Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.
Final Fantasy barely out and already below Zelda.

The switch unfortunately couldn't hold another 100k+ week, but 86k with nothing notable releasing is still damn good. Two more weeks before Pikmin 4 releases. I am hoping Pikmin 4 does really well, I love the series and hope to see it grow.

Very good hold for PS5 hardware, and the 1 2 Switch sequel sold more in its 2nd week than in its 1st week.



This is the same everywhere. Open world Zelda legs and JRPG legs couldn't be more different.
I know. Even way back the second week for mainline FFs were always much lower. Still, they are single player Role Playing Games, and for many decades FF's sales were considerably superior to Zelda's. It used to be much more popular.

On other hand the PS4 outselling both Xbox Series consoles 4 to 1 is.
Well don't forget that doesn't include digital. That's were xboxes sell the most/dominate.
I thought Phil said that there will be lots of Series X stock for Japan? Or maybe I've misheard!?
I remember there was a spike the week after the showcase. Either shipments died out right after, or the interest did.

Terrible for PS5. They might as well pack it up.

These sales without any software sales will kill Sony. Watch it sell 10k units next week.

Oh wait, I am not Nautilus.

All jokes aside. What is the next "big" release on PS5?

Spiderman 2 will probably sell as good as final fantasy 16.

I'm still waiting for PS5 to fall to less than 20k which apparently it was supposed to happen a long time ago.
A long, long time ago, I can still remember
How that NAUTILUS used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those PS5 dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made him shiver
With every PS5 I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
He couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if he cried
When I read about his perma'd bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day the NAUTY died.

So, bye, bye, Miss NAUTY Pie
Drove my Sony to The Pony, but The Pony was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey in Rye
Singin', "This'll be the day of the PS5
This'll be the day that I die"

RIP Naughty.

Could be world wide ff15s drop was 44% for week 3 to 44k units
We are in Famitsu Japan thread and the quoted link is about Famitsu. Not talking about worldwide, Japan is only region with close to real numbers weekly. We also get UK weekly but not real number but just rankings so hard to really tell what overall number is in UK.

I'll only comment on numbers that are known and Japan numbers is not what I would call strong.

Famitsu will refer to worldwide trends especially if they posted in English, but it could just be pr spin

Yes we've come a long way from the PS1/PS2 days for those franchises.

Spiderman 2 will probably sell as good as final fantasy 16.
Spiderman was not as big as FF on PS4, but we'll have to see if it declines as much.

But that just mean that it need the right direction and it could be as popular again. It still has loads of weight tho.

There is a 50/50 chance that the Switch will surpass the Nintendo DS and become the best selling console of all time in Japan.

If the next Switch comes out in the first quarter of 2024, then It probably won't, but if Nintendo will postpone it to the second quarter, then it just might.

Unbelievable!

I thought Final Fantasy been selling more than Zelda since FF7. Then came BotW blew up.
I think Totk is on pace to close in on 5 million copies in Japan by the beginning of next year.

Last Nintendo report showed a 50/50 split between physical and digital so, assuming said ratio, it is already at ~ 3.5 million, before the holidays' boost.
