Finally...Wii U is below 10K.

To be honest, I thought it would go <10K a lot sooner.

Killer is Dead....

dead on arrival?

I'm sorry but seriously all those web videos, I mean what does it for folks in Japan when it comes to console games?

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
Wii U sales are terrible of course, but given the not very significant bump it got for Pikmin 3 (20-22K), I think its holding a bit better than expected. Not that that is like healthy or anything.

Mind-0 did pretty much inline with what I expected for it.

Interesting to see that Vita's version of Dragon's Crown dropped less than PS3 version and is outselling the PS3 this week

Suda deserves those sells, am tired of playing his games and being put off by the dumb fanservices he forces into his games.

Maybe next time he want relay on marketing focusing fanservice to sell his games and try to sell them on there other merits.

Disney magic

Don't know why mario and lugi bombed but I hope it has legs.

It's over doubled it's sales over 4 weeks since Pikmin relative to the four week period before Pikmin. Not healthy, but there's a possibility of rebuilding to Vita levels.

Between the Vita and Wii U, if there is one thing this gen has shown so far, it's that at the extreme low end, software can definitely hold up a low number a bit longer than expected. :p

Mind 0 sold better than I expected it to :p I guess it did it's part in making sure that the Vita doesn't fall too far this week (or should credit for that go to Dragon's Crown?).

Most 3DS games seem to be stretching their legs. Lego City had a surprisingly lower than expected drop. Magic Castle did well.

Vita and Wii U are in the same state as they've been for a while now.

Very disappointing numbers for KiD. It's a shame since it's the first Grasshopper game that reminds me of their older stuff since Killer7. I'm really not a fan of Grasshopper's output these days.. Couldn't care less for NMH, Lolipop and the likes.

Disney game bumped more hardwares than M&L.

Which makes perfect sense, considering that people interested in a) Mario games and b) Mario themed RPGs should already own a 3DS.

Have to say I'm surprised with that Disney game.

I'm not. Disney, afaik, is very popular in Japan. So popular that there's a disney park in Japan and there's an entire crossover series with final fantasy characters and disney stuff.

I've even heard that a lot of nurseries in Japan have disney characters in them so i'd assume that a lot of Japanese people grew up with disney.

The hell is that Disney game about anyway? It came out of nowhere...

And Lego held relatively decently, I expected it to disappear from the top 30 altogether.

Oh and that drop for AA seems a bit steep...

Hopefully Pikmin picks up more sales around the Christmas. It's too damn good for Wii U hardware numbers to be holding it down.

This has got to be sharpest drop for a 100k+ opener.

Edit: In my files, since 1996 (that is only inside the Famitsu top 30):

2012-02-20 [3DS] New Love Plus (Konami) 2012-02-14 - 8,961 / 119,355 (-91.9%)
1996-03-18 [SFC] Derby Stallion '96 (ASCII Entertainment) 1996-03-15 - 33,178 / 411,174 (-91.2%)
2007-04-23 [PS2] Fate/Stay Night (Realta Nua) (Kadokawa Shoten) 2007-04-19 - 14,285 / 157,834 (-90.0%)

People go mad for Disney here...but for weird (to me) characters like Marie from the Aristocats, or Stich from Lilo & Stitch.
