Somewhere. I think.
Great Switch sales. Curious to see how high sales will go.

Shin Sakurai Taisen mega bomba!... wait, that's just a typo :P

Guess the 240k could've been for Switch sales after all...

140k FW for Sakura Taisen is a great debut. Let's hope it will have some legs, but I think Sega can be very happy with this first week performance.

Also, lol at that 258% rise of Ring Fit Adventure. Definitely still supply-bound.

Switch hardware and software are great. I'm assuming that Sakura Wars' number are wrong right? (They were, still kinda low).

Decent week overall.

140k is okay for Sakura Wars but I blame the hinted leaks for giving me false hope at the last minute.

Wow. More stock pls.

Good increase for evergreens and switch HW. PS4 will see better numbers next week when promotion drops.
Sakura wars opening is nice. Hope the leg will be somewhat good.

PS4 managing to crawl to 1M.
Next week should be up due to discounts right ?

02./00. [PS4] New Sakura Wars # <ACT> (Sega) {2019.12.12} (¥8.800) - 14.376 / NEW
Is this a typo ? Last thread people said the blog said 140k.

Switch up again, and Pokemon too.

Pokemon now over USUM Retail, and probably close to SM with digital right ?

Sakura Wars V was 112k fw in 2005. Iunno what to think of this - it's alright I guess?

140k feels quite high to me and good for a dead franchise resurrection. Maybe I'm wrong.

PS4 number seems quite low.

Luigi seems to be legging pretty well for as concerning as his start was (in Japan).

How much did Sakura Wars sell on Saturn and Dreamcast?

114]

SalesEdit
Several staff members were highly sceptical the game would be a commercial success, but Hiroi promised Sega that the game would sell at least 200,000 units.[117]

Sakura Wars sold out in many stores within hours of its release.[14] According to Famitsu sales data, Sakura Wars sold an estimated 205,270 units in its first week, reaching the top of the sales charts[118] and selling through just over 57% of its stocks.[119] It was recorded as having the most sales of a Sega original title to that point.[120]

As of 2007, Sakura Wars for the Saturn has sold 359,485 units, becoming the 13th best-selling console title in Japan.[119]

The Dreamcast port debuted with 71,123 units, selling through nearly 65% of its shipment. It eventually reached total sales of 109,686 units, becoming the 33rd best-selling game for the platform.[121] Sakura Wars: In Hot Blooddebuted with sales of 142,351 units, reaching third place on Japanese gaming charts. Despite high anticipation, the remake was outsold by Star Ocean: Till the End of Timefrom Enix (second) and Dynasty Warriors 4from Koei (first).[122][123] During 2003, the remake sold 235,622 units, becoming the 54th best-selling title of the year.[124] The Chinese PC version was apparently an unexpected success, with the first print selling out quickly.[125]

Decent bump for Switch finally, hopefully it can match 2018 next week. Great boosts all round for software in the top 10, especially pokemon. Ring fit finally getting some stock!

Based on the year on year numbers this week was competing with Smash's release last year? If so that's a strong #

Great software sales for Switch, especially Pokemon is doing some very great numbers.

Switch Hardware is good, but I would have expected even more a few weeks ago. December sales in general will be most probably down compared to December 2018 sales.

140k for Sakura Wars is an okay debut imo. Not strong, but not weak, either. Shows the franchise still has a decent following even if it's up there with its heyday performance.

Switch at 236k is pretty good, but it highlights how big Smash in December was last year. Hopefully next week can touch 300k! 4.5M by the end of the year looks tough right now, they have 2 weeks for 530k.

PS4 will be interesting starting next week, when the holidays sales have started.

LM3 rising quite nicely along with all the other evergreens.

December Nintendo Switch hardware sales so far:

Weeks 49 and 50

2019 - 425.126 (-25%)
2018 - 563.826

Once again just when I think Switch will get to next level it disappoints me, at this rate it will not be able to match last December.

XYs 4th full week: 89,569
SMs 4th full week: 188,648

SWSH is on fire
Yeah, it really is. There's even a small chance it lands at 3M BY the end of the year - otherwise it will be there during week 1. That puts it only 300k behind Sun/Moon launch aligned, and digital puts it well over (640k in the first week, versus less than 100k lifetime for SunMoon).

Not bad for Sakura Wars; especially considering the state of the PS4 market in Japan right now. Goes to show that there was a loyal and dedicated fanbase lying in wait after all. SEGA will likely be fairly pleased with the results.

About damn time RFA got restocked. Nintendo really dropped the ball badly with the stock situation here.

LM3 is finally starting to get its much needed holiday boost; still surprising to see it lag behind its 3DS predecessor, so hopefully the holidays will be kind to it.

Pokemon S/S is performing very well, way beyond my expectations! Great to see!

Switch at 236K is good, but it really needs to pull ahead of last year, considering that this will likely be its lifetime peak.
