Media Create Sales: Week 40, 2019 (Sep 30 - Oct 06)

 

[Lite_Agent]

Pretty alright drop for Switch, imo. Disney is off to a good start, but holiday season is when this game will truly shine, if it doesn't just disappear in the void in the next few weeks.

YW1 did alright for what it is, certainly wasn't expecting much more.

 

[hiska-kun]

Big drops. The typhoon had an effect.

 

[mrmickfran]

It's crazy just how fast Yokai watch just died

 

[WestEgg]

Looks like at least the Lite continues to seem purely additive to the main system.

 

[Deleted member 37917]

As expected, the original model will vastly outsell the lite model overall, except during holidays maybe.

 

[Ehoavash]

Heh regular switch still kicking the Lites Ass.

 

[Kouriozan]

Level 5 tried again, but it's time to let go of Yokai Watch, they effectively managed to kill any interest in this IP.
Oh, I guess there is still that PS4 release coming, huh.

 

[MegaXZero]

Bad week because of the storm. Not much to look at.

 

[MysticGon]

Big drops. The typhoon had an effect.

Click to shrink...

One twon punch of typhoon and taxes.

Stellar result from Switch despite it all.

 

[MANUELF]

The holidays are coming....
Didnt expect that good of a debut for the Tsun game so call me impressed

 

[Kanann]

Stay safe, Japan. Only thing that should doom there is Nintendoom.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Solid SW sales considering what the country as going through last week.

Heh regular switch still kicking the Lites Ass.

Ring Fit Adventure upcoming also Holiday season is the time for all the familiy/party games being promoted.
If possible most families gonna go for the standard Switch as the first purchase.

500K is a lock for DQXI S, no?

I mean considering that they charged full price for what is more or less a HD port of a old-ass 3DS game with multiple sequels....probably quite good for them considering what they make on mobile with these kind of releases.

 

[dean_rcg]

500K is a lock for DQXI S, no?

Click to shrink...

Looks like, with an Xmas boost it could go much higher imo

 

[schuelma]

Disney Tsum Tsum should be able to leg it out to 100K given the audience for that title. Unless it just absolutely craters in the next few weeks.

 

[Wander_]

bad week overall.

 

[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]

Wasn't expecting lite to sell 17k a week this year... How bad was the weather in Japan last week? even the Pokemon centers were closed bad?

 

[Ryng™]

This week stink

 

[DarkDetective]

Pretty good week imo, when you take the typhoon sales loss into consideration.

Disney Tsum Tsum at 30k is a good start. November and December should be big for this game.

Sub-10k for Youkai Watch as expected.......

 

[Comic Obsessed]

Yo-kai Watch is dead.

Good to see that DQXIS has some legs.

Still, kinda average week.

 

[oracion]

 

[Camwi]

 

[Deleted member 32018]

Click to shrink...

It was the worst storm in 60 years. It would have had an affect on numbers this week for sure.

 

[catashtrophe]

2 years ago i thought the PS4 would sail past the PS3 LTD with ease and maybe hit 11 mill LTD if not a bit more but looking at those numbers and PS4 might not hit the PS3 LTD which was around 10 mill from what i remember

 

[Deleted member 31092]

I expected worse considering the period and the typhoon honestly.

Rough week given the typhoon, although Switch being up YoY is a silver lining

 

[Chris1964]

Considering weekend sales took a big hit and it's the period kids and families mostly shop, Tsum Tsum did well.

 

[Blade24070]

Ni no kuni flopped. YK1 flopped. YK4 re-release and PS4 port will flop.

 

[K Samedi]

Disney Tsum Tsum should be able to leg it out to 100K given the audience for that title. Unless it just absolutely craters in the next few weeks.

Seems like a game that will leg it to significantly higher numbers than that.

100K should be a lock with holiday coming up.

Wasn't expecting lite to sell 17k a week this year... How bad was the weather in Japan last week? even the Pokemon centers were closed bad?

This is very insensitive considering what happened in Japan.

as will the new inazuma eleven

2 years ago i thought the PS4 would sail past the PS3 LTD with ease and maybe hit 11 mill LTD if not a bit more but looking at those numbers and PS4 might not hit the PS3 LTD which was around 10 mill from what i remember

Pretty much 10.5 Million (I think just shy of this) for PS3 LTD.

Probably. Only caution I have is FW numbers have a hardware bundle which could impact things a bit next few weeks as far as legs go.

 

[z0m3le]

It's going to be a very interesting holiday for the Switch this year.

Typhoon during the weekend with a death toll of (so far) 74 - you might want to revise your post, the joke part really doesn't sound good given the circumstances.

 

[hiska-kun]

I expected worse considering the period and the typhoon honestly.

Click to shrink...

Well, west Japan and Hokkaido were okay. It was just east Japan who suffered the typhoon.
The rest of the country could buy and make normal life.

 

[PortisheadBiscuit]

Ouch, but understandable

 

[PaulGaleNetwork]

Stay safe, Japan. That typhoon was tough. Good to see folks still buying video games though. The Nintendo Switch during a time like this, certainly becomes more attractive. Sales are understandable given the circumstances.

 

[Andrew J]

Switch to break 10 million LTD next week?

EDIT: Must have transposed the 9 from the millions column to the hundred thousands column. It'll be another ~6 weeks.

You are expecting it to sell 446k units next week ? :P

 

[Chris1964]

2020 will be a very tough year for Sony if PS5 doesn't launch at holidays.

They already announced that it would in Japan right?

No way it will sell almost 450k next week.

Looking at the percentage of the total population of the country, it's a very big part of the country who had a lot of trouble from the typhoon.

The official Japanese PlayStation Twitter account said it will launch "at the end of 2020"
