I saw a video where a modder disabled the toon shader and it looks like a 1:1 port of the Future Tone... With the obvious caveat of less content.
Give them credit though, they crammed as much as they could into a 16GB cart. They'd have had to use a 32GB cart to put in all the songs from FT. Granted they could've just made the extra songs free to download but still. Hoping Sega does just that in the west.

Why do that when you take the most popular songs and make them part of a paid season pass?

That would work if they had set the proper price.

That's not weird, it dropped fairly quickly for a game fully sold out at retail. Now that new units have reached retailers, it's no wonder it's gone completely.
So folks were holding out for new retail copies after all? Would explain why it got a 3% bump over last week in Famitsu.

Would you know if the game has a healthy amount of stock now at retail?

Looks like Compile Heart dropped Sony/Forwardworks for their Tezuka girls game

www.gematsu.com

Eshigami no Kizuna launches this spring in Japan, changes publisher from ForwardWorks to Rudel

Eshigami no Kizuna will launch for iOS and Android this spring in Japan, but is no longer published by Sony Interactive Entertainment subsidiary ForwardWorks, developer Compile Heart announced. It …
Smart decision honestly given Fowardwork's work on Disgaea.

If Nintendo shares digital sales like Pokemon, next week we might look at one of the biggest openings ever in Japan.

What are the current biggest openings of all time? I'm pretty sure Pokémon Black/White and I think Final Fantasy X are among the top 5?

[NDS] Pokémon Black/White - 2.637.285
[PS1] Final Fantasy VIII - 2.504.044
[NDS] Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies - 2.343.440
[PS2] Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King - 2.236.881
[PSP] Monster Hunter Portable 3rd - 2.146.467
[3DS] Pokémon X/Y - 2.096.050
[PS1] Final Fantasy VII - 2.034.879
[NSW] Pokémon Sword/Shield - over 2m

Monster Hunter World and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate should be pretty close to 2m too with digital, especially World because of lack of supply.
Also if you combine PS4 and 3DS versions for DQXI you get 2.080.806 without digital.
Final Fantasy X's opening was 1.749.737.

If Animal Crossing opens close to 2.5m then 6m+ LTD sounds like a guarentee.

That would be a mindblowing performance.

No fear from a part of the Japanese public to show up to the mall in droves to buy Anicro? I feel it would be particularly impressive for the game to have one of the biggest launches in history considering it feels like the world is ending.

I saw that Pokemon Go is slowing starting to do events again in Japan so the situation might be improving ?

Maybe hiska-kun or Chris1964 can tell us more about the situation in Japan regarding the virus ?

Look at that rainbow 6 siege year 5 pass. Many years after release it looks to be still bringing in great revenue.

Question. It's been a LONG time since I updated my Switch game data collection. Would folks be interested in seeing me bring it back?

Here it is for reference. I got in trouble for self-promoting back in early 2018(?), but I was posting it EVERY week and it was more of an "as an example", so maybe I can do it again on some occasions. Please tell me (without a warning penalty this time please!) if that's still not acceptable.

The last WP had its biggest debut on PS4 last time round, and Switch helped its total first week to almost match the combined first week of the 2018 release. Not bad going. Three lots of first week growth on Switch, as well, so perhaps this year's release will gain further traction.

a couple of new screens of Yokai Academy from the website. the art direction is interest, to say the least. makes me think this was intended for mobile at some point. of course a monetization scheme would have to follow and maybe the remnants of such are or aren't here

It just looks like the first few Yokai Watch games. Doubt this was ever intended for mobile.

those were on small screen systems though. my point is I'm wondering who they're targeting with this art direction and trying to figure out what their intended consequence of this particular style for a console game is. I might be overthinking it but I just get the feeling there was some kind of change somewhere and the art style stuck

The overhead viewpoint and focus on "Academy City" and social aspects in the new Yokai Watch games are giving me Animal Crossing vibes. Or maybe more like that Konami clone series on DS/3DS, Magician's Quest.

40./52. [PS4] ARK: Survival Evolved (Spike Chunsoft) {2017.10.26} - 1,250 / 179,830

Didn't realise ark was so big in japan. I'd imagine digital sales are impressive too.

I think this is merely the consequence of decreasing sales. Going all out with Yokai Watch 4 didn't work out for them, so they're now adjusting scale and budget accordingly to find success with a more managable and cheaper project.

(Probably not so) Hot Take: Yokai Watch 4 was clearly designed with the PS4 in mind and they seemed to struggle to get it working on Switch.

The time has come for Level 5 to adjust the budget of games according to expectations that reflect reality.
