    News Circana (NPD) US sales October - PlayStation platforms accounted for 82% of COD: Black Ops 6 console dollar sales volume

    The data point is almost certainly to show the split between the consoles and talk about the effect of CoD on Xbox with the Gamepass inclusion. Wouldn't make sense to put PC in the mix as well. As for the this, I think it's complicated? I recall that ABK gave PC data to Circana, but only...

    Xbox Avowed | New Previews are Coming Up

    I can see the improvements in the combat animations compared to the first showing(s) so at least I can see that it's not complete jank, I'm sure the improvements probably vary from weapon to weapon though. I guess what reviewers mean by it plays better than it looks in video is that snappier...

    News Circana (NPD) US sales October - PlayStation platforms accounted for 82% of COD: Black Ops 6 console dollar sales volume

    Insane start for Dragon Ball. Silent Hill 2 remake lifetime only behind the OG SH2, it's like poetry. Erm... I think that's incorrect? In reality Dragon Age is likely to be above Metaphor, it's just that EA doesn't share Steam sales with Circana as per this image: Something something we...

    News Famitsu Sales: Week 46, 2024

    Somebody should've told Square-Enix, I don't think they got the memo. Imagine missing the demand by this much in that one country where it matters the most. It's not like DQ3 was not this insane phenomenon back in the day, no sir. It just sold a measly 3M FW back in... 1988 Square-Enix is...

    News Famitsu Sales: Week 46, 2024

    Because they're incompetent, it's that simple. It isn't the first, or second time that they're undershipped their JRPGs in Japan on the Switch in the last like 2-3 years. It's a recurring thing with them.

    News Famitsu Sales: Week 46, 2024

    The Switch shipment is especially inexcusable from Square-Enix. It's not like this was a surprise last minute surge in interests like Unicorn Overlord earlier this year. The pre orders numbers were suggesting an easy 800k-1M physical JUST for the Switch. DQ3 on Switch was out of stock across the...

    Discussion UK Sales: Week 46, 2024

    You're going to be surprised when the numbers come in tomorrow. Square-Enix undershipped again in Japan, especially on the Switch. Stock issues were almost immediate, lmao. A shame, but I'm sure a bunch of folks bought the game digitally. Still means we won't be able to see the "correct"...

    @ethomaz fighting the good fight. Personally I would nominate an Expansion. Shoutout to two of my biggest childhood games: Starcraft: Brood War and Warcraft 3:The Frozen Throne.

    Discussion Reuters: Sony in talks to buy media powerhouse behind 'Elden Ring', sources say

    Anime =/= Light Novels/Mangas Sony buying a piece of that market isn't going to trigger any anti-trust concerns. https://www.statista.com/statistics/864958/japan-major-publishing-companies-based-on-revenue/ Shuheisha/Kodansha/Shogakukan (and many others) say hi.

    News Famitsu Sales: November 4-10 l PS5 Pro 78K. A great start for the PS5 Pro.

    Square-Enix not having the correct amount of physical copies shipped to retailers to meet demands is a classic. Unfortunate that the First Week numbers we'll get next week won't be the "true" number that it could've been.

    News Square Enix Takes a $350 Million Hit in Value as Stock Plummets

    Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D is about to sell something like 1.5M~ FW in Japan(with digital) so I guess next quarter will probably look decent for the HD segment? Romancing SaGa 2 also did much better than other recent titles in the franchise as well.

    News [VGC] New Virtua Fighter in production

    That's some old school video game reveal, a small footnote in a larger interview. People suspected(plus the leak) but it's great to have an official confirmation.

    Discussion PC Players of Monster Hunter Wilds Aren't Happy That It Can "Barely Run" On PC

    Those were marginal performance upgrades and "hack-fixes". Nothing really that changed performance in a very significant way. As many suspected when Monster Hunter WIlds' spec sheet came out months ago and it was pretty much the same as DD2. Performance of the RE engine with those open world...

    Discussion Nintendo: intelligent, creative, sustainable and completely EXCLUSIVE.

    Yeah I wasn't too clear in my post. I coupled Capcom/Square-Enix and other big JP publishers more on the fact that they're seeking to expand their workforce rather than slim down, even the ones that aren't doing as well as Capcom/Nintendo. It's clear the difference in mentality at the corporate...
