Sony Dominating Japanese Software Sales, Despite 3DS Launch

GamingUnion.net: "The Nintendo 3DS is the talk of the town right now in the West, with record pre-orders for Nintendo's latest console. It was a similar story in Japan too, as the console sold out on launch-day. However, even though only a short period of time has passed since that moment, the hype, at least in Japan, has already started dying away. Indeed, this week's Media Create results show that despite everything being about Nintendo, Sony are dominating the software sales and aren't all that far behind in the hardware sales."

Not all too surprising, the, presumably, good titles aren't out yet.

mephman4789d ago

I don't know if Nintendo should be worried or not. Clearly their titles aren't selling how they'd hoped.

fozzness4789d ago

yea... I just want to see how sells go once something like Kingdom Hearts 3DS goes on sale. I'm sure KH fans will eat it up.

Hardedge4789d ago

Correct me I'm wrong, but other than 3D, not many of the launch titles actually offer anything new to warrant a purchase.

ShawnCollier4789d ago

IMO, it looks like they launched now to have the sales on their quarterly results.

The "real" launch if they had a choice probably would have happened this Summer when games like Zelda and Starfox are being released.

ozstar4788d ago

Japan is just a strange market of late, and Nintendo knows it.

If this was the week when an Earthquake on Friday probably stopped every japanese person from leaving the house all weekend, these sales aren't at all surprising.

This image basically confirms that in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon we will be seeing an alternate story. While it has been stated by Nintendo multiple times that this was the case, they were never really clear on it.

Why in fucks name did the designs for the mc make it through the planing stages of development? They are by far the worse thing pokemon have produced.

MeteorPanda2411d ago

but...you customize your own characters now? l dont like that boys neck. holy shit it's about as strong as a twig

Antnee5342411d ago

I understand that, but if you pick a boy you get the worse choices.

MeteorPanda2410d ago

oh for sure. The franchise just shits on the male version more and more per new entry, lol

Antnee5342410d ago

It's so weird being that the player base is 70/30 male you know. You would think that they would give the males a better choice selection.
