Cause of Tierkreis' Sales

Post by Mio »

Hi so this thread is about the cause of Tierkreis' sales

whether it flopped or boomed, this thread is to discuss why

Let me start with teh figures for that Day 1 sales
http://pspupdates.qj.net/Dissidia-sells-350-000-at-Day-1-in-Japan/pg/49/aid/127466 wrote:Gundam Musou 2 (PS3) 106,000
Gundam Musou 2 (PS2) 50,000
Gundam Musou 2 (Xbox 360) 14,000
Tales of Hearts (Anime Movie Edition) (DS) 107,000
Tales of Hearts (CG Movie Edition) (DS) 14,000
Fate/Unlimited Codes (PS2) 51,000
Gensou Suikoden Tierkreis (DS) 40,000
Fable II (Xbox 360) 30,000
Ragnarok Online DS (DS) 28,000
Momotarou Dentetsu: 20-Shuunen (DS) 28,000
Karaoke Joysound Wii (Wii) 24,000
I would like to point out that amongst the DS releases that day, Tierkreis is second to Tales of Hearts

is it prolly because PSP overshadows Nintendo DS?

would you think if Tierkreis was released in PSP, it could've done better?

No, worse. Dissidia would have totally overshadowed it.

I'm waiting for an overview of the week's total sale... a single day isn't very much-telling.

I'm not really sure what the difference is between this thread and the one KFCrispy started:

http://www.suikosource.com/phpBB3/viewt ... 57&t=10392

You're wondering if its been a success due to sales and so is he. If I've missed something let me know, otherwise I'll lock this shortly as being a duplicate.

i thought that KFCrispy's thread is whether it succeeded or not

my thread is about why

platform, competition, timing, etc...

I'm sorry, i have all these questions so i decided to make a thread for it

you can lock this if this really is a duplicate

Yeah, his is not only if it is, but why or why not. Feel free to post there, you won't be taking it off topic with anything similar to your first post.
