wait what? what trigger this comment when, we don't even see MHW on the chart?O_O
so, its 24th in Japan, Capcom little "Experiment" should be going live, is any tracker able to see how many people actually used the RE:7 Cloud or we will be waiting for 3 months till Capcom gives an official statement?
Personally, a 30-35k debut with baby-stepping legs for a few weeks.
In three months it will porbably be end of service statement.
Depends on the promotion/marketing, and whether a demo drops.
He did say he is ''still in awe'' so it's probably a very prolonged awe.

I've been absent from MC threads and just saw both NSW and PS4 YTD, figured MHW was the only explanation for the huge PS4 number, so yeah sorry for the random comment I guess? lol.
If the good word of mouth it is getting from previews carries over to a larger audience, I can see it doing even a little better than that. At any rate, Sushi Striker would really benefit from a demo, I wonder if that's coming.
iirc you do need to download like the launching app on Switch, so, maybe we can get something from there?
I doubt it. It's a really story-heavy game when I was at PAX East. The Nintendo reps had to tell us to skip large amounts of story plots (cutscenes mostly I think, I can't tell) just to get to the stages where we can actually try out the gameplay.
More than sales I'm more interested to see how RE7 will perform technically on Switch—it might be a new business model for bringing games on Switch if the game runs well.
Unless was a free service, the game should appear on the E shop ranking.
No tracker will have any data to share (not even Famitsu), because there will be no data to begin with. Only Capcom will know how many people bought a pass, and you can be sure they're not going to mention this ever again until comes the time to discontinue the whole thing.
At best we'll have download rankings on the eShop, but considering the client is free to download, that wouldn't tell us much.
Wow, doesn't this break the concept of what the Switch is supposed to be though?
It's being targeted towards families who already own a Switch, and therefor a dock.
I think people got the message about what the Switch is right now and Nintendo can experiment with these options, especially if it's just a My Nintendo Store exclusive thing.
Look at 1,2 Switch! Yes, of course it was a launch game, but nobody expected that kind of game to sell as well as it did.
I think Sushi Striker will get to 100k LTD, it was featured in several directs and seems to be quite meaty in content.
With a free 15 min demo mode, the client hitting #1 should be pretty easy. After that though, there'll nothing to help us out
Ah, I see. But it can still be bought by anyone, whether they have a Switch or not, right?
Next week is also Detroit : Become Human, curious to see how it will compare to Heavy Rain (26.058 launch week, 39.551 LTD) and Beyond : Two Souls (22.911 launch week, 41.996 LTD).
Japanese dub, mochiron.

Still niche though.^_^ At least with this, we know that Xeno 2 finally is able to break into the heart of Jp fans there. As it is highly loved vs the older Xeno title.
That's a good baseline for PS4 post holiday. Towards the end of the gen is when Japanese devs really shine. I'm expecting at least one more Tales game. Maybe a surprise Dragon Quest game and another action RE main line. Hopefully From Software, Platinum and CyberConnect 2 have something in the pipeline too. They've been keeping themselves busy with contract work, remasters and ports.
With the already announced games it'll let PS4 shine one more time.

It would be a pacman if you counted 3dsNo Pac-man
Nintendo: 67%
Sony: 32,6%
Microsoft: 0,3%

Pokemon is coming this year and Switch Portable only isn't. It's not unlikely there will be a full retail release, limited or not, in time for its launch.
Makes sense for it to be down YoY in US with the 900k it sold in March. But no doubt it'll catch up and surpass last year's numbers.
Since it lacks an AC adapter and a joy con grip, you're probably still better off buying a MSRP Switch
Preorder-wise is nowhere to be seen so I'd not be so sure. Maybe it will surprise but it'll likely end up similarly to Ever Oasis than 1,2... Switch.
Below 20k is a good baseline?
Yeah, rumours of its demise are greatly exaggerated. Its start wasn't too awe-inspiring, but it is showing some semblance of legs (in UK, too, where it rose in the charts last week compared to the week before). We will have to wait and see on the long term how it will end up performing: by the end of the year we should be in a position to determine how big it will be imo.
