Haha this actually increases WOW!
MHW had spillover effects on XX HD.
I mean, Gintama did pretty well last week and this week. But in general yeah, it seems PS4 definitely isn't the place for any smaller anime cash ins.
The incredibly niche market the prefers a couple more frames and pixels.
Nothing wrong about the anime, but that sales isn't...encouraging.
What ? If anything, it's dropping in popularity now that it's not on 3DS anymore. I don't get your post.
NSW sold more then previous week because of higher shipments, what Switch drop?
Hardcore MH and/or Xbox fans buying MHW on the most powerful console?
Yeah Gintama did okay. It'll be interesting to see how bigger properties like My Hero Academia do in the future.
Switch software did really well this week.
Interest keeps going which is good after the big holiday season.
Crazy to see so many games charting, even smaller ones like Fifa and Pokkén.

Hmm, that is 33% less than MH4 and Capcom said they shipped 5 million WW. Is there a a big difference between shipped numbers and sold numbers world wide or did it sell better WW?
Pokemon and Dragon Quest are things you know.
More importantly, let's see if MHW beats Splatoon 2 LTD.
If you mean the 50k, it's arbitrary; my musings, rather than official numbers, but it's a bit of a psychological milestone compared to previous weeks of, well, not getting 50k onto shelves each week.
The first one on PS3 did sub 100k, unless this one grows then is not big un Japan
Wow this beats my expectations for Monster Hunter PS4 by far!
I was sure it would do well, I wasn't too sure it'll beat 1m though - I thought the missing local coop would dampen it's performance in Japan far more.
This is great, let's see how it'll do in the long run - or of it's legs will also be more comparable to a typical console RPG.

Dragon Quest sold less on PS4.
But I should've stated most popular game franchise on PS4. My bad.
On top of Pokémon and Dragon Quest... Mario, Super Smash Bros. and Animal Crossing are bigger franchises right now.
You do realize that they were selling like 2-3m per year on the 3DS this generation ... Right? lol
Not too mention that MH wouldn't have been able to have this launch earlier in its life cycle and before FFXV and DQXI.
Yep, Ni no Kuni is a non-factor in Japan, the reason the sequel was greenlit was because of the very good western sales for the first one.
Hmm. But how do we know there aren't more on shelves but sales slowing for a bit until more compelling software come out?
He's talking about beating Splatoon 2.
If you follow this thread you should know we get extensive reports of the console being constantly sold out at major retailers every week.
So there was no Pro Bundle? That's odd.
It's a great debut. More than doubling Tri's lackluster launch. 2 million is a sure bet and it might even go past 2.5 if legs are good. It'll be a drop from 4, but just like 3U releasing on 3DS was a massive drop from P3rd, developing on PS4 was the only realistic choice for the franchise to bet on franchise growth. And while the real test will be WW sales, Japan definately showed up in droves, all things considered.

No? If you meant it as a joke, ok. But if you really think this might be the case, that most people bought XX unknowingly thinking this is the new game, you're way off - this is on par with how XX has been selling for a while now, maybe just a little bit higher (as in a few hundreds) but even that is more probably either statistical noise or because MH's mindshare is heightened with all the marketing.
