God Eater 2 on PSP only sold 112k FW where as the Vita version sold 266k.
With it being a year later and the PSP being dead, and it being an expansion this time around, AND PS4 still making up some of the difference... they didn't flush more than 50k, which will be made up in the west from the PS4 version.
It already did ages ago according to famitsu.
don't worry, something to complain will be found
Minecraft vita sold on par to the mobile versions (even if it was released later) and better than the ipad/PC/ps3/Xbox versions.
I hope that the cart version can reach 100k sold.

If it sells the same amount it did this week, it would need 17 more weeks to reach 4 million. Its possible.

What are the third and the first place in that graph, more specifically? Just to get more informations on the matter.
I honestly have no idea, but the fact that they're releasing Kiwami on PS4 in the west first and PSV as well shows that they're trying to promote the game to a western audience as well which is good.
So yeh, even though the first game didn't exactly take off they're giving the expansion a chance which is good to see. And Koei have been fairly good with overseas support recently in terms of the games they're releasing and platforms they're supporting.
Whyyyyy??? Except for the memory card, don't they give two F2P title with one P2P game? That does not sound good at all.T_T

Depends on sales for Golden Week, I guess. It's possible, but I don't see ACNL staying at 4.5k much longer.
Thanks! So, mobile + tablet are just shy of 500,000 copies, correct?
Awesome pic.

That's pretty impressive. It seems to be doing well in the west as well.

It should, slowly but surely, make it to 4M.

I'm balking at those PS4 numbers compared to how it did this time last year.
You can send me the stuff ...
Yu-Gi-Oh! did amazingly well for a 3000yen PSN-exclusive:
3DS : Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal: World Duel Carnival ( Konami ) { 2013-12-05 } - 38,451 / 68,766
PSP : Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 6 ( Konami ) { 2011-09-22 } - 66,007 / 122,800
WII : Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Duel Transer ( Konami ) { 2011-04-21 } - 4,088 / 13,743
NDS : Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2011: Over The Nexus ( Konami ) { 2011-02-24 } - 22,401 / 55,167
PSP : Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 5 ( Konami ) { 2010-09-16 } - 53,380 / 98,423\
3 days in and it already outsold the 3DS game's LTD.

165k from MC in 1 month...
Is it also available as a retail release or digital only in Japan?
Last year was day 1 launch haha. Of course it'll be higher.
Digital only for now. Next month, there will be a vita cart version.
Come on.

First time the 3DS has been topped by Vita in quite some time. SmokeyDave must be ecstatic
Uh, isn't that just a survey? Not actual sales numbers.

A 92% drop YOY, the age of Sony is done!!!
launch week
Just like the Famitsu digital sale charts.
So based on surveys and total downloads, the breakdown is guessed?

It looks like Sony has a pretty great line-up for Q1 of 2015. What is supposed to be releasing for the next 9 months that pull some numbers in Japan for 2015? I really hope FFXV releases in December over there.
Probably because hunting games on consoles in Japan seems to miss the point entirely of the genre. Hunting games seems better on consoles for the west.

With Tabata aiming for a WW release of FFXV, that's pretty much impossible. For the rest of the year, we at least have Persona 5 and MGS:TPP. Hopefully more is filled out and announced in the coming months for the back half of the year in Japan.
And P5 and MGS being cross-gen doesn't mean they're not gonna really push hardware. We're already seeing big pushes in PS4 numbers from a cross-gen musou game.

Yeah, I expect P5 and MGS to sell. Dragons Dogma Online is also coming out this year. It would be nice if Deep Down came out this year, esp since that game was revealed in February 2013, a game which was supposed to be a launch title. :S Worldwide release seems a bit counter-productive when they can release the game 1-2 months earlier in Japan.
Deep Down (?)
Dragons Dogma Online
Final Fantasy (? #believe)
MGSV: Phantom Pain
Persona 5
Ys
I think it is because of the memory card. Looking at Amazon.jp, the bundle cost 1,000 yen more than the Vanilla version and contains a memory card that costs 4,000 yen.

That's a pretty impressive software lineup for the JPN market

Yeah, I think it's gone from 18k to 22k and now 24k. PS4 going up and up!

Well then. Glad Vita got that boost. Were the LE God Eater Vita's out this week? This article has the release date as 4th of Feb.
That PS4 YoY drop though. poor PS4. Doomed.
Fuuraiki 3 did a lot better than I expected. I mean, it's tiny numbers but it seemed like an odd PC port of a small game anyway.
Don't understand those Hakuouki sales though. Is that a new game? I thought the series was much bigger than that.

It's a port of a PSP game but yes, the game sold badly. Perhaps PSV is not the right platform for otome games?
It looks like Monster Hunter with good combat and a more interesting setting/ theme. I plan on playing the shit out of the PS4 version.
The hunting game genre is intriguing and has a great flow, but I'm sorry Monster Hunter is just not fun

I wonder if MM3D is going to mirror ALBW. Very good for this installment so far. And the 3DS is up YOY! Neat, maybe AC:NL indicates that a more casual audience is buying the system? Maybe because of the N3DS and faceplates?
The PS4 version of GE2B is below what I expected and hardware is lower too. Does anyone else feel like this is the PSV's swan song hardware wise?
This was a good hardware week compared YOY if you exclude the PS4 launch numbers.
