Midly surprised by Bancho 6, was expecting something around 20k. Too bad sales are gonna plummet next week, though. Maybe it can crawl its way to 50k LTD?

And cool to see the 3DS is holding ok compared to last year. N3DS doing its job.

At least the PS4 is doing better despite only having GTA on the list. The fact that GTA does so well in Japan shocks me.

PS4 might be interesting to watch this year, I guess.
Click to expand...

I think that is pretty much the only interesting thing to follow in Japan now, at least of what is being covered by this thread. Everything else seems to be pretty set in stone. Vita doing ok'ish, hovering around 15-20K, 3DS doing ok'ish hovering around 40-50K. Wii U being Wii U, and xbox... yeah. I don't see much changing here.

I bet Canis Lupis is very excited to see how his "Vita to outsell 3DS in 2015 #believe"-prediction is coming along though.

The only hardware that have a potential of either doing relatively good along the year, or failing to meet expectations spectacularly, seems to me to be the PS4.

Looks like Final Fantasy Explorers was stock-constrained last week, at least somewhat.

Really sad about Kenka Bancho... I've only played one entry in this series, but I really enjoyed it. I hope they try again eventually.

18./21. [3DS] Sumikko Gurashi: Koko ga Ochitsukundesu <ETC> (Nippon Columbia) {2014.11.20} (¥5.184) - 3.008 / 91.674 <80-100%> (-18%)

Gotta get those 100k!

20./16. [3DS] Attack on Titan: The Last Wings of Mankind - Chain <ACT> (Spike Chunsoft) {2014.12.04} (¥5.378) - 2.852 / 72.057 <80-100%> (-29%)

Honestly, a surprising result. I thought it would have done more around 50k units.

Everyone might as well pack it up in Japan, it's Nintendo land and 3DSville.

When does the first round of Japanese centric games launch on PS4 in Japan? (Disgaea V on 3/17)

I see x1 being discontinued in Japan end of year with those numbers. 300 a week damn, how long did it take the 360 to fall that far.

I think that is pretty much the only interesting thing to follow in Japan now, at least of what is being covered by this thread. Everything else seems to be pretty set in stone. Vita doing ok'ish, hovering around 15-20K, 3DS doing ok'ish hovering around 40-50K. Wii U being Wii U, and xbox... yeah. I don't see much changing here.

I bet Canis Lupis is very excited to see how his "Vita to outsell 3DS in 2015 #believe"-prediction is coming along though.

The only hardware that have a potential of either doing relatively good along the year, or failing to meet expectations spectacularly, seems to me to be the PS4.

I agree. It seems that 3DS, Vita and Wii U performance are not going to be much different of what is currently projected with all systems having YoY decline and all that, it seems the only thing that can be either a failure or a success is the PS4. To see if the Japanese content will grant the PS4 the enough momentum to leave its range of Vita sales and start to sell better or if it will completely fail and be the final nail on the coffin for the console market in Japan.

Well it's one of those questions of whether there's a lack on interest in the series in general or just on the 3DS. It's probably worth trying on Vita though.

Given the high success rate of third-party games on 3DS, I'd say the former is more likely. Next week we are going to have an unknown new IP from a niche software house opening at 50k if not more on 3DS.

Goddamn, no words can describe how poorly the XB1 is selling in Japan. 300 in a week? Below 45K LTD in 4 months? Microsoft might as well discontinue it and skip Japan entirely next gen

Good numbers for many 3DS softwares, FF explorer included! ANd for Smash U. And for GTAV on PS4.
Good hold so far for the 3ds compared to last year, while PS4 chase to Wii U's starts to warm-up the engines.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Yeah, Kenka Bombcho 6, if you know what I mean ( &#861;° &#860;&#662;&#865;°)

Aside from that, good week for 3DS (for Famitsu, a bit higher than last year too), New 3DS is doing a decent job. Wii U's YOY drop could have been bigger, IMHO. But yeah, it's doing pretty bad. Both PSV and PS4 are low as well (PSV slightly better), but PS4 has big games in the future, so it has chances to rise in a good way and for a good amount of weeks. Hopefully.
