Media Create Sales: Week 11, 2015 (Mar 09 - Mar 15)

 

[SPAW]

That is more than I expected, for both PS4 and type-0.

 

[1st Course]

type 0 did great

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Nice numbers for the PS4, still.

And I'm surprised by those Battlefield Hardline PS4 numbers.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Mario Vs. Bomba Kong

 

[Derpyduck]

Pre-Bloodborne bounce.

 

[Flarin]

Was Type-0 a PS4 exclusive in Japan? Pretty great sales for both the game and system. Nicely done.

 

[crinale]

Minecraft? Wow never knew physical version didn't exist until last week o_o

 

[1st Course]

and yeah PS4 #1 again

 

[Neifirst]

I really hope this PS4 momentum continues. With the arrival of Final Fantasy Type-0 HD and Bloodborne these past two weeks, my launch day purchase of the system finally feels justified. More Japanese developed games, stat!

 

[Sakura]

Higher than I expected for Type-0.
Not a bad month for PS4 at all in Japan. Probably will have sold 120~k+ this month right? Would be like 300k in a month for the US.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Was Type-0 a PS4 exclusive in Japan? Pretty great sales for both the game and system. Nicely done.

It was released for the Xbox One as well.

 

[The Last One]

These battlefield numbers made wonder... How's Star Wars popularity in Japan? Maybe Battlefront will do nicely over there.

 

[Takao]

Was Type-0 a PS4 exclusive in Japan? Pretty great sales for both the game and system. Nicely done.

For Type-0 HD on XB1 to have charted it would need an attach rate a bit higher than 10%.

 

[duckroll]

Final Fantasy outsold by Resident Evil and Battlefield? RIP.

 

[maquiladora]

PS4 starting to gain momentum in Japan.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Seems like Mario vs Bomba Kong

 

[Javin98]

Wow, PS4 continues to do well in Japan. The sales this week should increase with the release of Bloodborne. 50K for this week sounds good.

 

[Nibel]

Hm, are those Yakuza Zero numbers good? They seem kinda low..

 

[u_neek]

It was released for the Xbox One as well.

The one Japanese guy that owns one might not have bought it though.

Great PS4 and Type-0 numbers!

 

[Ratrat]

These battlefield numbers made wonder... How's Star Wars popularity in Japan? Maybe Battlefront will do nicely over there.

The movies doing well won't necessarily translate to game sales.

 

[ohyouagain]

Mario vs Donkey Kong got no love this time.

Not at all even.

 

[BadWolf]

PS4 doing well, good stuff.

 

[Loris146]

Return of the King.

Spoiler

jk. Still good number for PS4 anyway.

 

[noobie]

Yakuza not holding well. Dragon Quest will reach 800k with ease and possibly > 900k when all is said and done.

 

[Flarin]

Final Fantasy outsold by Resident Evil and Battlefield? RIP.

? Isn't Final Fantasy more popular than both of those series in Japan?

Edit: Nevermind I misread what you said.

 

[yon61]

I was quite pessimistic about the PS4 not even being able to topple the Wii U, at least not for a few years, but it's well on its way to doing that.

 

[Graphics Horse]

I see combined handhelds are being outsold by combined consoles.

As expected, the physical version of Resident Evil Revelations 2 has performed much better in Japan than in the West.

It had a very weak opening in the UK and it didn't do much better in Germany (PS4 6th, PS3 14th, XBO 30th, 360 48th)

PS4 starting to gain momentum in Japan.

This statement was applicable about a month ago. After next week it's going to start falling back. Maybe not to the lows it was before, but I wouldn't expect great things come May or June.

When was the last time that Sony got the top 8 spots of the chart? Must be in the PS2 era or something.

 

[Aostia]

very good numbers for PS4, I knew it would have start to be on fire with the Japanese games released. I was anticipating 3DS-like numbers and it was even able to outsell it for three weeks (if I'm not wrong). Good debut too for Type0 imho.
This is also the first bad week for the 3DS in terms of YoY, imho.

Xbox am cry.

 

[hiska-kun]

Yakuza sales are a joke, right?

 

[JadedWriter]

PS4 on top 2 weeks in a row in Japan! Has the master finally be awakened?

 

[SPAW]

Final Fantasy outsold by Resident Evil and Battlefield? RIP.

in what world?

ah, combined.

The king stays strong

 

[IAmRandom31]

So DQ Heroes will be around 350k for the PS4 and around 900k-1m overall? Not bad.

I think the western release will do better then some think.

A spin-off Battlefield sells more than a spin-off Resident Evil on PS4 in Japan, lol.

Final Fantasy outsold by Resident Evil and Battlefield? RIP.

But it wasn't...

I wonder if PS4 numbers will be higher or lower in next week's charts with the massive amount of games being released for the system this week (Bloodborne, D5, One Piece 3, Senran Kagura).

 

[Mpl90]

Good PS4, but I really wonder what's going to happen in the next month. I mean, unfortunately PS4 is going to have a loong drought, with few releases. They concentrated way too many games in February and March, and while this helped PS4 getting good numbers and I'm confident in saying the baseline sales will be higher than the past from now on, I fear the increase in the baseline could be...not that much, with the future releases.

 

[koutoru]

I wonder how this will effect Square Enix's future outlook for XB1 games in Japan.

 

[Eolz]

Ouch for the 3DS!
Part of the Vita hold might be due to Minecraft (has there been any bundle?), but really good numbers for the PS4 this week. FFT0 doing about 15k more than what I expected, and Battlefield doing well as well.

I was right after all, the game debuted in the Top 10.

 

[jett]

Playstation domination.

And I guess the FFXV demo didn't really interest people in buying Type 0 all that much.

 

[Trust me. I'm a PhD]

Final Fantasy outsold by Resident Evil and Battlefield? RIP.

?!? Am I reading the chart wrong? It looks like both trackers having Type 0 on the top spot? Or do you mean all SKUs combined?

Combined sales, of course.
