Media Create Sales (Famitsu)

>japan
>summer break

I cant WAIT for the lite numbers
Its going to be fucking insane

Only Poketards push the stigma that Yo-kai Watch is a dead series that no one cares about.

>21k total is the SAME as 280K

By the way, there's a typo there for YW4, lifetime sales so far are supposed to be 210,504.

>Pokémon finally fell out
Hooray

pokemon, smash and lite will be crazy at xmas. I hope smash can pass mk on worldwide sales.
Pokemon and ac will be the real battle

They get 6 weeks instead of 12 but it exists

Just 1 digit of difference fa m.

Yo-kai Watch 4 also didn't come out the week that Media Create is reporting. The fact that it still sold out most of its stock is still impressive for how hard the series gets shat on here.

LGPE was charting only because of the bundle that makes the game like 30 dollar

only because he posted the top 10 and not the usual top20

Wait, there are countries that have 12 weeks?
In Germany it's 6 weeks as well

>12
Americans have fucking 3 months of summer break?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summer_vacation#By_country

Well yeah, it differs by country

I assume 12 is an American thinh because the UK has it as 6 too.

Italy too and probably france too since they have even more holidays than us.

Something interesting to note. AOT2 did better on Switch then PS4. Despite switch’s success in Japan there was always the reality 3rd party games did better, at least initially, on PS. This is one of the first big examples of that not being the case. The first of many if you ask me.

why do you care youre not japanese you filthy weeb

Most third party multiplats do better on Switch in Japan unless there was a year or more difference in release date.

Land of the free, bitches.

Spain here
We got 12 weeks
Suck it up cucks

As far as media create and Famitsu numbers went that wasn’t always the case.

To add to this: gematsu.com/2018/03/media-create-sales-3-12-18-3-18-18

[PS4] Attack on Titan 2 (Limited Edition Included) (Koei Tecmo, 03/15/18) – 28,480 (New)
[NSW] Attack on Titan 2 (Limited Edition Included) (Koei Tecmo, 03/15/18) – 22,941 (New)

The original release of the game had done better on PS4, so it's even more significant for this particular game.

>the first
painfully incorrect

the games i enjoy are made in japan, so seeing success in japan means i have a better chance of getting more games

Explains a lot

It will be 99.99% Nintendo with a tiny sliver that says “other”

I thought you died chartanon. Glad to have you back.

>All those people around Yea Forums saying that YKW4 wouldn't even sell 100k
>The same people will backpedal and say that it flopped despite selling 200k

This is all famitsu data then? Cool.

>you can see the exact moment Japan went "nah, fuck snoy"

>yw2 sold 1.3 MILLION in the first week
>200k
>anything but bombing

Yes yes, data and nips sucking cock and what not.
BUT WHERE'S PACMAN???

>in a console kids dont have
get gelp, holy shit

So you think parents are buying their kids a $300 device that is big and breaks easily
lmao
Kids are just now going to enter the switch install base with the lite

I didn't know you guys switched over to Famiitsu after the other group went private with their numbers, but I'm very pleased you did.

>All the charts are here too

The absolute fucking state of Activision blizzard.

>The absolute fucking state of Activision blizzard.

I think he means in the sense of ActiBlizzard publishing WoW, a competing MMO, or something.

carry on then

I really wonder what will happen when picture related hits Japan.

Is Playstation done for in Japan?

PS4 is, though FF7R is the most anticipated game in famitsu week after week.
It feels like sony has abandoned Japan though, like they dont care much about them and JP people noticed this

sony is dead

Consoles were already dead. Now they're double dead as anyone who wants to play on a TV can just use a Switch.
PS5 is going to come out with a sad whimper.

yes

youtube.com/watch?v=59yuBFRSZdg

NINTENDO WON

I expect nothing but NSW and NSL tags for the entirety of 2020 now.

>Consoles were already dead.
People keep saying this, but whenever people say this they're basing it entirely on Playstation alone underperforming.
Xbox was never even in the running, so using it in the data would just be wrong.

The fucking Wii U was outselling the PS4 in Japan all the way up until Nintendo dropped support for it and sales plummeted. The Wii U.

Home consoles as a concept is not dead in Japan. People always say this though just because Playstation was dropping. But that's exactly it, Playstation was dropping. And Playstation is not synonymous with the very concept of home consoles. It's but one line of home consoles, that is no longer doing well.

THE AWARD FOR GIMMICK OF THE YEARa

Why does NoA dub over the videos, while NoE gives us subtitles?
Is NoA not confident in their audience being able to read while NoE are? No but for real I am confused.

sony abandoned japan, it is what it is.

Japan was not part of their future Woke Vision

>that wasn’t always the case
Except it was, the only ones that sold better on other platforms were the ones with a gap between dates.

The fact that the PS4 and WiiU are so close just proves consoles are dead in Japan.
SNES sold 17 million, PS2 sold 23 million.
Wii and PS3 only managed 13 and 10 million respectively.

Americans can't read, Europeans are used to watching English media with subtitles.

>We barely beat a 6 years old console with our brand new in the country that was always nintendo-favored, but ps4 was so much better than even there it was doing better for a while

Also, japanese people are mostly mobile players and way rather play mobile games than console games. They're the scum of Earth, not even sjw are this bad.

Barring some surprise new franchise to take Japan by storm exclusively on a Playstation, or Capcom shitting out a bunch of Monster Hunters, functionally yes.

Playstation does good in the west because most people buy it for
>annual sports game: FIFA/Madden/NBA
>GTAV(or RDR2 since that's available)
>annual Call of Duty

It's certainly not the exclusives.
But what among that is going to appeal to Japan?

seething

Too busy to stare at the screen and read so they just rather listen to the info while doing something else.

>bringing your america obsession into a jp sales thread
go commit rope neck

Why do the posters here feel like shills?

>We barely beat a 6 years old console
In just 2 years

Last I remember U.S. age demographic for Switch was something like ~15% for under 18. Japan I think it was higher at ~30%.
But I think I remember the data being from 2018 Q1, so it might have changed, I haven't checked current data. Nintendo's website might have something since the anual meeting just happened.

Still, nowhere near the 3DS install base in terms of kids.

>barely
>outperforms six (6) years of sales in less than half that time
>six years of price cuts, hardware revisions, and bundles from an alleged "industry leader" blown away in less than 2 and a half years
No wonder you're mad, I would be too if my shitty moviebox got obliterated by a fucking tablet.

>Splatoon 2 still in the top 10

On the land of nintendo. Now let's look at total sales.
oh no.

It's Japan, I wouldn't doubt New Leaf being somewhere in the Top 20 still.

Post the WW and FY numbers nincel.

Why? This is a thread about Japan.

Why are these threads just Nintendo fag circle jerk?

you're in a thread soley about hardware and software sales and the discussion thereof. i'm not really sure what you were expecting when you clicked on this thread

In Japan, land of the people who's games are all going to phones because the only thing people care about there is things being mobile.
All I do is pity you people, stuck with a console that is barely any stronger than the WiiU.
Enjoy being proud of the sales on a country you're not even part of.

They aren't. You're just seething.

I pity you if you have a ps console
Its nothing but trash an censorship

>it's Nintendo's system that has the all the rehashes
Lmao.

Learned that one from MHW, I'm sure.

Yes and Nintendo's biggest sellers are also casual shit(Pokemon,Zelda, and BING BING Wahoos)
What's your point?

quite a switch bump

and the nintendo legs team keeps going

instant deflection
lmao
go on, defend FIFA instead of deflecting fags

How is it deflection?
Casuals buy casual shit.
It's not a revelation.

So why do you brag about the PS4 sales numbers

Switch is also selling better worldwide after two years than PS4 was in the same timeframe, but that's not really relevant to a Japanese sales thread.

>Japan

are you actually trying to compare divegrass: year +1 edition to actual games with unique settings and chatacters spanning across many different genres?

What about it? are popular things bad now? I guess that means the switch doing better in japan means it's not good for japanese players to buy it anymore.

>Mario/Zelda
>unique characters spanning across many different genres
(lol)
Only pokemon even gets away with that, and then the games themselves are a pathetic joke to the point even die-hard fans are getting tired of how bad gamefreak deals with pokemon.

Sure. It also means that the PS4 is shit world wide.

>barely
COPING

>instant deflection
I called Fifa and GTA rehashes. Improve your reading comprehension.

hey, kinda reminder that time aligned, Switch still selling best that was PS4 did WW

That's got to be the most pathetic compromise I've seen someone do on Yea Forums.
Sales are bad confirmed, better never buy your favorite games.
Or we can just keep up with the "sales and numbers are only bad when it's for your side".

Seething.

And 60 million less total units sold.

cope

And PS5 has sold 40M less than Switch! Sony is FINISHED

but none of that is creative or unique because you don't like it, i understand

>time aligned
>but my current total sales
COPING

I'm sure switch will sell three times the amount it has sold total in 3 years.
dilate

Huh... 6 years is longer than 2.5 years...?
What the fuck?

The PS4 sold 3 times what it sold in its first 2 years. Why wouldn't the Switch even though it is pacing better currently?

>top 2 over 20k
>Top 7 over 10k
Software sales look like shit. Have the japs gone that hard on digital, or is nothing g but the very top selling?

All this 6 vs 2 years with the PS4 and Switch is really going to invite a ton of Switch versus PS5 shitposting using the same logic. It will probably be awful.

>Switch Lite releasing in September
Yes, it probably will

Americans only need one dub, Europe would need 6 or even more

We only get one sub though. English.
All those Big5 langauge releases are exceptions, not the rule.

Switch owners have always used launch aligned data to accurately compare sales. The only ones who constantly shitpost with illogical time-disregarding nonsense are snoyfags, who won't be able to do so since their number is smaller.

we only have 2 months and a half of summer time in here

shadowniggers won

Apparently a lot of the younger devs on the botw 2 team have been playing rdr2
On a side note both those games are awful.

>Japan thread
Wow wee.

botw was great
rdr2 was shit

When you look at sales though only the first week usually does better on ps4. Where as switch versions have longer legs and sell more in the long run

>6 years on sales with 3 versions of PS4 and multiple prices cuts where the only competition for 4 years was the fucking WiiU
>Outsold in 2 years by switch without a single price cut yet and the cheaper handheld focused revision isn't even out yet

Just you wait for that Monster Hunter World bundle

pretty much ready for pokemon

I don't understand that decision. It's a terrible mistake. It sounds like nobody actually learned from the WiiU.
While normies make most of the money you will get, you need a CORE in order to start selling your console.
If you don't have a core to buy the first 20 million units, your system is utterly fucked. It happened with both the WiiU and the Bone.
It might happen to the PS5.

I wonder how long Mario Maker will stay in the top 10.

Sony got ahead so now they're going full retard again. The Sony cycle.

Back when I was a kid we got out in the middle of June and went back in the beginning of September, so almost 3 months.
And this is in Massachusetts, a state with an educational system that competes with east Asian countries like Japan and Korea.

Nigga go back checking the ps4 software sales in the first year casual were in since day 1.
