[QUOTE="DementedDragon"]VF = Software.NotThat_basic
Your point?
Point is you posted hardware sales and VF5 is software. So you FAIL!!!!! Would you like to kick yourself in the ass now??You listed hardware sales, what does that have to do with VF5?

Because of the numerous threads about how great VF5 was selling and that it was #1 on the sales charts, I thought it would be appropriate to splash a little cold water on the fanboys...

The point that seems to be escaping you is that I purposely posted that number for the Sony fanboys who were proclaiming that VF5 was a success because it was #1 on the sales charts...

Well they meant software, we all know Nintendo is still the dominant force in Japan. And they were only trying to fire back at others who said the game is doing poorly in Japan.
I can understand if you were trying to make a point that VF5 isn't a system seller, it's clearly true based on those hardware sales.

I know what they meant, but instead of relying on some 'ranking chart' that they kept referring to, I figure actual numbers might be a better view of reality, no?[QUOTE="BlackDianWei"]Point is you posted hardware sales and VF5 is software.

What sony fanboys?? got any names?? VF5 is #1 on the japan game charts is pretty good. I would understand if your were to post this and VF5 was #5 or something.What sony fanboys?? got any names??

There are at least two threads, on this very page, where they claim VF5 was a success because it was #1 on a sales ranking chart... ...and, if you think 1st week sales of 50k for a game is a success, you're sadly mistaken.

You do realize DOA4 sold 60,000 copies with only 80k 360's sold over there. VF5 sold 49.5k copies with 670k PS3's sold.mythrol
That was going to be the point I made to the next poster that tried to suggest 50k 1st week sales for VF5 is good...
You do realize DOA4 sold 60,000 copies with only 80k 360's sold over there. VF5 sold 49.5k copies with 670k PS3's sold. Why are you trying to make it sound like "VF5 wasn't far off". It basically got pimped by DOA4.mythrol
80K vs. 670K, which do you think has the highest potential to sell more?
In Japan:
VF5 = 49,500 WK#1 (675,000 PS3s)
DOA4 =60,000 WK#1 (80,000 360s)

So the Japanese seem to love DOA4 more than VF5............. hmmmmmmmmmmm. ... that cant be good for the PS3.

Imagine how much they'd sell to 345,000 users in Japan. 258,750 copies in one week? That would be a Japanese record no?In Japan:

In it's first week, DOA4 but not by a landslide.
Twice as much (by comparison of popularity) is not a landslide?[QUOTE="XtinctionAgenda"]Twice as much (by comparison of popularity) is not a landslide?DementedDragon
49K X 2 = 60K?
49/675 = 1 of 14
60/80 = 3 of 4... owners
It's more than twice. Didn't you learn about ratios in math class?49/675 = 1 of 14

We're talking software exclusively, not console owners.

We're talking software exclusively, not console owners.
DOA4 sold to 3 out of 4 of all Japanese Xbox360 owners in its first week.
VF5 sold to only one out of every 14 Japanese PS3 owners in its first week.
That's a landslide victory for DOA4.
What is software exclusivity?VF5 flopped in sales. Less than 50k in the first week? Barely outsold Wii Sports which has been on the charts for 11 weeks now.
VF4 didn't do too well either, but it sold around half million in Japan. VF5 doesn't even look like it's going to come close to 200k in Japan. VF5 spiked the sales of PS3 alright....... roughly 10,000 units more than what it normally sells, just pathetic.
The scary thing is I acutally can't think of more than 5 PS3 games this year that's any bigger than VF5 in Japan. :? Things look really bad for PS3 in Japan, eventhough some retailers already cut the price on their PS3.
Wii beats PS3 by a wide margin with no new game released while PS3 gets a supposedly big game.

Nah they are fractions not ratios, ratios would be
1:13
3:1
It's more than twice. Didn't you learn about ratios in math class?In other words in comparison to user base vf5 isn't doing that well...but why is this surprising? We knew it would be a niche seller from the start.In Japan:
VF5 = 49,500 WK#1 (675,000 PS3s)
