Media Create Sales: Week 38, 2018 (Sep 17 - Sep 23)

Is World of Final Fantasy Maxima not getting a retail release in Japan? I haven't seen pre orders open on amazon.

Clov · Sep 27, 2018

I'm surprised that Torna is that low. I guess most of the people who got it just got it through the Expansion Pass.

The Japanese price is set at 5,800 Yen + taxes for all SKUs, and the Expansion pack for PS4 and Steam is at 3,400 Yen, so I doubt it's digital-only. Weird that preorders haven't started yet though, true.

This is the official website btw. If anyone can help with translations of specific parts that could help understanding whether it's physical or not, it'd be great :D

I always viewed npd numbers as kind of a joke since they are so infrequent and don't actually report sales but instead some earnings value that is completely coiffed by the publisher?

I'm sure if they were to give numbers to Japanese analytics groups they would want some sort of control over the messaging, and that deal probably isn't good for Media Create and Enterbrain.

NPD does report unit sales, but as MatPiscatella mentions, units don't track trends. And they put out rankings by revenue, what games are making the most money at retail

What do you mean with infrequent? That its only once a month?

probably meant real, solid sales figures, not just rankings and chart %s

I see. Like ILikeFeet mentioned, NPD does track unit sales as well. I think they just report on earnings because they feel that its more representable (like some game might be on sale for $20, while another might be $60, or even $80+ for limited editions etc.).

ILikeFeet · Sep 27, 2018

Tracking revenue avoids issues like "bayonetta sold 1M units! Why was the sequel canceled?"

I do think revenue is far more useful. Not only accounts for discounts but could even track things like dlc

NPD tracks everything still. It's just that they no longer report unit sales publicly. If a company pays the boatload of money for the reports (apart from leaks), all that info seems to be in there.

Well then, that explains the lack of preorders.
Thanks konoka.

Sorry, I worded it poorly, I meant that they don't make that info public.

test_account said:

Yeah, once a month is not frequent enough. I am sure they have much more granular data, but if that data is not readily available, then it is useless.

I prefer the way the Japanese analytics companies do it, and while it is unfortunate that they do not have access to digital sales, I am sure there is a good reason they don't want to make whatever concession to the publishers to get that information.

NPD comes from retailers as sell-through. Much like Japanese analysis data

Good points.

I must admit that i do find it more interesting to know the units rather than revenue.

I understand. I agree that weekly data is better, but i dont think monthly data is really that much worse either. Only downside to that is the longer wait :) And i agree that units is more interesting than revenue.

Aleh · Sep 27, 2018

Why are people surprised by Torna? It's not actually a "bad" performance considering the physical version probably makes up a super small portion of people since the majority would have it with the DLC already. I actually guess it's mostly double dippers who wanted the cartridge for collection.

I assume so through deals with publishers (probably in exchange for other data)

[NSW] Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 for Nintendo Switch - 19pt
[PS4] Dragon Ball FighterZ - 51pt
[NSW] Dragon Ball FighterZ - 18pt

Note: in the past few years, the ratio between preorder points and thousands of units sold have costantly decreased, and the past few months saw several examples of a much lower ratio than usual for several games (i.e. more actual thousands sold per preorder point), considering their platforms and genres (The Last Guardian, Poochy and Yoshi's Wolly World, Nioh, Final Fantasy XV as the first major examples).

* the original Attack on Titan from KT displayed a very high actual sales / final COMG preorder pts ratio: the Vita version ended with 30pts (regular version), the PS4 one with 24pts (regular version) at best, buth both SKUs debuted at over 60,000 copies in their first week. This might've happened due to advertising impacting on-the-spot purchases; there is no certainty we're going to see a similar phenomenon with AoT2, which means we could see a lower purchases / preorders ratio.

Note: Super Mario Party's comparison will be added later.

it bombed hard everywhere and it's a nintendo fault since they don't know how to promote in the right way things that are not Mario or Zelda games. Torna trailer reveal on youtube has 180k views, I feel bad atm, monolith deserve better.

also, famitsu shared the % and it's <20-40>

It's been advertised as downloadable dlc since day one of the game. The news of a physical version didn't come until many people already bought the DLC.

Of course getting both would be the best. Size of base and enthusiasm of base.

How are preorders of Smash and Let's Go going?

DrWong · Sep 27, 2018

At least, in Japan, ranking by units comes with numbers. NPD doesn't share revenues numbers, just ranking and some nebulous % (per super genre and so on), so it's way less useful.

I was thinking more about what we get now, where the japanese chart only accounts for units, and NPD doesnt give unit sales. I prefer unit sales between those two. Or did you just mean it as a general statement. But yeah, getting both would of course be the best indeed :)

I don't see how you can spin a JRPG selling 20-40% first week positively. It bombed at retail.

Because it was DLC first. Like I didn't buy it since I had the Season Pass, which I got after E3. I imagined most did the same if they were on the fence like me.

Is Torna the first stand-alone DLC sold separately and physically ? Do we have any kind of past sales to help us grasp whether this result was good or bad ? Do Torna's sales even matter ?

Oh yeah, I thought so. But I meant do they matter for us, in this thread ? This is the first time we've seen this kind of product, is there going to be any kind of follow-up ? Torna sales aren't the most interesting thing ever, they are a DLC, of a JRPG, releasing 9 month after the initial game.

20-40% for a game that costs only 3.980¥ it's not bad. Price won't go down quickly as fully priced games, sales trend will probably be different too.

It's been said multiple times for years but a "bomb" means that a game ends up in a bomba bin with retailers forced to drop its price.
Torna has a super low shipment and low price, for all we know it could have had a 13k shipment and will clear that no problem.
Now if it's 23k it's more problematic but the number is low enough that its chances of hitting bomba bins is very low, bomba bins really happen with massively overshipped games like Gaist Crusher, or games left with dozens/hundred'(s) thousands of unsold copies like Tales of Xillia.
Torna is none of those thus far and has a budget price that will help its legs

[NSW] Super Mario Party - 31pt

Note: in the past few years, the ratio between preorder points and thousands of units sold have costantly decreased, and the past few months saw several examples of a much lower ratio than usual for several games (i.e. more actual thousands sold per preorder point), considering their platforms and genres (The Last Guardian, Poochy and Yoshi's Wolly World, Nioh, Final Fantasy XV as the first major examples).

* the original Attack on Titan from KT displayed a very high actual sales / final COMG preorder pts ratio: the Vita version ended with 30pts (regular version), the PS4 one with 24pts (regular version) at best, buth both SKUs debuted at over 60,000 copies in their first week. This might've happened due to advertising impacting on-the-spot purchases; there is no certainty we're going to see a similar phenomenon with AoT2, which means we could see a lower purchases / preorders ratio.

Updated with Mario Party's comparison

20-40% is bad unless it's a one time shipment sort of thing.
Not sure if Nintendo promoted it well over there, was kind of hoping that the standalone nature and more refined experience would sell some units but it'll probably barely do 20k by year's end

Expected sell-through ratios. Looks like Bamco and retailers learned their lesson after the Xenoverse 2 stock fiasco and prepared enough copies this time around.

Is Torna the first stand-alone DLC sold separately and physically ? Do we have any kind of past sales to help us grasp whether this result was good or bad ? Do Torna's sales even matter ?

Torna is NOT a dlc. it's a prequel, a standalone game with different mechanics and a new world, like uncharted lost legacy. and that's the fault, they promote it as a dlc

Its a expansion which is otherwise a very meaty DLC, enough that Nintendo could sell it as a physical game but still DLC nonetheless
