Japanese Sales: 2012 Jul 02 - Jul 08

These sales are DISGUSTING.

To the hell with the anticipation, really.


edit: wow.... oh, I just kinda start realizing how actually bad they are. Makes me wanna throw up/cry/pass out.
 
Pity for Level 5 about Time Travelers. Interesting that it sold pretty much the exact same on 3DS and Vita concidering the big difference in userbase. It is yet another example that the userbase size doesnt always matter.

I honestly can't tell if SCEJ's marketing push helped Time Travelers at all since the game sold so poorly.

Probably helped tell the Vita userbase it existed. They bought it...well the cliched reason that they've probably got money for games! Beat the system with the far bigger userbase...thats...something?

3DS sales remain surprisingly buoyant despite the XL incoming. There at what it was averaging before the recent slew of releases (including Pokemon).

EDIT: Vita also not down to those very very low levels again; seems to be getting some momentum back. Not much but its there.
 
Sony to Level 5: "All according to expectations, right?"


Damn, Media Create ain't kidding matching Famitsu.
If only NPD had any competition whatsoever at all. =\

That's just pathetic. Man, Ishii is never going to get to make a game again.

Yes, at least we can make the Vita look good even despite the megaton bomb!
 
Don't worry guys, the LOLOLOL over Level 5 isn't over yet. Next week Famitsu will reveal the release date of Fantasy Life! Hahahahahaha.

I'm not mean like you with Level 5, but I'm really anticipating it'll be released on 11th October, gah :(
 
Etrian Odyssey IV had a huge drop 14,639 / 110,145 (-85%)

It had a first shipment of 126,000 units so it hasn't been due to supply constraints.

It would have sold 20k on the 3DS instead then? :)

Dont know, but it would have sold more - when they announced it to be multiplattform it was an admission that they are struggling and dont expect it to sell well. SO far their hasnt been top seller which have been multiplattform releases.

Its probably wrong - but exclusives seem to gather more attention and hype.

nvm - 20k down.... 480k to go :-)
 
Wow, TT is as much a bomb as Ninokuni PS3. Damn. This must hurt a lot. Even though it's some kind of ultra high budget Visual Novel, it wasn't even able to outsell the low-budget ones.

Also: Bye, bye chances to ever see it localized. Too bad, I'd have really liked to play it.
 
TT sold basically at similar levels of Virtue's Last Reward. Woah, indeed.
 
I wonder why only Nintendo consoles are always doomed. 3DS in it's firsts six months performed much better than vita and I've read tons of features about the Nintendo Doom.
 
Time Travelers ultra cratered, no one cared about that game. It is ridiculous to speculate that it could have sold better if it had been an exclusive title.
