Battlefield 4 Breaks Pokémon’s Domination in Japan According to Major Retailer’s Sales Charts

Like every Monday the major Japanese retail and rental chain Tsutaya released its weekly sales charts, that are usually considered a nice glimpse on what the Media Create charts will look like on Wednesday, since Tsutaya has a very large number of stores scattered across the whole country.

And this time around, there's a surprise, with a western game breaking the Pokémon domination.

Now that's surprising. I didn't realize Battlefield was THAT popular over there?

Abriael3811d ago

It's pretty popular, and even more so it's VERY strongly advertised.

In Japan there's a rule: advertise it enough (and well enough) and they'll come.

They picked the fps that will cater to them more.

COD doesnt appeal them as a nexct gen title with its 6v6 compared to 64 players at once with larger maps, vehicles & Asians.

I know the asians in game are chinese but I would assume that could play a familiarity factor for some.

thehobbyist3811d ago

Japanese players prefer Battlefield of Call of Duty because it's more team oriented and group oriented efforts are a part of the modern Japanese lifestyle. If you don't believe just ask anyone living in Japan.

My GOD, IT'S THE END TIMES!!!!!!

lonz3583811d ago

Great game that need more sales, unlike Call of Duty. Can't wait to play mine Friday on the PS4.

H4all3811d ago

that '' Akiba’s Trip 2 Vita/PS3 '' (ノ°ο°)ノ
would been nice if they localize it...

Inception3811d ago

From siliconera interview, they said they will think about it if there's huge audience / demand for it. So, it's time to spam PSblog, xseed, Aksyss, or NISA if we want this game in english :D

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250751d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface750d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop751d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno751d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel752d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps751d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888751d ago (Edited 751d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33751d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888751d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH751d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
