19.080 / 598.079 <80-100%> (+86%)
11./07. [3DS] Yo-Kai Watch 3: Sushi / Tempura # <RPG> (Level 5) {2016.07.16} (¥4.800) - 7.901 / 1.443.528 <80-100%> (-64%)
So, YW3 with its 3 versions sold more than 2 millions copies, retail only, in Japan. A clear decrease, but still VERY relevant.

Depends whether they... let it go.
if it makes you feel a little less nervous, its currently at #1 on Amazon.jp
Not an indicator of overall sales, but it seems to be selling somewhere
I always thought this series was bigger than 4 million. Is there a Chance it won't sell that? Seems like it should be able to easy.

best of your puns lol
PS3 VS PS4
Pokemon XY VS Pokemon SunMoon (in two weeks the dream is over)
Super Mario Maker Wii U VS 3DS (race to million)
I still struggle to see why many people still think that PS4 will start to lose againt PS3 soon :\
Maaan, Mario Maker is HOT on 3ds (especially considering how it performed well also on Wii u!)
What gave you that impression?
That was new sales back in PS2 days, but of course the franchise is way bigger due to used sales, re-releases, other games ect.I think the potential is there to sell pretty well for KH3, but SE has to not cock up letting as many people know as they can when its finally time
PS4 has a stellar year of content to keep momentum and excitement in the platform going globally. And unlike back in the PS3 days around the same time period, western games are more popular in Japan than ever before.
I expect Horizon to do over 100k easily
It's nice to be hopeful I guess.
Do you think they will keep remixing simple and clean long after utada is dead? Maybe for kingdom hearts 4 in 2067.What gave you that impression?

Praying!
16./11. [WIU] Minecraft: Wii U Edition <ADV> (Microsoft Game Studios) {2016.06.23} (¥3.600) - 4.940 / 275.984 (-63%)
?
If she comes back for KH3, i think they will just use that song forever and re-orchestrate it and remix it and then interchange it with Hikari and Passion ad nauseum
This is my concern as well. I wonder if it wouldn't have been better to release switch around Splatoon and Zelda in JP. I guess fans in each region knowing the game they want wouldn't have been thrilled about that, though (I guess with Splatoon though not much knowledge of Japanese would be needed for Western fans). I'm very curious how Zelda will sell.
I wonder if GTAV's success in the West finally got Nintendo to take more notice of its success. I'd be very curious (and I imagine many Western publishers would be) to see how even a GTAV port would perform on Switch.
It's interesting you say that with the death of Miiverse and the lack of Miis in the Switch line-up that I'm inclined to believe this may actually be true.
Did KH 1.5 and 2.5 have similar long names in the MC list?
Kingdom Hearts HD I.5 ReMIX <Kingdom Hearts Final Mix/Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories/Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days>
Kingdom Hearts HD II.5 ReMIX <Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix/Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep Final Mix/Kingdom Hearts ReCoded>

I don't think you can say that the Wii U was a console that Japan "actually bought".
I think he was implying (wrongly, to me) that Switch could be seen as a 3DS successor in terms of hw sales popularity (unlinke Vita and Wii U) and so arguing if Minecraft could become even an hottest seller than it has been so far

Good numbers for 2.8.
as for FFXV:
Dammit it's slowing down for it's road to 1M

I'm surprised to see that 2.8 outsold 1.5 and 2.5's first week sales. However, I don't think the hype is there for KH3 to catch KH2 numbers, Japan or overseas. I'd love for it to do well, though.
They should just record an EP like Florence did so other tracks can be used for spin-offs.

Don't worry, all shall be revealed soon.
Probably not, but I'm expecting 100,000 minimum. Anything under is just disappointing.
PS3/360 version? Lol.

This should tell you everything about why nintendo is going with an underpowered home console and an overpowered handheld in the Switch.
Pokemon XY VS Pokemon SunMoon (in two weeks the dream is over)
It should've been better since SM is perfection compared to that shit XY. But alas, this is the twilight time of 3DS and the legs will be no more ;__;7
Because... they want to sell niche sub-200k games to otakus? ?_?
Yep, it would have to be the PS/360 version or a downgraded PS4/One version. But, I'd still be curious how it would perform. There's been an ongoing debate for well over a decade as to whether the biggest M-rated third party games would find an audience on a Nintendo system, so it would be good to get some hard evidence one way or the other. (In all candor, I wouldn't be buying it, just not my thing, but, still very curious how it would perform.)

And what exactly was everything, again?
Checking Dengeki I've noticed that for a while but it's crazy the legs Siege had, it's gonna outsell the latest Call of Duty and might be able to match BF1 at this pace

Well it deserves it as it's fricking good game.
Well GTAV has already sold well over a million in Japan between PS3 and PS4 now. How much more of a market could there be? Even if people who like that sort of game might also own a Switch, I think they would have already bought it before.
...at what point was it not a console?
????
A traditionally portable game series does better on a portable system that has a way bigger install base than the console all the while the portable version sells about as much as the previous entry in the series.
The only thing to gleam from this is that a unified system in this case would have actually been detrimental to the total sales because the home console sales seem to have been the only growth to the series (maybe some people double dipping?)
Much less one people buy?

Well Vita has price going for it in comparison to the PS4. The Switch, on the other hand...

Switch will be a console, portable or hybrid depending on the argument.
