Famitsu Sales: Week 43, 2024 (Oct 21 - Oct 27)

those Vita sales make me sad
best handheld ever in terms of power and form factor, and its library was nothing to sneeze at either if you're a weeaboo like me

Best emulation handheld on the market. It can play all the games upto and Including PS1 and N64 games.
CNC red alert 1 on the go is *chefs kiss*

Another talking point about to be buried for the PS5 is doing the best ever for a Sony console crowd... PS4 about to take back its own and then PS3 will slowly surpass.

PS5 again will be lucky to scratch 8 million with Pro included... Just a colossal failure on all ends over there.

Herman Hulst.

You have the power, Bryan, to start an awareness campaign against this man and how he has irrefutably damaged the playstation brand.

The problem is, I think it goes right to the top of Sony... Not just Herman. Sure he isn't good but he is only part of the problem now.

I plan to pick it up hopefully soon. Been playing a lot of JRPGs I missed out on back in the day, the SaGa games among them. Very happy to see the game selling this well and hope it continues to do so.

Now if SEGA could just do a remake for the Shining Force III games (or Panzer Dragoon Saga or Shining the Holy Ark)....

Either that or DQ3 HD but i need to finish Metaphor first.

A change near the top can change the top. Katuragi did. Cerny did. Boyes, shuhi, they all did it.

Use your powers of internet forum for good. Plus, it may boost numbers and viewership here if the unofficially Sony forum causes a stir online. All publicity is good publicity.

Sony has given up Japan with those hardware sales.

Increasing the price was a stupid thing to do.

Imagine what PS5 will sell when Switch 2 gets all 3rd party games including from Japanese publishers & Sony/PS continue to diminish its platform to PC & Nintendo.

The moves Sony/PS has done been nothing more then short vision & if you see the landscape you will need more exclusive true permanent exclusive as PS no longer have key partner exclusivity like Yakuza, FF & Persona & competitor like Nintendo blue the line of 3rd party support & power & Valve/Steam continue to bolster there Steam platform including valve own console w the Steamdeck

Sony has out themselves in the same position as Xbox only in the short term PS looks fine but in the long term PS looks bleak.

The only ones that’s well positioned is Nintendo & Valve/Steam even potential competitors like Apple has there storefront close w exclusive content & I wouldn’t put it past Apple to consolidate, acquire publishers & build a handheld that’s integrated w the App Store so you have first party exclusive, 3rd party & essentially ALL mobile games
