Hence why there is no Heavenly Sword 2 or Enslaved sequel. And hence why Ninja Theory was stuck working on a preexisting licence than being given the flexibility to work on their own IP. The worst lesson from those two bombings was to not trust Ninja theory with a new IP.
And DmC's bombing is far more complex than Ninja theory making an unappealing game. But overall Capcom knew exactly what they were getting into when they signed up for Ninja Theory's DmC game. And I'm willing to bet that it was Capcom's prerogative to make a more "casual appealing" DMC.
Ninja Theory did exactly what they were suppose to in this case: they made a well-reviewed, more casual appealing DmC (even if it failed to capture casuals or the original DMC audience). At best, NT is making DmC 2. At worst, they're work on progressively less appealing IPs from now on. But they're certainly not folding and I'm positive they'll continue to get work from publishers.

“Because firstly you’ll never have enough internal capacity – given the expense involved in making games – to keep your portfolio level where it needs to be. Guys like Ninja Theory and Dontnod who – in the case of Ninja Theory have a proven track record of delivering quality products more or less on time, and at an expected level of quality – I mean yeah, you have to keep working with those guys.”
Just want to be clear, is it 100k sold lifetime so far in America or did they actually sold that much last month?
Well to make more clear,
FE standalone > SC:TiT PS3
FE bundle > SC:TiT PSV
SC:TiT is actually less than FE retail, and PS3 ~ 86%.
The first page top 10 is not include bundle with HW.
3DS sold around 190k units.
Oh, yes, 3 more passed 100k.

the latter is definitely impossible.
This is so fucking depressing. Have any third party Wii U games sold 200k or more? I can't imagine any of the third parties are happy with the sales of their games on Wii U.Oh, yes, 3 more passed 100k.

I don't get it.He edited.
Wii < 100k
Those games will definantely bomb (dont know about pikmin) But the whole NPD thread of march will be about ridiculing lego city and MonHun.

I don't get it.
If Xbox 360 = 302K and is 41% of the market, then we get that the total market is about 737K. Remove the Xbox 360 and that leaves 435K for the other three systems.
But Wii U is 66K. And Wii is less than 100K. And PS3 is less than 250K.
At most that leaves a 20K gap and I don't see how to fill it.
66K + 100K + 250K = 416K at most...
Am I missing something?
If Wii is less than 100k there's something wrong with the numbers.
Microsoft said that they had 41% of market share.
That means that Wii+WiiU+PS3 = 434k
If Wii U = 66k and Wii=100k, PS3 would be 268k not < 250k.

If those are the only ones to cross 100k, I'm just now realizing how poorly MH3U is going to do on Wii U next month. There just aren't enough systems out there owned by MH fans and it's gonna be like 20k or less.
So is the 3DS 190K estimate decent? Or would that be considered poor?
Why would the bundle count as a physical sale if it comes with a digital copy?
Damn, even with the new game bundle/color 3DS couldn't break 200k this month?
I don't believe we have an example of Microsoft using revenue previously.Can it be interpreted as revenue? I'm guessing not.
Okay so...
[360] 302K
[PS3] ~201K - ~249K..."very close to 250K?"
[3DS] ~190K
[DS] ~101K - 149K
[WII] ~50K - ~99K
[WIU] ~66K
[PSV] ~38K
[PSP] ~1K - ~9K
Wii + Wii U + PS3 = 435K
Wii + DS + 3DS + Wii U = 455K
PSV + PSP + PS3 + PS2 (negligible) = Less than 302K
NPD said:Looking at hardware sales on an average per week basis, all platforms showed an increase from January into February.
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Retail sales - 95,000
Bundle sales - 22,000
Digital sales - 63,000
Total - 180,000
So Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time at least sold 95,000 units.
Because all the MH fans will be buying a Wii U in March...right?If those are the only ones to cross 100k, I'm just now realizing how poorly MH3U is going to do on Wii U next month. There just aren't enough systems out there owned by MH fans and it's gonna be like 20k or less.
Couldn't it alternatively be.Fire Emblem: Awakening

3DS version to the rescue!!!

Retail 117k
Bundle 22k
Digtal 41k
Total - 180k
Sly > 117k <139k?
Last year their numbers didn't line up on unit basisI don't believe we have an example of Microsoft using revenue previously.
We know that FE sold 63k digitally so no, it can't be this
If MH4 doesn't come to North America I will rage so hard.3DS version to the rescue..! Of maybe giving MH3U 80k between both platforms.
NO HOPE.
NO FUTURE.
NO MH4.

Yeh, I noted the same. Even taking 41.4%, doesn't sum right.
If those are the only ones to cross 100k, I'm just now realizing how poorly MH3U is going to do on Wii U next month. There just aren't enough systems out there owned by MH fans and it's gonna be like 20k or less.
So if this is set in stone, then I guess Sly didn't do too terribly in the end then. Hopefully the game has some legs...
What about Sly Cooper digital sale?
It might just come out on another platform...If MH4 doesn't come to North America I will rage so hard.
Naw, if Bandai's willing to bring over Naruto SD and Project X Zone, they'll bring over anything.JP only.
