Never knew Samurai Warriors 3 was a Nintendo-Koei partnership thing. So is the SW3Z a betrayalton?

Exclusive mode for the Wii or something.

This must be the first fall conference that has so many "leaks".

 

[test_account]

I wonder if MH Tri G is exclusive to 3DS. If it is, then i guess maybe MHP3G, or MHP4 will be exclusive to PSP/PS Vita.

 

[Alrus]

This must be the first fall conference that has so many "leaks".

Can we consider it a leak if it's in Famitsu a week before? Nintendo must have agreed to this being published for some reason?

This must be the first fall conference that has so many "leaks".

I believe it was a case of higher ups telling stuff and the marketing staff going: "Buhahahaahah let's make fun of these stupid gamers by posting these rumors hahaha oh our boss is so funny!"

and then it turned out to be true.

Why wouldnt be exclusive to 3DS ? They just announced the game for 3DS only.

Well Tri remained exclusive to the Wii, but monsters did show up in MHP3. So I imagine it'll be the same for Tri G on 3DS.

Edit: I also think that the performance of Tri G is going to have a lot to say in whether MH4/MHP4/Whatever ends up multiplatform or not.

To expand the market and potentially make more money. PS Vita is more than capable hardware wise to run it, so that shouldnt be a hurdle at least. Lost Planet 2 was first only announced for the Xbox 360, but some weeks later it was mentioned for the PS3 as well. This is uncommon though, so i'm not exactly thinking this will happen with Tri G as well. But i wonder if they will go the multiplatform route or go the exclusive route.

That could be. If Nintendo has something to do with Tri G like they did with Tri on Wii, then it will most likely stay exclusive indeed.

Inazuma Eleven 3DS - 15th Dec

http://www.inazuma.jp/go/

Yep, 3DS hardware sales are going to be massive this December

What Inazuma 11 Go already this year in Japan?
Now a Pokemon Grey announcement at the conference and ...

 

[test_account]

Pokemon might be announced now, but it wont be released this year.

So...maybe 20k for Devil Survivor? What a striking success. Or something.

 

[gkryhewy]

I really think they might launch a 3DS revision with MH, to coincide with the cradle. Anything else is a half-measure.

[saichi]

with Inazuma Eleven 3DS slot for Dec too, wouldn't the schedule for 3DS too crowded for Nov-Dec frame?

With MK7 and MH Tri-G on the same platform, it got to be affecting the sales of other games even if it's the holiday season.

One's a car racing game for everyone. One's an action RPG for teens/adults. One is RPG for kids/teens. No conflict?

 

[enishi]

I wonder Sony is fast enough to launch Vita in November. It could be a nightmare to launch your new machine against Mario Mart, Monster Hunter and Inazuma 11...

 

[electroplankton]

Overclocked seems to have not performed so well..

The problem is: Can Nintendo produce enough 3DS?

3DS doing good.

 

[Kagari]

3DS and PS3 somewhat holding for now. MHP3rdHD 340,62 LTD

 

[Erethian]

Good hold for 3DS with no new games.

*checks*

Well... almost no new games.

 

[Rolf NB]

PS2 1,394
Xbox 360 1,228

The gap is widening!

 

[electroplankton]

Great numbers for 3DS, totally unexpected without important games.
Hoping more for Overclocked anyway (30-35k).

Grand Knight History performed really well, obviously a jRPG has more appeal than a game like Muramasa.

 

[Grimmy]

Talk about milking... There are 3 MonHun-related titles in the top 20 this week.

 

[Mpl90]

3DS continue to stay attached to the top.

 

[saichi]

One's a car racing game for everyone. One's an action RPG for teens/adults. One is RPG for kids/teens. No conflict?

let's see...

The kart racing game for everyone would eat into the kids/teen market of the RPG for kids/teens.

The action RPG for teens/adults would eat into the teens market of the RPG for kids/teens.

That's not to mention both the kart racing game and the action RPG game are from the more popular franchises and the RPG for kids/teens is from the franchise in decline.

It would be especially brutal if the release date for the RPG for kids/teens is sandwitched between the other two.

EDIT: Just saw this week's number. MH3rd HD had a big drop. Wonder if it's gonna make it to 500K especially if Monster Hunter 3rd HD is announced as launch game for Vita.

 

[Sennorin]

Huh, so 3DS only 6k units lower than last week? That´s impressive. Well, unlike next week where 3DS will dip below 10k when people get to know about the upcoming revision...

 

[Erethian]

I'm thinking 2k, myself.

No, dude. No. The three games are going to sell just like they would if the others didn't exist. Hell, they will probably help each other by increasing the installed base.

There are at least 4 huge PS3/360 releases in November (in US/EU), and no one is arguing that they will hurt each other's sales.

I must've missed something. Did Nintendo announce a revision?

 

[enishi]

Or start picking up stream due to new Monster Hunter announced......

 

[Jaded Alyx]

I must've missed something. Did Nintendo announce a revision?

Nope.

 

[Mpl90]

Or start picking up stream due to new Monster Hunter announced......

Yeah, because people in Japan have secret time machines and already knew about an announcement leaked today

 

[Brazil]

Nope.

Oh yeah. Just as I imagined. People are just being stupid again.

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

Nice hold for 3DS. Let's hope it can maintain a solid 40-50k until Easter starts in October.

lol @ Overclocked. Atlus should've just made DS2 a 3DS game, it might've performed better long term that way.

 

[slaughterking]

Oh yeah. Just as I imagined. People are just being stupid again.

But the attachment is certainly something that will irritate some people. I wont make any assumptions on how it may affect hardware sales in the coming weeks, but it's possible the hardware will drop faster than it would without this announcement.

 

[Yeshua]

lol @ Overclocked. Atlus should've just made DS2 a 3DS game, it might've performed better long term that way.

Nope they just need to make DS2 Overlocked for 3DS with 3D menu.

Why would an optional accessory for Monster Hunter irritate people that aren't typical overreacting Gaffers?

Maybe if they're crazy and don't want anyone to experience Monster Hunter with a second analog on the 3DS...
