Kind of depressing that Disgaea 5 didn't even make the top 30 this week. It sold what 22,000 during launch week? That series is dead or dying I'm guessing.

Resident Evil Revelations 2 didn't do too bad after all adding digital sales.
Media Create also points a loss of sales opportunity for Bloodborne, since was out of stock at many places.
Huh? But I checked Amazon.jp this morning and it was in stock. I don't understand why MC and Tsutaya are lying. That game is a huge bomb.Media Create Sell-Through

You're arguing Xenoblade 3ds is a huge bomb? On what grounds?
Given its very limited install base + niche title + downport, it debuted a good bit higher than I would have expected it to
If that 60% week one sell thru is accurate, it's probably right on target too

Where does the 25% number come from? I believe that 10% were reported by Yoshida, or am i mixing that up with another game?
The game is solid so I've heard. That being said they should have just released the Wii version back in 2011 maybe?
The release timing can really affect unit sales (same goes to Disgaea 5 and such).
Also, I think people are grossly underestimating digital sales. To be able to download a game without having to leave home, deal with clerks, buses, trains, traffic, probably get the game early if pre-load is supported, not have to deal with changing out discs or running down your disc drive. A lot of pro's to going digital.
I am sure people will still ask for more proof regarding the game being sold out. i am not saying it would have lit up the charts if it was in stock but the drop would have been lower.
i almost feel like some people want games/hardware to fail or do bad just so they can make fun of its sales or get satisfaction in calling it a "bomba". the worst are the ones that change narratives depending on their platform preference.
3DS owners had a demo to convince them not to buy.Do you think a good portion of people bought the "Wii U version" of Rodea mostly to play the original Wii game? Clearly there was seemingly no demand for the 3DS version it seems like...
There's a physical game in the retail package and a code for the other system's version.I'd really like to know the digital numbers for this one. I really think the audience completely shifted to digital for this licence, and like Pocket Football Club in Europe, not many people see the point of just buying it retail for a code.
It is solid from what I've heard from friends over in Japan (and from our OT), but its got a lot of things going against it.
Maybe WoM will carry it over to 5k!
Sold out in a lot of stores.
Retail should be over 200K in the end.
With digital sales, etc. -> ~250K

One is the Wii version, the other is the WiiU version.

Really?
20% of the LTD being digital sales would be basically unheard of, especially for a game of this kind.
Over 200K can be 220K or even 230KReally?

DQX 2nd expansion pack seems to performing well in pre-orders. Is the game a success, after all?
Media Create said:Old titles such as last week's popular titles led market
・ Total software sales were 817 thousand copies, which were 63.60% compared to last week.
Due to intensive releases of popular titles last week, a ratio of new software sales to total software sales plunged from 69.55% last week to 40.29% this week.
Meanwhile, old software sales increased to 124.72% of last week, so old titles such as last week's popular titles led the whole market.
Sales of "Bloodborne" for the PS4 greatly decreased to 14.82% of last week (from 153 thousand copies last week to 23 thousand copies this week) because many retailers were out of the title and suffered a opportunity loss.
・ Debuting at the top spot, "3rd Super Robot Wars Z: Heaven Prison chapter" sold 230 thousand copies in 2 platforms (109 thousand copies for the PS3, 121 thousand copies for the Vita).
Its sales fell below combined sales of previous installment, "3rd Super Robot Wars Z: Time Prison Chapter" released in April 2014 for 2 platforms, which had sold 271 thousand copies (142 thousand copies for the PS3, and 128 thousand copies for the Vita).
As for the sales breakdown, sales for PS3 edition decreased by more than 30 thousand copies, while Vita edition kept almost the same sales volume as previous installment, so it can be said that Vita edition successfully kept fans of the franchise compared to PS3 edition.
・ "Xenoblade," which was the first exclusive title for the New3DS, sold 57 thousand copies (sell-through rate: 58.66%), falling below initial weekly sales of its Wii edition released in 2010 (83 thousand copies; sell-through rate: 76.29%).
Since sales of the New3DS system (the New3DS + the New3DS LL) slightly increased by 4 thousand consoles from last week, its hardware pulling effect is limited.

We have two different perspective so i can't argue with you
I am really jealous that Japan gets Fire Emblem in June and we in 2016.An update of 3DS 2015 line-up.
comparing a rpg with a rhythm game in my opinion is like comparing apples with oranges, or like comparing DQVIII with DQH, or FFXII with Dissidia, or Majora Mask with Zelda Musou

Project Mirai in May better be decent or I'm never touching a 3DS Miku again. Does anyone have the break down between Project Diva and Mirai for the last few installations?
To be precise, the Persona fanbase is very faithful, to the point that buys even fighting games (Persona 4 Arena sold something like 200k units), so the comparison might not be that reaching.
I see. To be fair, he said "over 200k", if you mean what John Bender said.someone said BB will sell 200K at retail and 250K with DD sales at the end. At least that's down from DD number for all VITA games are 30% of retail.
Two game in the same IP so for me we can compare them
so I'm waiting for your comparison between P&D Super Mario Bros and New Super Mario Bros 2, same IP same system
