When was the last time Tales even hit a million?
I thought Zestiria did worldwide?
Xillia seemed to (although the original source is gone):

So Inazuma Eleven Ares on either Switch/PS4 or both? Time to have another page long discussion on the probability of the outcomes and what Level 5 should really do if they want to not become the next Capcom!
That's sales per release but it's overestimating Tales quite a bit. Only a handful of games have hit a million.
Berseria likely won't and I doubt the next one will either.
When was the last time Tales even hit a million?
Thought the series made its way to the wii?What I'm wondering is how Inazuma Eleven is supposed to be played without a dual screen.

A mix of Inazuma Eleven on Wii + PES for tactical positioning and assisting through the JoyCons / touch screen if it's on Switch?
I doubt we'll get another big Naruto game now that Boruto is the focus in terms of both anime and manga.UNS4 was the last Ultimate Ninja Storm game.....not the last Naruto game. I'm hoping they go with DBX route. Boruto series won't be any near as popular as Naruto.
RE7 shipped 3 million in a bit over a month and is on track to meet the 4 million shipment by March. Thats on par with RE6, the best selling RE title at this point.
People always talk about SFV as if it was some massive project that was going to make or break Capcom. It never was. At least the game is a hit with the FGC.
I support Capcom now since I feel there is quality there.
To compare it with Minecraft we can only use the faulty Famitsu estimates, but this'd mean that Cube Creator has sold on par with the PS3 & PSV versions of Minecraft.Cube Creator 3D has been downloaded over 370,000 times on the Japanese 3DS eShop. Be interesting to see how DX performs at retail.
*does testfire*
*looks at all the Japanese in the middle of the night for Japan*
*is killed by said Japanese over and over*
Ya, okay.
I thought I was talking to myself until you chimed in;-) It really is one of the biggest successes of this generation. I guess break even with DX is minimal so even if it sells just 50,000 it will equal big money.Ōkami;232691359 said:To compare it with Minecraft we can only use the faulty Famitsu estimates, but this'd mean that Cube Creator has sold on par with the PS3 & PSV versions of Minecraft.
I thought you all were talking about series to date sales, my bad.
Worldwide? Xillia did in 2013.
And it's possible Zestiria did as well. It did 350k so far on Steam alone, not sure about in Japan and western console sales.
Speaking of Cube Creator 3D DX, I'm surprised that this wasn't a Switch cross-gen title when ASW brought over Othello and New Frontier Days to it at launch, both being ports/remakes of earlier eShop games. You'd think with the original on 3DS doing as well as it did, they would take advantage of having the Minecraft market all to themselves, and at retail since it is so on 3DS this time.
Is it developed by ASW?
The download version was just localised by them. It's an indie game originally.

And in a combo of both business success and personal pride, Nintendo invited Big John Games and its Japan region publishing partner, Arc System Works, to a meeting to discuss upcoming projects and partnerships. Big John Games may even have early access to Nintendo's upcoming home console, the clandestine Nintendo NX, which would allow the company to create a "Cube Creator" type of game for that platform, as well.
"In the meantime, Arc and us decided we would make another 3DS game while we wait for NX access," Patterson said.
Yeah, I believe ASW took on this one themselves since it did so well on 3DS in Japan. Big John is only the IP holder (and supervisor maybe?). I could be wrong though.
Not to mention that the graphics don't even need to be enhanced, literally 1080p and 60fps (and of course draw-distance increase) and you're good really. It's a Minecraft clone.![]()
It is being develoepd by ASW, that version specifically.
Basically, they seem to have figured out just the base game at retail wouldn't really fly, so they went and developed plenty of extra content to justify the minimum price of a retail release.
Big John Games are working on something else at the moment, though I forgot what it was. But they did mention they chose to go with a new 3DS game first, and that they didn't want to jump straight to NX (well, it was called that back then).
I'll find the link to the interview and post it here.

As promised several hours ago, here's a corrected version of the second criteria of comparison between consoles in their year-one on the market. Before that, a recap of other parts of this ongoing feature
1) Announcements made by Japanese publishers / developers since the console's unveiling up to the launch
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=232371157&postcount=640
3) How Japanese games released in console's first year sold in their first year* (Media Create/ MC + Famitsu for Switch due to more titles tracked up to now)
http://neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=232681377&postcount=642
And this is the revised version of the criteria based on mere first year's releases, now including totals for each console.
2) Releases by Japanese publishers / developers from the launch to the console's first Holiday (in case of an Holiday release, the subsequent one)
Nintendo 3DS
PlayStation Vita
Wii U
PlayStation 4
Nintendo Switch
Totals
Nintendo 3DS - 63 Japanese third party games released
PlayStation Vita - 65
Wii U - 16
PlayStation 4 - 20
Nintendo Switch - 14*
* on-going amount / going by release periods at the time of the edit.
I won one match and lost the second one. I honestly thought we were going to win the second one but we lost by .1% because NO ONE ON MY TEAM was covering the ground and they were camping the enemies instead, at the end I was the only one running around covering empty spots and if they just helped ONE bit we would have won. Lol.
All Japanese players here too. It's like 5am in Japan now, wtf!
Gamesmaya says Double Cross shows good sales after opening weekend.
Many retailers restocked Switch, we should see a sizable bump.
Also, since Monday was a national holiday, second week drop for MHXX might be lower than other games.
Still, 2 millions won't ever happen.
Other leggy games might increase this week as well.
Will Minecraft be back?
With 1,2 initial shipment for Double Cross and less than 80% sell-through it will be be lucky to have an additional shipment bigger than 100-150k at second week.
Something like 1,4-1,5m will be the shipment for FY.
I don't even think it will get any additional shipment here. They will be lucky to sell all the initial shipment without the need to fall into Bomba Bin.

Nothing new since I posted this:

Basically, all stores in Japan are supposed to recieve a new shipment this weekend. The number is still insufficient, but this time the number stores is bigger.
The past weeks just Bic Camera and a few more recieved shipments.
