Media Create sales (12/24/18 - 12/30/18)

The latest Japanese hardware sales from Media Create.

[Moonman]

186,806 for the Nintendo Switch. Good lawd...lol

[Lime123]

Fantastic. Especially when you consider that week before it sold 300k.

[Neonridr]

how did the PS4 do this week? oh right over 100k less.

Smash has sold almost as much as MHW did and it did it in a month.

Oh look DQ Builders has now sold more on the Switch than the PS4 with a smaller audience. I remember you going on about how 3rd party games sell better on the PS4 in Japan.

20 of the 30 titles were on the Switch.

Please tell me what you have possibly got to go on this week.

[King_Noctis]

Don’t you ever get tired of being salty all the time Lime?

[StormSnooper]

@Neonridr
Not sure you should be taking that tone when PlayStation 4 and not Switch is the clear leader globally. Let’s not miss the forest for the trees here. Other than that I love the Switch personally, but I’m not going to acquire selective memory just to praise it.

"Fantastic. Especially when you consider that week before it sold 300k."

Oh you mean the week leading up to X-mas???, what a surprise

[Neonridr]

@StormSnooper - I don't try to pretend anything. The Switch has been selling well in every region lately, software is through the roof and hardware is chugging along nicely. These messages were directed solely at Lime who is the worst kind of troll who tries to brag about anything and everything to make it seem like Nintendo can't do any good. Every week he will pull out some stupid number, like the PS4 still has sold more LTD (not counting the fact that it's been out over 3 years longer mind you).

[Gemmol]

Smash bros is a monster in less than 4 weeks it out sold monster hunter world for ps4 to take the number 1 spot for best selling game of 2018 in Japan

What's even more crazy its gonna pass Splatoon 2 soon to become best selling game in Japan between switch and PS4

Switch games take up 20 out of 30 games on the list, everything is selling

[Lime123]

PS4 up compared to week before.
Switch 100k down compared to week before.
LTD PS4 still leads by over 600k.
Judgment crossed 200k.
In 2 weeks Resident Evil 2 and KH3.
Dissapointg numbers for Pokemon.

[King_Noctis]

PS4 is not a up. If you look the sales of the ps4 this week, it only includes 1 console sale which combine both the Ps4 and the PS4 Pro. Compare that to lst week’s sale and you’ll see.

But I wouldn’t expect you to read all that.

[Neonridr]

haha.. YTD Switch 3.5 million sold, PS4 YTD 1.7 million sold. Switch literally sold twice as many units in the same span.

LTD is going to be passed in half the time.

Judgement crossed 200k? Drum and Fun on the Switch has over 270k sold

Disappointing numbers for pokemon? Show me a game in Japan for the PS4 that has sold even half of what pokemon has done.

[Lime123]

Including digital, MHW is best selling game for 2018.

?

[Neonridr]

no it isn't. Splatoon 2 is more than likely the best selling game for 2018. Splatoon 2 is almost at 3 million physical. Factoring in digital and it's probably more like 3.5 million.

[Zeldafan64]

You want the Switch to fail but it's not going to. It's nice to see you waste so much time hoping for something that will never happen.

[Zeldafan64]

The Switch is selling FASTER than the ps4.

[Gemmol]

Sorry mediacreate only count physical sales.......even if it did another company already said smash in Japan is over 3 million

So u lose either way physical sales only uwaqpr physical and digital sales together.....smash a monster

[Lime123]

Link for 3 million for smash in japan?

[thesoftware730]

Lime, see below.

05./04. [NSW] Dragon Quest Builders 2 (Square Enix) {2018.12.20} (¥7.800) – 38.014 / 165.418 (-70%)
06./03. [PS4] Dragon Quest Builders 2 (Square Enix) {2018.12.20} (¥7.800) – 32.368 / 163.882 (-75%)

I do believe that is a 3rd party game lol.

Nintendo is really having a field day over there..its just no stopping this thing.

[Gemmol]

Lol don't show him that, he won't have anything to respond

[SammyJ]

Oh I'm sure he will find a way...

[ZeekQuattro]

Don't be so sure. He's good for sending nonsensical private messages on here. Lol

[Iamkratos]

NINTENDOMINATION

[Lime123]

The only place in the world where Nintendo dominates.

[Neonridr]

yeah but it's not even close. At least in the UK and NA the Switch has been selling very closely to the competition. Even if it didn't win it was always within a small distance. In December The Switch sold like 750k more units than the PS4 in Japan.

[Kiwi66]

You seem annoyed that a console has done better than the PS4 in one country

[meganick]

The Xbox numbers seem like they must be a typo, but they’re probably not. Microsoft might as well ditch that market instead of sinking money into it.

[eagle21]

The Xbox One "362" is their next console....haha.

[Lime123]

Switch in it's second year barely up compared to 2017 when it was supply constrained.
After first 22 months Switch is behind Wii, 3DS, DS and GBA in Japan.

[King_Noctis]

Wow, what will Nintendo do? They are doomed.

[Theknightofnights]

If the Switch is behind Wii, 3DS, DS, and GBA in Japan I'd hate to see how far the PS4 is behind.

[EddieNX]

Switch is a massive success.

[Daniel124]

Switch Is Massive Successful
