Must be my OCD but man doesn't Wii U fuck up the legacy of 3 letters abbreviations. Just how the hell do we put it, NWU? WIU? WI2? Just as PS Vita cleared any worries (NGP being taken, PSP2 being 4...) with PSV we now face this.

Yeah, I have some free time lately.

I vote "WOO" just for the awesomeness sake.

Troll would says GC3 but I'd say NWU

This.

We can also just use WU, like how GB was just two letters.

Akiba'sTrip is doing oddly well. Is it actually any good, or is it just the 'stripping' quotient?

 

[noobie]

3DS with the 1-2 punch!

Hopefully upwards of 100k for Resident Evil, I haven't been following sales much lately though so I don't really know what to expect. One Piece is sticking up there, probably another 25-30k this week.

Edit: Though having a game that sold a little over 6k last week at #3 isn't boding well for the rest of the top 10.

Upwards of 100k? I somehow highly doubt that.

 

[Dystify]

I believe Chris said they only shipped 60k The Mercenaries.

Edit: I read it wrong, he said Azalyn expected 60k sales(?).

Anyone know how Japan has reacted to Vita price announcement? I imagine many are ecstatic given that in the Famitsu interviews post PlayStation Meeting all but one studio head expected 24,000 yen. Everyone else was expecting 30,000 or more.

Completely random and not very informative, but after the announcement, most if not all top 10 trending topics on Japan twitter were to do with PSV as far as i could tell.

3DS should've outsold the PSP this week, but it didn't...

Patapon 3 is showing decent legs now at 111k.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Resident Evil 3DS - 59k

Azasomething better werk on those predictions. He nailed again.

 

[Grimmy]

Next week is barren for both 3DS and PSP, but the week after will be interesting - Little Battlers vs. Zelda: Ocarina of Time

 

[Nirolak]

Little Battlers

This game is actually releasing?

I'm... shocked.

 

[FINALFANTASYDOG]

3DS should've outsold the PSP this week, but it didn't...

This has been pointed out by retailer blogs all over the place in Japan now....

The problem with new 3ds sales and why Nintendo still isn't shipping out new units is the absurd amount of used units floating around the market place now(it's gotten better in the past 2 weeks though, buy-back prices have gone up), first we have to go through the cheap cheap used units before new units will sell.

Holy fuck
Not even DQ can save you now, Wii

Little Battlers should debut higher than Ocarina given it's the new big Level-5 IP that has a TV anime, manga, and toys already available.

Save? Nintendo basically admitted that "the systrem is dead, wait for next year", just yeasterday.
Btw the new Yakuza has been launched already?
