PlayStation 4 – 31 (9.504.998)

You know it's grim when snoy cant even compete with the PS4, let alone the switch 1.

Sales data thread. Move to:

these threads are not allowed there, they are videogame-related and therefore belong here

I was looking forward to it until we knew it was a MP focus game.

If Miyazaki is behind it, I'm willing to give it a shot. It could be a sign that they're testing the waters and a mainline game will be next, whether it's a soulslike or AC or whatever.

This is a data thread. Not video games. The only "video game related" posts are these flame war posts.

This is the falseflag thread to be fair, you can tell because some sonyfag made it a pie chart.

Holy fuck Japs have shit taste in video games...

What about him

I know it will have his seal of quality but I just can't get into the MP side of the Souls genre with invaders and all of that.

Different thread

Switch – 29.710 (35.666.567)

PlayStation 5 – 8.615 (6.833.479)

That's fair. Well, the only thing to do is wait, I suppose, and let FROM do their experiments into multiplayer. I hope they improved their netcode since these are dedicated multiplayer game. It could be excused before since their earlier games were mainly singleplayer experiences with multiplayer elements, but now they don't have that.

We did, it was removed. These are Anon Babble threads and always have been. They aren't going to suddenly change because you decided.

And exactly what thread was it?

shovelware

also on PC

shovelware

okay

okay

shovelware

good

shovelware

shovelware

shovelware

Grim.

This is a data thread

wtf does that even mean? Everything is data, it's a meaningless definition

last famitsu thread actually hit bump limit

did that one janny from this morning fuck off for the day or something

I decide. You do not. You. Lost.

Everything I don't like is shovelware

Jannie was just having fun pissing off the tendies. It was funny to see them talk as if they were getting genocided.

Shovelware means it was created as an afterthought and just dumped on the store with a dozen other similarly lowquality games, anon. If you think they're shit, just call them shit, but I don't think you can call SSBU shovelware and be considered honest.

Damn Nintendo dominates

I wish they actually were

And speaking of older games DS is still their only title on Switch but now it will have ER, I wonder how long it will be for them to port DS 2 and 3 if they would port them at all.

first game is konamit

I barely know what they do now

You're not a mod, you're not a janny. You have no power over me.
Thread stays, eat shit.

Me too. The world would be a better place
False. These numbers are lies and propaganda

t.still has bad memories of ABIB calling Smash a 'cultural phenomenon'

tendies straight up killed hundred line defense

Good job you fucking retarded faggots

shit games are shit

We know.

But did you? Did you really?

It's not and never was.

but you're the one that cries about it every time when you bring up 'tendie mods'

damn, hundred line already out of the top 10

Why are you screenshotting 3 different people, none of which are me?

Why do we have Japanese game sales threads as if anyone gives a fuck what some random Japanese people are playing.

still no 30/30 this year, but i wonder how much of a regular occurance that'll be once the switch 2 comes out

None of what you say is true. I have all the truth. You have none. You have already chosen your pitiful end

this mf thinks hes an anime villain lmao

You know who else chose his pitiful end?

There won't be a 30/30 for some time, since it'll be a fierce competition between the top two market leaders, Switch 1 and Switch 2. We'll know the NS1 is dead when Nintendo gets their first 30/30 for the NS2.

Only tendies trying to use these lies and misinformation for console war

He's in his Internet Tough Guy phase. Why do you think he pretends there are more people agreeing with him than there actually are?

"Switch family" 30/30s are gonna become commonplace though

wouldn't it be a 30/30 if its all nintendo stuff?

False. These numbers are lies and propaganda

Source?

Imagine being a 15 years old snoy looking for a free PS5, and you are greeted by this

Nintendo killed Nintendo, its over

Famitsu gets these numbers wrong all the time. They reported Street Fighter way lower than it was.

False. That did not occur. You are mentally i'll.

Nintendo bros... It might be over, Nintendo will never beat Nintendo...

mentally ill sametranny

You mean the street fighter that sold better on steam due to playstation's atrocious input lag?

Source?

Do you think that the 10 years old Snoy said the same as he was getting assraped by the Snoypedo?

pitiful end

Your new favorite phrase.
It's really useful for seeing the countless posts that piss you off for being completely correct and you realizing there's nothing you can do but lie, cry and make empty threats.

So are we gonna keep getting Famitsu threads that claim a random Switch 2 game is #1 when GTA 6 is DOMINATING everywhere but Japan?

uh oh the schizo's alter ego is spamming now

He probably said NO NOT MY PITIFUL END!

MKW is going to mog GTA6

link to thread 1?

Considering that MKW releases a year before GTA VI even hits the market, you will actually get total MK domination worldwide since there is no noteworthy competition.

it's another anti-tendie schizo having a meltdown

video games?

Of course they will. These lovers think nothing but Japan matters.

doubt kikestar has much hopes in the game when they had to delay the game a full year from how hard they were scared of mario kart alone

Metaphor is bound to get a Definitive version close to the Switch2 launch, right?

1747336108.jpg - 3840x2160, 1.17M

Ask again in a years time when the game comes out and we continue the tradition of posting exactly what the published numbers are.

First that wasn't deleted was Others vanished due to clueless and inconsistent moderation

HOW COULD NINTENDO DO THIS TO ME!

when GTA 6 is DOMINATING everywhere but Japan?

An unreleased 2026 game that is up neither for sale nor preorder. That hasn't even had gameplay shown. Is dominating?
It certainly isn't dominating sales. It's not being sold.

They won't make the thread if GTA 6 dominates because it will mean PS5 is #1.

It can't be healthy when all the hopes and dreams of so many people rest on the shoulders of gta 6

samefag

let me sum it up for you

famitsu recorded ~100k street fighter 6 sales for ps5 and ps4

in a year and a half, street fighter 6 sold 1 million in japan

therefore, despite steam being preferred due to lower input lag, clearly, 90% of all sales of street fighter 6 in japan were digital playstation sales

I am very smart and this makes very much doing the needful sense, saar

We finally got a thread to bump limit. Don't push your luck by immediately fucking spamming another one. At least wait for top30

Why would they be mad, the NS2 version of GTA6 is probably going to sell well enough in Japan?

goyta slop historically sells like shit in japan anon, assuming it even releases there

So basically famitsu is accurate and you don't know how it works.

the NS2 version of GTA 6

It's probably not happening, but it would be hilarious. And considering the games GTA6 can allegedly run on, it's not actually impossible.

Shitch poo is weaker than a ps2 still, no way it runs gtaV, much less gtaVI

Rockstar will NEVER release an inferior version of GTA 6

Are you 12?
Nobody over 18 would talk like that.

you sound like a lil fag

12 is the age tendie pedos prefer

But there's a Series S version of GTA6 coming out?

Like the pedo in this pic?

I have a PS5 Pro and Switch OLED. I don't subscribe to your console war faggotry.

Is there though? Rockstar has only advertised PS5 and XSX. Microsoft isn't going to reject GTA 6 because of a lack of Series S support.

get his ass

You realise Series S is still considerably more powerful than Switch 2, right?

Genuinely curious, what do you play on your ps5 pro that couldn't have been played better on a pc? It's not like there's a wealth of couch multiplayer games on it like there is with switch.

And yet it runs SF6 better than the Series S.

He's moving the goalposts already! lmao!

Square Enix manage to get the PS5 version of FF7R running on switch 2

Every 3rd party game I play on PS5 Pro. I don't like gaming on PC because I work on a PC.

With massive reductions in image quality and fram rate. Rockstar won't decrease the quality of their game to fit weak hardware.

more like hundred sales, amirite?

I'm pretty sure these threads were made even on the rare occasions a PS5 game was at the top

Man, F in chat to PS5 version...

PlayStation 5 – 8.615 (6.833.479)

You're absolutely correct. Famitsu threads are a Anon Babble Thursday tradition regardless of console-warring faggotry.

Tendie pedophiles reported them when astrobot was at the top

Most memorable recent one is Monster Hunter Wilds but yeah, there's never been a thread that wasn't made because a PS5 title was in the top.
However I specifically remember the 2nd thread of a day last year having numbers swapped to falsify the success of said console and games.

astro turf was never at the top, it got cucked by a late port of a touhou rhythm phone game

Only tendies falseify. Playstation is truth.

you mean that week when you spammed famitsu threads every day?

False

This cope brought to you by... Schizophrenia! Talk to your doctor today to find out if you need help - because everyone knows that you do!

Did it manage to stay in the top 10 for more than a week?
I don't even think it's still in the top 30 when something like splatoon 3 has been in there for coming on 3 years now.

How will tendies cope when the next 3D Mario game costs $80? Reminder that Astrobot (GOTY 2024) was only $60.

when astrobot was at the top

That's a weird way to spell Touhou

Astro Bot was 80€ here

it fell off the top ten after 2 weeks, then was off the top 30 in 4

False

How will snoys cope when the next 3D mario outsells astrobot in a week?

They'll claim that Nintendo has invented a new mechanic

I think this schizo is the only sonyfag on Anon Babble to ever bring up astrobot or make threads about it months after release, the average moviegame loving sonyfag in 2025 doesn't give two shits about 3d platformers.

how will you cope when Sony set funkobot to the side and then proceeds to throw it into the garbage like they did with Sackboy.

Terrified of posting Steam sales

El oh el

What would steam sales prove?

you mean flop33?

Expedition 33 is the only home console game

If we had actual hard numbers for steam sales, I'd be posting in those threads too. Player count can sometimes give you an approximation, but is never 100%. Same with relative ranking lists. If you just had relative rankings, you'd see no difference between tokimeki debuting at #1 with 20k sales vs monster hunter wilds debuting at #1 with 600k sales.

They'll continue saying astrobot won GOTY. Remember that they say "sales don't matter" unless it's a non-nintendo game

Or how people prefer to talk about Balatro even to this day.

Why the fuck would anyone play a game that didn't sell well?

Gaming is dead in Japan. Its a hobby for children.

why would any game shilled by everyone in the industry not sell well?

Because you made the main character a nigger, Abdul.

I find hilarious that trannyera banned japanese sales thread because it put Sony on a bad light.
Facts and numbers are the only thing leftists can't deny, so they have to banish.

Lmao I expect the obvious compromised jannies here to ban without warning but what logic would resetera even have to ban those.

Only sales matter

Trannyslop game

facts. shit series should stay dead.

all 1 minute apart

I'd give it a year or two at the minimum.

who cares, the game sucked
purse owner and atlus in general are so overrated

Anons seething at Nintnedo when even on list

I just want Donkey Kong to hurry up and release, I feel like I haven't played a game in forever
nothing gets made anymore but indy shit and journo slop

Why would a Japan sales thread care about non Japan sales

when and why was the famitsu thread ban lifted?

Gacha Revenue Monthly Report (January 2025)

TCG pocket laps genshin 1 month out of 2

Jej

who the fuck is still buying the switch only 2 weeks before the release of switch 2, and at full launch price??

Three games in the top ten

Just what fanbase do you think this is?

Is MH Wilds the fastest a MH game ever dropped out of the top 10 in Japan sales rankings? The PS5 is a disaster.

Capcom doesn't care about Japan or the PS5 or Nintendo now, the Chinese Personal Computer audience is where the money is

I don't know what Sony was thinking when they made that game.

PC and steam has outpaced the PS5 in Japan.
Japanese was something like the 7th most used language on the platform the last time I check its hardware survey. Impressive for a country of its size.

Memeing aside, I'm pretty sure World is going to overtake it in player count in the next few months.

How will consolefags ever recover?

this but unironically

It's already close. Lagi isn't until at least july most likely, and the content is just so barren in wilds.

Why did it flop?

Chinky multipliers.

Combined vs non-jp non-cn

Hoyoslop barely edges out a win.

LaD actually loses anyway.

that's what happens when there's no real competition
also if the PS4 is anything to go by, the switch 1 will be relevant until the switch 3 releases, assuming nintendo ever cares about releasing one given graphics stagnated hard, why wouldn't they buy one if they didn't already? that means they get to wait the launch window until the launch issues are ironed out

09./10. [NSW] Pokemon Scarlet / Violet # <RPG> (Pokemon Co.) {2022.11.18} (¥5.980) - 2.934 / 5.560.368 (+6%)

tim allen.jpg - 494x658, 21.83K

lawd how does one shovelware fag even acquire a ps5/switch/switch2 devkits. motherfuckers spend their entire live savings on getting one just to shit out tiktok games

Except Astrobot never went number 1. Each week, Touhou and VNs were taking the number 1 over Astrobot before the game wasn't even making the top 30 within a month.

he thinks the Switch 1 will go down in price

Because nobody knew about it. The game had no advertising. Not as many were online in 2003 and those that were were in smaller communities dedicated to singular things instead of the massive clusterfuck that websites are now.
I wouldn't have known if I didn't get lucky with getting the wind waker bonus disk and saw the trailer on it. Others might have seen from a gaming magazine or something.

its now the most sold pokemon game behind R/B/Y btw
pokemon fags have no standards

Scarlet and Violet are the best pokemon games since gen iv
Sure they run like shit and are ugly but it's not an action game and you play it on a handheld screen so it's not too big of a deal

I swear to god that if S/V ran fine and wasn't a stuttery mess filled with bugs, it would be considered one of the best games in the entire series, even factoring in side games and spin-offs.

Nah, the SNES original had promise but the series got worse with every game.

got worse with every game

Maybe after GX, sure.

Being better than the miserably low bar that was swsh doesn't make you good.

It's unironically one of the most kino Pokémon games, and it would easily be Top 3 or top spot if it wasn't for the glitches and performance issues.

If Miyazaki is behind it, I'm willing to give it a shot.

Same but Night Reign looking like one of the most embarrassing cash grabs I've seen in a while is giving me major doubts though. Miyazaki's direct involvement is the only thing keeping me sorta interested.

Kind of you to include the game only released in Japan.
Sales data are indicative of popularity but not if a game is good or not.
Good games can sell poorly and bad games can sell well. An unfortunate fact that means even the best series can vanish.

I wonder how much they're going to fix SV with that free switch 2 upgrade.

If they claim sales don't matter then why do they seethe so much and try so hard to stop people from mentioning sales?

Area Zero definitely wins as the best end game content, the music, the atmosphere, the overall presentation.

Yes?

Upside to this is that it uses a lot of reused assets unlike Duskbloods, and being made by the B-Team even if Miyazaki gave his blessing. So, for an experiment, it won't take many resources from FROMSOFT as a whole. I'm willing to bet the next Eldensoulsbornekiro is in the planning stage right now.

i have graphix fatigue, i don't give a single fuck if the game uses 100% reused assets as long as it's good
it's how disgaea made so much money until 5 and why it crashed hard with 6

Only the sales from a certain company matter to them, the problem is that those sales are pathetic.
