Haven't been around these threads for a while, but a quick question: what is "DS+"?

And Panther, next thread, could you list them in the correct order (highest to lowest selling). I'm not sure what order you're going by when you list them and then DSi is randomly at the bottom.
DS+ already contains both the DSL and the DSi, therefore the DSi is listed separately at the end of the chart.

Oops i forgot, to add the CG movie Edition - so the numbers aren`t THAT bad compared to previous ds tales games...

Tales of the Tempest first week: 83.298 ; ltd: 205.541
Tales of Innocence first week: 106.733; ltd: 210.697

I'm not sure how much ToT and ToI sold on the first day, but ToH had a strong first day sales and didn't sell much better for the week. It is selling better first week, but it might drop like a rock and barely reach the LTD of other To DS games.

Yeah. The ToS:KoR started at 151K and struggled past 200K.

How many 1m+ sellers has the DS got now? Has it surpassed the previous records?

What's the numbers breakdown of 1m+, 2m+, 3m+, 4m+, 5m+ games (with 1m+ obviously including the games that have sold millions more too)?

He _is_ listing them from top to bottom, you just couldn't figure out what DS+ meant ;)

Yeah, ToH is is about 140k with both versions. I think it has a chance to hit 300k at the least.

I really don't think so. I'm at work so I can't access a lot, but I'm pretty sure Tales games rarely show anything resembling legs. (of course maybe it will do better on DS?)

Hm? Nuh uh!

DS+ | 204,813
PSP | 71,540
WII | 91,641
PS3 | 33,688
360 | 11,797
PS2 | 6,659

PSP should be down one more. Unless that was a mistake, I figured he was ordering them in a different way.

NICE! This arrived the other day and now my New Years party is all sorted.

I wonder if those DSLite sales will start to drop off now that DSiWare is up and running. I didn't really expect the old model to increase on the way into the holidays, but I guess it's a bit cheaper than the i.

Anything on Let's Tap? I twas released this week right? The game felt so fresh an Wiiish...

__. [WII] Let's Tap (Sega) - 5,400 / NEW

Oh shit... Is the game at least decent?

Tales of Hearts CG maybe on place no.20? As it isn´t listed on the other list with new releases.

And not bad numbers for Suikoden, atleast considering the strong competition this week.

Ah, well, so much for Let's Tap being a commercial success... I was wrong.

Maybe it will be a hit in the US, Europe and Australia?

What were your expectations for Let´s Tap? It is a low budget and very quirky game with no marketing so it´s no surprise for me. Actually I think 5k is a decent number for what it is.

Looks like Wii Music will at least sell out its initial shipment by the end of the year

MK Wii will reach 2M pretty soon.

Taiko Drum Wii number seems off..didn't it only do 115K last week? The LTD should be at 185K then..

Its Namco. They invented the escort titles last year, and the numbered entries this year, I'm sure they will find a new excuse to not put up ToH numbers alongside the others >500k.

Isn´t Tales of Innocence still considered to be a main-entry?

So Wii Music will hit 300k, good for it because when combined with UK and US (when December NPD hits) it has at least sold 1 million at this point

Hmmm. The sell-through % would be interesting to know.

04. [WII] Animal Crossing: City Folk (Nintendo) - 144,500 / 731,500

Two more million-sellers for Nintendo systems, though they'll be hard pressed to make it this year. Wow.

Is it just me or are those pretty disappointing hardware numbers all-around? Last year's numbers for the week before Christmas?

Frillen said:
with two weeks left.

By NPD reckoning, yes. By typical Japanese YTD reckoning, there's only one more week left.

kswiston said:
It should at least reach 750k, hopefully higher.

Definitely. I was wondering if it had a solid shot at 1 million, but it seems to be matching Crisis Core too closely, which is why I wonder at the sell-through.

30. [WII] Wii de Asobu: Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (Nintendo) - 27,000 / 52,000

Wow @ the sales for #30. The New Year's buying season is in full-swing. :D
 
All-Time Top50

Wii Sports > Mario Kart DS, should pass FF VII next week.

Pokémon Platinum up 4 ranks from #53 to #49.

Mario Kart Wii is currently on #56, should enter the Top50 soon.


Rank / System / Title / First week / LTD / Publisher / LTD as of

Nintendo should be fucking happy with the performance of Jungle Beat for Wii. They probably only needed to sell 5,000 copies to make a profit on it, and they dectupled it. It will be interesting to see how the Pikmin one does, the franchise is did better on the Gamecube then Jungle Beat.

I dont know about the expecations for Let's Tap, but Jonnyram mentioned earlier in this thread that there were at least some commercials for Lets Tap:

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=14053704&postcount=175

I dont know how much commercials there is (or has been) for Let's Tap in Japan in general though :\ Vinnk mentioned (which is quoted the same post that i linked to above) that he hadnt seen any ads for it and that no one talked about Let's Tap in his town.

The game looks to be a low budget game as you say, so maybe that the developer and/or the publisher actually made (or will make) some money on it already? :)

POP and NFS Undercover were only released on the 360 this week ?
Need For Speed Undercover were released for the PS3, it is in the Famitsu numbers which about 19.000 copies sold :) I dont know about Prince of Persia though, but i guess it was released for the Xbox 360 only this week in Japan.

EDIT: I edited my post when i wrote this, but i see now that sensi97 already answered this :) And thanks for posting the Prince of Persia release date in Japan, sensi97! :)

It's going to be the best selling Capcom game ever (probably) in Japan

Wii Music had another bump. Unexpected

suikoden gaiden 2 - 41k ltd
suikoden tactics - 64k ltd

Isn't Let's Tap basically a one-button rhythm game? I swear to god, put flashing lights and techno in anything and you people like it.

By their new Tales of Ten nope, neither Innocence nor Legendia.
That comment was related to the Tales Studio-developed games, rather than mainline entries. Innocence IS a 'mothership' entry.

So, NamBan is expecting 400,000 sales for Tales of Hearts...Considering the first shipment was ~250,000 (200,000 anime, 50,000 CG) and has sold ~141,000 in total first week it's going to have to hang on like crazy to reach 400,000!
