I'm assuming the names sound better in Japanese lol.
Media Create Sales: Week 47, 2015 (Nov 16 - Nov 22)
- Thread starter Chris1964
- Start date
I'm assuming the names sound better in Japanese lol.
I'm more excited about Nintendo's programmers being involved.
Still in the top 10.
Prepare, in December will be easy in TOP 3 and maybe #2 some weeks.
Atelier Sophie is a PS3 RPG that got a Vita and PS4 version. If history repeats, the PS4 version might have the lead for now, but not for long.
The game's quality is a bigger issue than sales right now. Probably too damaged for the PS4 version to gain any traction either.

Wow at Animal Flopping: amiibo Bombstival. If only it were actually good. It'll be bad if it sells well due to the holiday effect, it deserves to Bomb, considering what it is.
I wouldn't say the PS4 is reaching Wii U fast. If it continues to outsell the Wii U by 10k or so, it'll take more than a yr to catch up.
People told you that Animal Crossing was going to be the Wii U's big holiday game anyway despite Star Fox's delay. Who are these people that told you anyone in Japan cares for Star Fox I don't know. I doubt you found them in here.
Ah, right. If you can PM me the number, I'd be pleased
6 digits number for the shipment.

Week of bombas. SAO PS4, Airship Q, AC, Grand Kingdom.
SW result is a bit underwhelming if shipment was large and wom is not good. Also, hw-wise, the effect is non-existent.
I'm wondering where the Gust fanbase will go when PSV finally retires. I can't see PS4 abosrbing the whole fanbase - but it should keep doing ok numbers.
With which other platforms PS4 is competing? 3DS seems to sell quite a lot more jRPGs - 2016 should be no different.

I know Star Fox wouldn't have/won't do much better, but I'm somewhat confident that it can beat amiibo bomba. Or maybe I'll be wrong and AC will come out on top. In which case I'll need a shovel for Star Fox expectations.

It's great to see Atelier Sophie do well on PS4, I hope KT was expecting these kind of sales... I think the series deserves at least 100k first week, it's so damn good.
So much for Sumikko Gurashi have triple sales, this one not really much better than the previous.
Battlefront opening is better than I expected, but the shipment is also bigger than expected. Retailers anticipating legs because of the movie?
Vita just selling to the same audience at this point.
Aren't those Splatoon sales including the bundle now? This shouldn't be a suprise.

Also AC bombed even worse than I thought it would lol. I guess consumers are informed.

Putting "amiibo" in the title makes it easier to notice something's up, I suppose. "What do you mean amiibo? what the heck are they going to do in this game?" *reads description* "But that doesn't actually sound fun at all. oh well, there'll be a full sequel or an interesting spinoff like HHD eventually"

I think playstation will never see a game as big as splatoon again.

May be Dreams PS4 has a big chance, considering Minecraft success.
Like first party or period?
There's FFXV and DQ11.
Splatoon isn't done so it's not 100% that those two will outsell it.
TriForce Heroes, ultimately, went into 100k. For such a budget project, I'd say it ultimately did well for itself for what it was. How does it compare to Hyrule Warriors?
Nope. I hope I'm wrong but nope.
Not a chance for Dragon Quest on PS4 to beat Splatoon. Not with the 3DS version.
And even Final Fantasy XV, at this point has 1% chance for beat Splatoon. I mean, how much will sell for you FF XV? XIII has not even sold 2 million, and most likely FF XV will sell way less.
And Splatoon will most likely outsell even Final Fantasy XIII.
Splatoon > FF XIII > FF XV is the most likely scenario.

Star Wars is above my expectations. For next month, Fallout 4 > 100K is a given I would say. No surprises for the rest, but Gust must be happy to see Atelier up again after several years of decline (since Meruru ?). That Project X Zone 2 second week seems a little rude D:
Always nice to see Vita up year on year also. Grand Kingdom was always too cheap to sell on PS4. For what we know, japanese PS4 owners are barely attracted by those little projects and mostly buy big budget games (from Japan or West). Exist Archive is another game I can't see doing better on PS4 than PS Vita.
Looking at the calendar, there are few interesting PS4 games left for this year charts-wise. We have Gravity Rush Remastered on 12/10, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure : Eyes of Heaven on 12/17 and Fallout 4 the same day. I like how the Q1 2016 is shaping though.

You think it wouldn't be if it wasn't fo the bundle? The bundle is just a console + splatoon with a meager discount comparing buying the console with the game. It's not even the only options for the bundle. The game is not up there because of it.
Also, i don't think DQXI ps4 will outsell splatoon, but if FF15 does not, it would be a catastrophe.
Explain
There isn't much to explain, Splatoon will sell over 2 million and Final Fantasy is in decline.

Doesn't seem so outlandish, surprisingly.
XIII came out when the series was in a crazy high hype, like, it was madness. Plus I think PS3 was doing better at the time than PS4?
Splatoon is an extremely out of the left field success, and will very likely pass a million by the year's end in retail alone.
I don't know, I think that prediction can very well happen, we'll have to wait and see.

Final fantasy 7 remake. Possibly dq11 and XV.
Desserved. Hope Nintendo stops doing this awful spin-off games that nobody asked for and they were made only as a poor excuse to sell amiibo. This game has done nothing but hurt the Animal Crossing franchise with terrible critical and sales responses.
DQ11 is a 3DS game
Pretty much. Just waiting til I see if leave the top ten
It's also a PS4 game

Its also a NX game.
Never. The end of the world will be the cockroaches and ~15k more copies of Splatoon sold in Japan.

Very nice numbers for Star Wars!
Neither FFXV or VII remake are going to sell more than 1M in a 2M machine. I believe 1.5M for splatoon is a lock.

PS3 and Wii U? I will say it is doing rather well now compared to these consoles and has a lot more announcements to look forward to in 2016 and beyond.
3DS has sold more than 19 million compared to the 2 million userbase of PS4. There is no comparison here. PS4 is doing well enough for its current 2 million numbers and any attempt to downplay it are rather silly.
I know you tend to overestimate Splatoon a lot but expecting it to sell more than 2 million, on a console that has sold a little more than 2.6 million and will struggle to hit 4 million LTD? This is reaching.
Splatoon gained +52% last week as a result of the bundle and will continue to benefit as we get closer to Christmas.
It's not going to leave the top 10. Perhaps it would have if there was no bundle as the week before the bundle was 13.9k and 12k before that.
PS4 is not going to remain constant at 2 mil, it will keep on growing + those games mentioned are system sellers.
I see both FF games doing 1 mil.
and I really dont see Splatoon crossing 1.9 mil , 1.5 is doable

Code:
05. / 00. [PS3] Fallout: New Vegas (Bethesda Softworks) - 37.249 / NEW
09. [360] Fallout 3 (Bethesda) 30,600 / NEWI don't think Fallout 4 is popular enough to warrant a >100k opening in Japan.
Funny you say this and then point towards Splatoon, which is selling on a 2.6+ million system with a dying support going in 2016.
Also as said above, PS4 won't stop selling in 2016 so by the time FFXV (2016) and FF VII: Remake (2018) are released, PS4 will be well over 2 million.

That's quite a bold prediction. 2 million for Splatoon? Seems unlikely, but we will need to wait and see what it does weekly post-holidays before I can agree or disagree. If Splatoon drops to 10K-ish or below as a "baseline" post-holidays, well, it won't happen sadly. Also don't forget that it's selling this well now because of bundles, once the bundles are discontinued (it'll happen eventually, like the Wii Party and Mario Kart bundles were) it'll be even harder. If Wii U has about 1-2 years left (2 may be too much) Splatoon will need to sell on average at least 10-15K weekly until Wii U's discontinuation to reach it. (Which equal to roughly 520K to 780K more sales by this time next year). Pre-bundle, it's been around 10K with minor bumps due to some holidays. But who knows, maybe the holidays convert enough humans into Squids, so that WOM can go even further. But as of right now, 2 million is very unlikely.
Lol, it's like you're adding to your predicted LTD constantly. It was like 1.5-1.7 before, now it's a 2 million prediction. Let me guess, in January, you're gonna be like "OMG, 2.2 million Minimum!!"
Pretty sure Splatoon is an exception to the rule, and shouldn't be used as a metric for any other software that isn't also called Splatoon. Moreover, Splatoon isn't/wasn't a front loaded game as JRPGs all tend to be, so the comparison is even more flawed.
Splatoon is absolutely killing it. Considering Nintendo tends to focus more on what's a success in Japan rather than the rest of the world, I really hope these great sales means they try more bold, high budget new IPs like Splatoon in the future.
Or they'll just make Spla2oon and Splatoon Party for NX.
