Yikes Monster hunter really dropped compared to the last one on 3ds
Eli King
As expected, MH did terrible. Time to move on from the 3DS.
Justin Adams
Next weeks Switch numbers should be very interesting with the Splatoon 2 demo.
Brody Cooper
>S-sales don't matter, games just happen from magic!
Underaged spotted
Oliver Ross
>Switch is the top selling platform when a Monster Hunter game is release on a separate platform
Its time for Monster Hunter Switch Capcom.
Jackson Campbell
X just wasn't very good and then they decided to sell the same game again, fucking people over twice. I wouldn't buy it either.
Dominic Gray
>04./03. [NSW] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild # (Nintendo) {2017.03.03} (¥6.980) - 32.115 / 262.977 (-28%) b-b-but it was sold out, delete this
Leo Walker
Japan has never liked Zelda
Levi Russell
>tfw already getting 2018 announcements
Joshua Cooper
Can someone please explain to me why they release enhanced editions of monster hunter instead of just releasing it as a paid DLC update or expansion pack?
Nip consumers are fucking strange for buying the same game again for full retail price but with DLC updates tacked on.
Alexander Phillips
NINTENDOMINATION

>Nip consumers are fucking strange for buying the same game again for full retail price but with DLC updates tacked on.
You act like America and EU aren't the same.
The first 2 years of PS4 consisted of nothing but re-releases and "remasters" and people sucked cock for them.
James Nelson
Because hardcore fans are going to buy it.
Probably the last time Capcom can do this.
Joshua Morales
If you know its going to happen you don't buy the first version and buy this kind. It's like waiting for GOTY versions in the west
Connor Powell
Those PS4 remastered are often part of collections or are discounted. Like Uncharted collection comes with 3 games for $40
Gavin Miller
Japanese consumers are absolutely retarded and/or fanatical.
It's possibly the greatest market in the world for exploiting rehashes, just like China is the king of microtransactions.
Ethan Ramirez
>800k >In 2 days
Fuck
Jose Powell
They usually add enough content and do enough gameplay I changed that a new game is justified.
I'm not so sure about this one though. There's literally only 2 new monsters.
Xavier Cooper
i thought you guys say switch would flop this week?
William Wright
>They usually add enough content and do enough gameplay I changed that a new game is justified. But again couldn't they just release it as a paid update for the original base game? It's still the same game just with more monsters added and a few adjustments. If they really have to print out new cartridges, box art, and create a separate gameID an titlekey# just to add 2 new monsters, that's retarded as hell.
Isaac Lee
it did 50k is shit nintentoddlers were saying it was sold out, which it obviously isnt
Adrian Bennett
The stats are fake. Worldwide 0 people have bought one.
Thomas Mitchell
BOTW is close to outselling Skyward Sword already.
Noah Evans
No because G games literally double the content sometimes.
Elijah Collins
Still could be released through a game update. You have a SD card sitting in your 3DS for no almost no reason.
Cameron Barnes
BOTW will end up being the best selling title of the franchise in Japan.
Incredible.
Gavin Hall
>xbone
every time
Nicholas Stewart
4 days retarded
MH4G and MH4 had just about the same out of time and sold more
off yourself
Jonathan Cox
>Why vitas?
Because OP is trying to start another console war thread.
Brody Murphy
Why are you so upset lmao what a freak
Brandon Martin
After Splatoon2 comes out, Switch looks like it's going to drop hard in hardware and software sales until Xenoblade or Pokémon comes out
Ryder Carter
Splatoon sold for a long time for the Wii U, and basically carried the system for months.
Adam Brooks
That makes no sense. Hardware sales don't stop once a big game hits you dumbass.
Jose Perez
>PS4 water game spin off selling better than SK2
Gabriel Cruz
>pls shitta die grrrr
Joseph Rivera
>Game that's gained a larger fanbase sold more copies than game that came out earlier
Wew
Eli Price
What I mean is that Switch peaks at Splatoon 2s release week then starts dropping off week after week until it becomes Vita levels of sales. There's really nothing to look forward to on the Switch after Splatoon unless you really like Mario.
Alexander Smith
Shinovi Versus sold more than SK2 the year before tho.
Austin Lopez
Sv sold more than sk2.
Alexander Hughes
>what is e3
Christopher Edwards
>unless you really like Mario Are you serious? That's a clear system seller, mate.
The Fire Emblem Musou might also move units in Japa.
Chase Baker
Something Nintendo barley shows up to anymore and any game they announce on their Direct will be for 2018+
Evan Evans
>441K Switch sold in Japan alone in March, usually a slow month for sales
NINTENDO WON
Michael Scott
Mario is only a system seller in America and that's mainly because of Mario Kart. Nips don't really care about Mario that's why most Mario games are usually bundled with the console/handheld there
Noah King
Wait, this doesn't make sense. I thought the Switch killed the 3DS? Shouldn't the new Zelda be top?
When will the 3DS fucking die!
Hudson Morgan
>Nips don't really care about Mario
What the fuck am I reading
Josiah Diaz
That's when the real shitposting begins.
Liam Cox
>Nips don't really care about Mario
Connor Murphy
Amusing that what is considered a Monster Hunter flipping in Japan stills comes out as more sales than they get in the west for their entire lifetime.
Adrian Moore
Mario always sells better in America and Europe than in Japan. Look up any sales figures.
Dominic Clark
>Mario sells a few more millions in the West than it does in the East
Wow they sure do hate it
Brody Green
Even Japan is waking up to the reality that MonHun went to shit after 4
Parker Butler
Of course it does, pretty much every game sells better in American and Europe. They've got bigger populations after all.
Juan Evans
SK2 was bad user, accept it
Ian Hughes
Even Splatoon sold more in the US than in Japan
Jaxson Roberts
>M-m-monster Hunter is doomed
Capcom will release MH5 next spring and it will sell like hot cakes because "muh main series"
Nathan Cook
It actually went to shit when it went to 3DS in general. We went from content masterpieces like Freedom Unite PSP and Portable 3rd on the PS3 to 240p 3DS with auto aim lock-on and nerfed monsters.
Ryder Cook
>mfw Accel world is selling well
>mfw it has sao atached to it
>mfw it only selling well because of fucking SAO
Brayden Wood
>Being this fucking delusional
P3rd was fucking garbage. Accept it.
4/4U and 3U are better than FU in every way.
Eli Kelly
My sides. Even after the switch, the 3ds is still raping the vita hard.
42k vs 8k
Poor little vita
>but muh attach rate >brand new game, crossover from famous ips, sell only 38k units
So where are those attached users?
Sebastian Jenkins
No shit, Japanese people have no taste. The best selling games in Japan currently are smartphone MOBAGE crap. Puzzle and Dragons plus Granblue rake in more money than any Monster Hunter game can dream of. So much so that even Nintendo is trying to get into that market with those Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing smartphone games.
Liam Sanders
Elaborate your reasonings. You can't say something is shit without saying why. Freedom Unite has the most content out of any mainline MH game, Portable 3rd is the defacto of 3rd gens game design, every other MH title released afterwards has been either lacking in content or dumbed down to appeal to a broader audience (3DS consumers).
Nathan Wilson
Damn the Vita is going strong even when Sony pulled the plug. That's amazing.
Also read that Vita is getting over 250 localized games in English in 2017 whereas the 3DS is only getting 10. That's incredible.
Blake Peterson
It's a MH release week, nothing else matters
Kayden Anderson
>250 localized games
Can't wait for Panty Hunters 14 and Pantsu Rabu 3.
Oliver Morales
>Nip commutes can last hours to get to school/work via tube/train >Portable games and Mobile games are top Nip money makers
Gee I wonder where the correlation is.
Henry Phillips
Agreed. Vita is the gift of god.
Elijah Sullivan
>| NSW | 49.913 |
But nintendildos told me Switch sold out and was impossible to purchase.
Brayden Bennett
Why does no one mention that PS4 is gaining a ton of momentum in Japan? It's outselling PS3 and selling about 30-40k weekly. In 2013, everyone thought console gaming in Japan was forever dead. And now PS4 is pulling ahead against all common sense.
Michael Myers
I hate smartphone games too, but Granblue is legitimately good.
Austin Thomas
It's almost as if new consoles are being produced constantly.
Asher Russell
Vita is also getting games scheduled to be released in 2018. New Virtual On game from Sega, that 2D mecha game from Vanillaware, more weeb and PS4 ports, indie games, etc.
Whereas Nintendo needs first party support to stay alive, Sony and Vita gets by fine with third party.
Lucas Peterson
The 3ds was released 6 years ago user, it doesnt matter what game is being released, everyone who wanted a 3ds should have one already!!
Its supposed to be the vita year! Someone please post that huge list of multiplatforms, shovelware and ports asap. We cant afford to lose anymore!
VIta is doing fine! it outlived the 3ds! The ATTACH RATE IS HUGE, PEOPLE DONT BUY THIRD PARTIES ON 3DS. WHAT? MONSTER HUNTER IS A 3RD PARTY? WTF?
Camden Wright
This.
It's actually incredible how long the Vita has stayed alive. Even getting confirmed games in 2018.
Jose Jones
They're not being shipped constantly though.
Josiah Fisher
Vita is the Japanese third-party darling. Yoko Taro had plans to make the Nier sequel on Vita even.
Juan Sullivan
> more weeb and PS4 ports, indie games, etc. Cool...said no one with taste...or a ps4
Elijah Gray
>Being this mad the Vita is alive and getting 10x more games than the 3DS
Laughing my ass off at your life mate.
Chase Roberts
FUCKING CAPCOM HOW DO THEY GET AWAY WITH THIS
Colton Peterson
>had
Cameron Collins
>Stayed alive
It's literally nothing but obscure niche garage. This is like bragging about owning a system that can only play things from steam greenlight.
Cooper Anderson
Someone's upset
Logan Lewis
But they're all weebshit.
Japan has never made a handheld game worth playing and now with japan moving everything to the switch and making console games, the only people buying the Vita are idiots.
Owen Rivera
The salt is real. The samefag is real.
Lmao
Colton Allen
>I only play AAA games, such as Horizon and Andromeda
wow, ur soooo cool
Ethan Walker
>Vita still alive and well >Still getting more games in 2017 than 3DS did in 2015+2016 combined kek
Jayden Gray
>Japan has never made a handheld game worth playing Nigger what are you smoking?
Andrew Gomez
>Surely only one person can point out the Vita is a complete flop being kept on life support by niche games designed to sell 5000 copys
KEK at u
Jayden Wilson
>Still sells like shit kek
Jace Jones
>Japan moving everything to the Switch HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You fucking mean that Japan is moving everything to PS4, Steam, and Smartphones right? Switch ain't got shit for third party support just like every other Nintendo console since the N64
Jonathan Stewart
That's the norm consolefag there mate
Carter Garcia
>tfw 3DS doesn't have Persona 5
Feels good.
Ryder Campbell
>"More games"
All that quantity = quality amirite? All those games nobody knows or has ever heard of.
Brayden Young
Plus, most games in Japan retail between $90-$110 USD. They pay much more for games than we do, they should be a bit more discerning when purchasing games.
