How it's doing comparing to other GTA games
Pretty much doubled the next best selling I think.

Amazing table. Confirmation PS1 was the best console ever.
Yes, quantity > quality.

Shifting market. Nintendo hasn't been generating near the same number of titles for the 3DS as they usually do for handhelds (since they are trying to prop up the WiiU a... bit), and you can bet that a lack of Nintendo titles is hurting overall software sales by several millions. Etc.
One thing that I feel we're also overlooking is that the fact that the Vita is a hardware deadzone compared to its predecessor even with the 3DS performing admirably, you're still lacking several tens of millions of cross-buy sales because there's simply nothing to be had in owning two handhelds given the software disparity in count and genres between the systems. Before, when we had the PSP/DS, we had many people who would have owned two systems for the sake of getting everything with some killer titles on one system and others (+Nintendo titles) on the other. But with the Vita/3DS scenario just about every killer title is on the 3DS (+Nintendo titles) and only particular niches or derivatives are on the Vita.
Also the death of the AA market isn't helping the software numbers...

Isn't PS1 also still the biggest platform in terms of total sw sold or did NDS pass it?

Wait, but where's MK8? Doesn't that basically predict how much the Wii U sold?
Unless it wasn't there last week either so it's not indicative.
Tsutaya's Ranking doesn't include bundles.
Mario Kart 8 was on the 20 spot last week (game standalone). This week fell behind Captain Toad.
The English version of Ys Origin has sold over 200k copies on Steam.
On asked why it hasn't been released in Japan:
"Unfortunately, it just wouldn't have good sales. It might not even sell 1/100th of that, or 2k copies."

It should at least do better than Lost Dimension.

LoL seems to be on a noticeably higher level in both effort and marketing compared to Lost Dimension. It's not going to crash (that hard).
Bombing is kind of a nebulous concept without defined numbers so I decided to dig a bit.
Looking at the last thread, the four people who predicted expected about 50K for the first four days (that's weeks one and two I think or just week one?).
Mpl90: [3DS] Legend of Legacy (4 days) - 49,633
XDDX: [3DS] Legend of Legacy (4 days) - 55,000
Road: [3DS] Legend of Legacy (4 days) - 44,444
hiska-kun: [3DS] Legend of Legacy (4 days) - 56,987
I'd say compared to that... maybe 30-35K would be poor?

I'd say that PS2 figure is more impressive considering the jump in game development and yet the output almost matched the previous generation.
lol
Well 50K would be double Unchained Blades' and Exstetra's debut and tenfold Lost Dimension's debut. I think it would be over Cardfight Vanguard's debut but I'm not certain on that.
Legend of Legacy seems to be getting a bigger push but then it depends to what degree it's expected to be their best seller.

Need someone to confirm this, but... from the looks of it, the reason Capcom revised its sales forecast for FY2014-15 is because of Gaist Crusher.... geeeeeeeee, who would've known?! I, for one, am shocked.
Now changing forecast for Monster Hunter 4G though.

For Legend of Legacy, word of mouth is gonna play a big role... so FuRyu better make sure they don't ship the game with a game breaking glitch or anything.
This game got some potential... it's not gonna be a Bravely Default 2 sales-wise, but 50k LTD should be easily achieved if the game's great and get good word of mouth.

The Legend of Legacy has been positioning in the Top 5 of Amazon best-sellers since a week or so. It might not mean a lot but for a new niche IP releasing in more than one week is not too bad.
which is their best selling game so far?
Cardfight Vanguard something, with around 70k.
thank you for the update!

You know things are stale when we have been spending so much time talking about a Furyu game lol!
I'm still expecting the game to be shit, get bad word of mouth and flop (<50k ltd) btw.

I hope the opposite, because it seems a nice attempt to create a new IP in the jRPG genre which doesn't pander to the otaku audience.
I don't think anyone is actually interested in it because it's a FuRyu game. It could be any small publisher with a poor reputation and sales, rather it's the staff actually involved and that it looks pretty neat. It'll be wonderful (for the Japan console gaming market even) if it turns out to be a good game and gets good or at least good enough sales.

3) brb, gonna page BriBri
Don't put too much faith in comgnet, even within the same series (remember Etrian Odyssey Untold 2, which had more pre-orders yet got underwhelming sales). A drop isn't unexpected, but Bamco probably don't care, they have a port lined-up for the holidays (not confirmed obviously, but come on... you know it's going to happen. Pre-TGS announcement, most likely).

Legend of Legacy doesn't seem like a game that can sell well enough. A 50k LTD should be good enough for it. Of course, I'd love to be proven wrong and see it selling more than that. The game looks pretty good and the staff that is developing it is definitely talented.

It would be a shame if Zesteria sales are low and the game is good.
I think God Eater 2: Rage Burst looks pretty decent based on these numbers. Although the PS4 is painting a whole different picture. A Monster Hunter/God Eater on a console won't sell any close to a handheld release.
At this rate, it would outsell Pokemon the following week.
