Infinite Undiscovery sells 70k first day ...

[URL]http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=1972[/URL]Which is extremely good considering its a brand new IP, BD only managed that much in its entire first week and went on to sell 210k. ToV did 105k and has much great legs, who know it may reach 220k. IU seems to be doing good, it wont have legs as great, but i think itll hit 150k lifetime if not more.With that said, its really sad that MS missed out on ToV hype, the console is SEVERELY undershipped their, heck it sold 1k units this week, thats one of the WORST WEEKS EVER Either way, Japan has gotten pretty interesting now that MS has made a big of a dent there. Infinite Undiscovery sells 70k first day ...
As usual, sorry if oldInfinite Undiscovery sells 70k first day ...
I don't think ToV really has any legs. It bottomed out already. We'll have to wait and watch IU.
...then sells 10k next week......then drops off the charts in week 3...while X360 continues to sell under 1K in a week.I respect MS for trying, but when your best is not good enough, I suggest you quit.
[QUOTE=''Ibacai'']I don't think ToV really has any legs. It bottomed out already.

Either way, if you see BDs record, by this stage the game was selling less. Next week when the new month starts MS should have a fresh shipment.BD pushed 200k 360s there, its been instrumental in solidifying all-round Japanese support for the console, unfortunately, ToV has onyl secured around 35k, MS get a move on!

BD was selling 15-20k 360s every week for around 2 months.Clearly this is a supply problem, but i think itll be too little too late, hopefully IU can boost it a bit but im not counting on it as it doesnt have the hype of BD or the name of ToV

I doubt they need advice like that.

Microsoft hasn't left a dent in Japan. Also if the case has Square-Enix its an automatic cash cow in Japan.

I will make a dent in Japan soon but it hasn't already.



Nintendo and Sony's little handheld have Japan in check. Although I think soon enough jrpg support for PS360 will change that.

thats great

No Japanese developers are paying attention to Wii, DS, and PSP.



Some are paying attention to PS360. Its enough to leave a dent for sure. Most Japanese devs are ignoring PS360. Thats for now and they are taking notice of both consoles. Which is why we'll see massive PS360 jrpg soon enough.



I wouldn't speculate about the end of this gen until its over.

Oh in that case agreed 100%



The PS360 are getting attention and its about time.
[QUOTE=''SnakePS360Gamer'']Oh in that case agreed 100% The PS360 are getting attention and its about time.[/QUOTE]I hope so, without Japans full support, you can only expect the generation to go downhill.
Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Last Remnant, Star Ocean 4, Cross Edge, Dark Cloud 3, Cry On, White Knight Story. Sure some are exclusive, some are multi but if you look at the big picture. More jrpg are coming for PS360 in the future. I doubt its going downhill.



I'm so proud to own both.
Thats pretty great for a 360 gameEdit : in japan that is
I used to be mad at Squarenix for not suportthe 360 but now its diferent,FF XIII at leese in US I don't care if MS can,t conquer Japan its all about to have japanese suport and good RPGs
