...but TLOU outsold HW :\

HW sold double in its first week...

it sold better than last of us. no problem.

My point remains,TLOU outsold HW for the week

Looks like it's 3DS > PS4 > commoners as far as games go.

And Japan loves handhelds confirmed to the max.

and my point also remains...so now what? :\

Well... The WiiU has a higher install base, so there are more potential customers.

im sure the sheep king could use some backup once and a while.

hyrule warriors is no.6 lol so how the balls has it beaten tlou

Hyrule is how I'd like to rule my kingdom someday.

not too bright ey?

You're a terrible sheep.

@KBFloYd: but TLOU Will outsell HW 6 to one world wide so why does it matter?

this is japan sales bro...here is nothing but nintendomination.

if you want playstation continuation please head to NPD

thank you for your cooperation

@KBFloYd: Or anywhere in the world that's not Japan.

sure if you got the sales charts...go for it.

learn to read what u write. your thread title mentions 'sales aug18-aug24' and your chart has tlou higher than hw for this period so i ask again how the balls has it beaten tlou?

lmao, love the added touch with the girl pic.

you still cant figure it out? maybe when you become a junior...thats when advanced adding and subtracting comes into play.

haha yep just as i thought, u have nothing. tlou outsold hw during this period, its a fact. now run along and watch anime porn or something ninty fans do

Hyrule Warriors sales drop off is massive for a game that's just launched last week. And you should compare original TLOU sales to Hyrule Warriors as it's more fair.

According to sales figure details revealed by Media Create, The Last of Us sold 117,465 copies in Japan during launch week.

http://www.gamepur.com/news/11300-last-us-japan-sales-figure-are-impressive.html

So there you have it - a brand new Western IP outsold Hyrule Warriors, an insular Japanese game, in its launch week.

Nice to see the WiiU doing better even if it is a little or only in Japan.

we used to have votes on this stuff when systemwars was packed. he won sheep king every year. i wasnt even mentioned :(

as for me being lost...i actually feel that i see the light.

we are in a new gen now....no use bringing up last gen numbers.

if anything it says Last of US sold more than Hyrule Warriors did for the week, total sales though Hyrule Warriros has more, but it has been out longer

Wii U though is selling okay, not great but okay, better than PS4 anyways

oh so you're not on my side either...whatever

Sure, delude yourself all you want, but it won't change the fact Hyrule Warriors is selling horribly - 84k to just 15k in only a WEEK after launch! You can keep bragging how a Western game sold poorly in Japan though.

I don't even know what thread I4m in.

ps4 300k to 5k in a week...

It's a fashion trend in Japan.

Japan, producing 85% of the worlds weird shit.

Don't know what side your on but better articulation of what you mean might be better. For instance, if you wanted to really spin numbers, a better approach would be to compare first week sales of Hyrule Warriors to first week sales of Last of Us Remastered, then you could claim Hyrule Warriors did better, even add the time of Hyrule Warriors released coincided with nation holidays that typical game sales are much lower, and yet still outperformed Last of Us Remastered... but I'm not saying that, but you could have. Better than just saying "Hyrule Warriors > Last of User" and then post latest week of data that shows otherwise. Others could argue Hyrule Warriors is more tailored to a Japanese market while Last of Us is more tailored to a Western market, and all things considered it did pretty good first week in Japan.

Anyhow, and I actually have Hyrule Warriors pre-ordered myself, can't wait. Haven't played Last of Us yet and considering I"d wait until I picked up a PS4 just to play the best version.

Not saying you're wrong but the last point you made is not really good since there is a massive difference between the current Wii U install base in Japan and the PS3 install base in Japan during the launch of TLOU. Again, you're right but.. there's a massive difference in install bases so it's not necessarily indicative of a greater interest in TLOU than HW.

PS3 beats Wii60 once again.

LMAO

Quite surprised on the sales of Youkai Watch 2.
