so it's 325,000... that's even better. if it hits 1 million in a week i'd be surprised... but it's not out of the question

Misterhbk4503d ago

They only shipped 500,000. Next shipment probably won't be until early in 2012. They'll sellout shortly though, that much we can pretty much be assured of.

tiffac0084503d ago (Edited 4503d ago )

I think they only have 700k in Japan for the rest of the year. Next shipments will probably be at the start of Jan 2012 to accommodate their 4th qtr shipments which will probably include the world wide release.

@Misterhbk

Then that means the report of Sony shipping an extra 200k to retailers is wrong? That means they only have like 175k to last them for the rest of the year. I'm not sure that's enough before they can send out their next shipment.

Misterhbk4503d ago

They didn't ship 700k. They sold through 65% of the shipment which totaled at 325k which means the shipment was 500k

Misterhbk4503d ago

Yeah, they have less than 200k to ride the remainder of the year. Definitely gonna be shortages, especially since people buy gifts for new years in Japan rather than Christmas. They're window for big shopping still had another week left. Next weeks Vita numbers will probably sell through the remainder of the shipment.

WooHooAlex4503d ago

Not amazing numbers, but definitely solid. I was surprised to see that it doubled PSP launch numbers.

February can't get here soon enough!

MasterCornholio4503d ago

Pretty good numbers and it's good to see the Vita doing better at launch than the PSP.

Sony will need to tackle demands and ship more vitas to retailers before the end of this year,by the end of this week,there might not be any more vitas to sell !

tarbis4503d ago

I wonder if they're gonna release the numbers for online pre-orders. Many already got their PSV even before launch.

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens529d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK21219d ago (Edited 9d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens529d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens529d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani9d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum10d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman10d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim10d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

I disagree Batman
