Good for Persona Q (this is much higher than fw for the EO series, right?), as a whole pretty bad for everything else
 
Persona Q already outsold every Etrian Odyssey game and it's amazingly close to the very best Persona openings. This worked out pretty good.
 
Wow that seems like a big drop for MK8.

WiiU already declining is obvious.

PQ had a good opening though lets see if it has the legs of P4G which iirc is at 300k now.

Persona 5 is going to wreck.

10./00. [360] Tsurugi no Machi no Ihoujin: Shiro no Oukyuu <RPG> (Experience) {2014.06.05} (¥7.344) - 5.060 / NEW

Lovely, great for a 360 game.

PersonaQ continues to seem a stronger direction for the Etrian Odyssey series. I imagine they will either notably revisit the production values on EO or keep on making PQ.

Mario Kart seems on track to do just about nothing for keeping the Wii U baseline higher.

Just reposting quickly what I thought in last thread:
That seems like a good "second" week for Mario Kart imo (not hw obviously, still hoping for a 10k baseline), wasn't it near full shipment last time?
Really great for Persona Q. Hope it makes more Persona fans on Nintendo consoles, and more Etrian Odyssey fans from Nintendo users.

Also, at the PS4 bump. Shame for Vita. Meh numbers as usual
 
Cross-posting.

Code:
		Pikmin 3		MK8
Week 1 HW	20728			19031
Week 2 HW	14024 (-32%)		12576 (-34%)
Week 3 HW	10937 (-22%)		?
Seems to be following similar curve.
Will still need to wait to see where it settles though.

Last chance to get a PSP, probably worth a penny or too for collectors eventually as well.

Good numbers for PQ, but people were making it out to be some sort of record shattering numbers, which it isn't.
 
I'm fucking howling at the sales for Wolfenstein considering when I was there it was the main ad I saw in the damn stores I went to

It's hurting my brain to see that MK was able to be number 2 while dropping 78% from the week prior. Japan is so weird.

Also it being the only Wii U game in the top 20 is :|

Come on Japan, remember the living room!

With all of this Persona promotion and seeing such amazing numbers for Persona Q and 4 Golden it will be interesting seeing how good 5 does.

Sony should be on Atlus doorstep right now paying for them to port that game to PS4 for a holiday release.

Wii U back to under 10k next week, and will get ever smaller until Hyrule Warriors in September'ish. SMH

PersonaQ continues to seem a stronger direction for the Etrian Odyssey series. I imagine they will either notably revisit the production values on EO or keep on making PQ.

Mario Kart seems on track to do just about nothing for keeping the Wii U baseline higher.

Persona Q performance is pretty funny when I think back to the reveal and people were downplaying it's possible impact since "Japan doesn't care about spinoffs".

Impressive debut.

Wii U back to under 10k next week, and will get ever smaller until Hyrule Warriors in September'ish. SMH

Hyrule Warriors is mid-August

Nice relative hold for Wii U and a smaller drop than I expected for Mario Kart 8. Not bad.

Surprised Wolfenstein bumped the PS4 up, though.

Edit: Oh, FIFA gave it a bump. Ok.

great opening for PersonaQ, and the bundles worked well for 3DS!
MK8 drop a lot but still sells very weel, and at least Wii U was able to stay over 10k, doubling lats year week ;p
Good signs for PS4? Relatively of course

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
% wise, the MK8 drop isn't that bigger than the second week drop experienced by 3D Land back in 2011, at least

02./01. [WIU] Mario Kart 8 <RCE> (Nintendo) {2014.05.29} (¥6.156) - 73.051 / 398.943 (-78%)
04./01. [3DS] Super Mario 3D Land <ACT> (Nintendo) {2011.11.03} (¥4.800) - 93.441 / 436.933 (-73%)

I hope it continues to sell well enough in the next weeks. Wii U at 13,000 level, already, though...

PQ yeah! Did not let me down! :) Let's see those legs...

Mario Kart still selling impressive. Usual drop-off, but I really hope it keeps Wii U sales afloat in an abysmal hardware market.
