PS5 continue holding...

Pikmin 4 did amazing... I think the franchise never sold that well in Japan before.

 

[sugarbetik]

A new Pikmin game is bigger than a mainline Final Fantasy game in Japan. The biggest surprised in this generation.

 

[Vertigo]

Probably FF16’s last week in top 10. I don’t see the legs. Buh bye.

 

[historia]

I just comes here to witness PS4 vs X Series.

Ps4 wins this round, what a tough fifht.

 

[Swift_Star]

People still hating on FFXVI, huh, pathetic.

 

[ethomaz]

Probably FF16’s last week in top 10. I don’t see the legs. Buh bye.

It won't hit 500k in Japan without a rerelease/international sadly.

Because digital release?

 

[ethomaz]

Because digital release?

With digital it is probably already over 500k but it won't reach launch number of previvous FFs.
With 50/50 ratio it will be around 800k.
With 30/70 ratio it will be around 570k

So a safe bet is something between 570k and 800k.
But remember that except for FFXII all others had digital sales not counted in that chart too (even so FFXIII digital sales ratio should be below 20/80 I guess while FFXV and FFVIIR should be around 30/70).

I bought 2 copies of Pikmin.

 

[Vertigo]

It’s nice that the Switch offers opportunity for stuff like Metroid Dread, Fire Emblem and Pikmin. Shame they haven’t tried to relaunch FZERO yet since it’s the best environment for it since its debut. Like just port GX. You don’t have to do a thing. It holds up.

It's realistically already over 500k in Japan. Why do y'all keep pretending digital isn't a thing?

 

[Danja1187]

The game is probably closer to 600k or over that by now. They can still push it in way it will simply come down to how Aggressive they want to get with bundles and discounts

Digital is a thing for previous FFs too but we are talking about Famitsu here or not?

 

[Box]

Ps4 outselling the both Xbox's, XboxCels must be punching air right now

 

[Danja1187]

It's kinda antiquated to be focusing on just physicals while still comparing it to the past. It's borderline disingenuous at this point. A conversation for the sake of a conversation basically.

Lol a conversation can be had about current FF 16 sales, but I stand by what I said comparing it to past heights is silly.

And sure we can compare those! The same comparison was being made when everyone was also calling FF 15 and underperforming title.

I mean adding digital doesn't change any point made... so for me your comment had no height to me.... I just posted with digital because I thought you was mistaking or confusing things.
But seems you just don't want to see what it is.
