>FFXV hits 7 million, probably 8 or 9 million thanks to the upcoming PC port, fastest selling game in the franchise
>Monster Hunter World hits over 6 million, fastest selling game in the franchise

I'm glad that Japanese games are thriving this gen
...
Indeed. Hopefully western developers remember what sells.
>this is what weebshits think
Ebin
Feels great after the bumpy PS3 era.
>westcucks being so retarded to not understand what objective facts and statistics are
>I'm glad that Japanese games are thriving this gen
Are we suddenly going to forget all the shovelware? Square have had 3 games FLOP this year alone
>>Xenoblade 2 hits over a million
It's like 1.1 millon.
Who the FUCK gets happy selling 1 million? Even games like Kingdom come with zero advertising at all can reach 1 million
Which ones?
>Think
I didn't know objective facts were thoughts.
>zero advertising
Not having TV ads doesn't mean you don't have a marketing budget. See: shill threads for the last year+.
>Nier and Xeno 2M
But they're both 1M shipped
Why do millennials just blatantly lie these days
user, you know there's games beyond what Sup Forums and fads, right?
Especially on PC.
Xenoblade 2 doesn’t have normalfag appeal and it still sold more than previous games in the series on a console with a smaller installbase. That’s pretty good imo.
Why is Sup Forums illiterate?
>Not having TV ads doesn't mean you don't have a marketing budget.
LMFAO, nigga thinks Sup Forums threads actually affect the gaming industry, even reddit is more relevent than Sup Forums, don't get twisted.
Kingdom come had no tv ads, no billboards, no train station posters, didn't even get trailers displayed in ANY gaming events like E3 or the game awards and only had some minor booths in gamescom.
>Even games like Kingdom come with zero advertising at all can reach 1 million
Who needs advertising when the screaming harpies are shouting to the entire world not to buy your game.
That's the best advertising you can get.
1 million for a game exclusive to a console with 14 million units out there
vs
1 million for a game after combining sales on PC, PS4, and Xbone. And SJWs did the marketing for them for free :^)
Kingdom Come had pretty big press events in actual castles here in Europe. They got quite a lot of attention that way. It's dominated the frontpages of most games media.
1 million for a game that's series was made known thanks to the widely praised Xenoblade 1 which shulk got put on smash to further popularise the series and put on the hottest console this gen
vs
1 million for a game that had ZERO advertising such as no TV ads or E3 shilling and is a BRAND NEW IP made by devs no one ever heard from and sold 500k on steam alone
nice try weeb, kingdom come also touched a million in under a week
>Kingdom Come had pretty big press events in actual castles here in Europe
Sure it did, that's why i NEVER heard of the game until i saw it on Sup Forums
>it's in smash so it's popular
I guess those Game & Watch and ROB units are still flying off the shelves
It had plenty of ads. And they got free advertising from salt ridden alt-left
Yeah the widley praised Xenoblade 1 that barely hit 1 million in its lifetime.
Explain how Resident Evil 6, a game hated by the community so much it forced capcom to change their direction with the new title, had a port 4 years later on PS4 and sold a million under a month
>It had plenty of ads.
Name a single TV ad and link it here
>boogey man advertised it
You know the people who actually buy this game don't give 2 fucks about politics right?
Yeah, it did.
Well it set the path for the series, same way Persona 3 put Persona on the map in the west and then 4 built on that then 5.
Brand new IP's gotta do all the work on their own
>Name a single TV ad
You don't reach Kingdom Come's audience through tv ads. That's only for normalfags
What are the western games in comparison to these?
This game literally appeals to skyrim neckbeards though...
Yeah but going back to my earlier point, Xenoblade 2 is even more niche than Xenoblade 1 in terms of appeal, while Persona 5 broadened the appeal really widely.
FFXV was a fucking blunder though. Go to any game store and you'll find a good dedicated section of used FFXV games.
COD WW2 sold the best in 2017
It still unfortunately sold. I really wonder what the future of Final Fantasy is going to be though. I already thought outsourced FFXIII sequels was scraping the bottom of the barrel, but this Early Access shit stretching an installment out for two years thing is reaching new lows I never imagined.
>Xenoblade 2 is even more niche than Xenoblade 1 in terms of appeal
I mean, that's just your opinion lad, it's the same shit to most people. How is X1 more appealing when 2 looks better?
>FFXV and Monster Hunter World sold 7 and 6 million respectively
>both games are trash compared to the rest of the series
That being said, I’m more than happy the other games are selling well.
inb4 the MHW defense force arrives
Fuck off. MHW is much bettter than OG tri and shitty XX
i want to marry pyra and nya
Everyone on this board is a millenial including you dumb babby.
I just want more Xenogames. Really loving the fact that this is an successful franchise now with a supportive publisher.
>I'm glad that Japanese games are thriving this gen
It's almost like western developers are filling their games with microtransactions and pissing a lot of people off.
>It's almost like western developers are filling their games with microtransactions
Yeah man, FFXV isn't in early access and selling chunks of the game in parts to faggots who waited 10 YEARS LOL
But it’s worse than P3rd, FU, 3U, 4, and 4U.
At least Tri bothered to make brand new monsters instead of reused assets stapled to a skin.
>At least Tri bothered to make brand new monsters instead of reused assets
lmfao, why even bother lying? How can they possibly use 3ds assets like this isn't a next gen game built from the ground up?
Also
>comparing games that had a rerelease with content to the first version of the game
Getting desperate are we?
XV still only broke eve at 5 and that doesn't include the engine cost and all the shit from V13 times
SE needs to stop throwing so muhc time and money at games
help me this kind of pic used to make me so hard like in january now even actual porn doesn't make me feel anything (2D of course, I didn't get hard from 3D before)
Do nofap for a week
This is your brain on GTA
Doesn't include all the fags thought brought the season pass and DLC either, girls love the cast
>RDR2 will outsell all of these in a week
What's Japan's issue exactly?
Leviathans and Brute Wyverns were brand spankin new at the time. I ain’t lying about shit. Even the Jaggi trio have different skeletons from the Dromes. Every last monster in World is a rehash.
>muh first game of a generation
>completely ignores 4
>the game that had a metric fuckton if reused assets, but still added brand new monsters like Gore, Seltas, Nerscylla, Najarala, the Toads, and Seltas Queen
Stupid fucking Worldshitter.
>All of these games are sequels to well established franchises with big marketing/hype train
I just want more original games.
>RDR2 will have lootboxes
Guaranteed to sell less than GTAV on launch
Neck-beards are the opposite on normalfags.
Does 2+2=13 now or something come the fuck on.
>automata
>hype train
>nier and xenoblade
> sequels to well established franchises with big marketing/hype train
Retard.
>that doujin author releasing a xenoblade and BOTW doujin within the same Comiket
Absolute madman. They’re both pretty good too
>RDR2 will have lootboxes
Admit user, you honestly don't know whether this statement is true or not. But you hope it is, so you can have a reason to shit on a game that you've already made your mind you'll hate.
...
I fully admit to this. However, considering how much money shark cards make and how greedy Take Two Interactive is, I’m very cautious about RDR2.
BOTW will easily end up selling over 10million
good to see monster hunter , nier and xenoblade do well
i guess nintendo games would all count as japanese games though
A lot of people kept talking about Xenoblade 2 and especially Automata. Many didn't even know it's connection to Drakengard, you cannot deny that it didn't have hype behind them or how Xenoblade 2 was usually the main game in Nintendo directs.
cool
Those are cold official numbers, not thoughts.
braaaAAAARRfffft
>put in smash
ah yes the home of many dead Nintendo franchises where delusional Smash autists fight over who get dibs while the director either self serves or get push by Nintendo or his team to add shit barely people want
later dropped if the development was too late to readd the fighters of the series
Automata's "hype train" 100% came from Yoshida's ass designs. No one gives a fuck about this game other than thirsty fanservice faggots that do nothing but post in their own "2b thicc xd" containment threads.
Hype train implies people being excited for the game before release
...
>blunder
>when it's still getting lots of content, multiplayer, updates, etc
>when it broke development costs day one
>when it's the fastest selling game in the franchise
2 is inherently more weebish
...
Fuck off shill.
>XCX ~ 900k on worst selling console to date with 0 advertisements
>XC2 ~ 1 M on the best selling console to date with shilling and advertisments ever corner of Nintendo you take including Sup Forums
>Xenoblade 2 is more successful than all the previous entries of the franchise, guys I swear
really activates my almonds
>XC2 ~ 1 M on the best selling console to date with shilling and advertisments ever corner of Nintendo you take including Sup Forums
In less than a month.
There are no official numbers for XCX.
You sound upset Andrew.
...
Looking at Media Create sales for Japan, Xenoblade X was at 104,137 the last time it charted in the top 20 weekly game sales. Xenoblade 2 was at 181,254 at its last week in the top 20, which was about two weeks ago. It's also still holding in America, looking at NPD rankings for January, though those don't come with sales numbers.
>xcx
>900k
Source? If true let me remind you that xc2 sold a 1million in a month were Xcx barely scratched that in a year. And xc2 weeb as hell compared to it
There is no source. Nintendo only posts sales numbers for titles that sell over 1 million within a fiscal year, besides updating their top sellers list for each console. Xenoblade X did not make either.
And XC2 might pop back up. Last time it charted at 3158, this week the #20 was at 4200.
