Damn those Persona 3 numbers are rough. I bet it won't even do 250k worldwide without Switch. Sad times for Atlus and Sega.

Persona 4, Persona 4 the Animé, Persona 4 the Golden, Persona 4 Arena, Persona Q and Persona 4 the Golden Animé walked so future Persona could run~ 🤪

I understand you are trolling, but what's your point exactly - that the game would've done worse if it was also on Switch? That the game was successful without a Switch version so it isn't necesarry?
 
Terrible performance for Persona 3 Reload in Japan, but that's simply been the lot of Playstation releases for the past few years. At least overseas markets did some heavy lifting.

Hmm, I suppose Switch will stabilize at around 40,000 a week until a new major release hits. Which isn't a bad place to be at, all things considered.

Can’t wait for someone to make a video about: Will Atlus Westernize Persona? 🤣

At that pace, it would sell 2 million in Japan in a year (a rough estimation)
 
I gave up making sense of PS5 hardware, but definitely expected better with Persona 3 Reload.
 
FWIW, original original P3 on PS2 started at 127K on a userbase of 18+ million. Though I recognize the series is in a very different place today.

pretty good hold for switch. ps5 HW and SW continues to be dumbfounding; will be interesting to see what FFVIIR week is like.

You answered yourself. There's no point, just trolling.
 
Persona 3 Reload sales feel like a harbinger of how FF VII R-2 is going to look in a couple weeks 😬

It's also interesting looking at the differences in the PS4 vs PS5 numbers for LAD8 and P3R. I'm wondering if PS4 buyers are taking longer to pick things up? It's curious that LAD 8 is almost a 50-50 split after a couple weeks while P3R PS5 has a 30k unit lead at launch.

I suspect that's the plan. Switch is oversaturated with JRPGs right now. Sega can afford to wait 6-9 months and drop the game on Switch 2 when there's going to be a lot less competition for lengthy RPG to play on your new kit, much like what happened with P4 Golden on the Vita.

It’s the official Atlus account.

How do we know that's the real account? The chart in the OT says "Atlas" not "Atlus". That Xit seems sus. 🙃

How were Golden's sales in JP vs. WW? I've always thought Golden was the inflection point and P5 blew up because of the audience that Golden cultivated.

This is a very good point!

There is a possibility, as of today, that FF7 Rebirth will open at or lower than 16.

I’d like to be proven wrong, but I don’t think Rebirth will do equal or worse than FFXVI

Overall I think it will do better, it should its FF7, but opening numbers on famitsu are currently trending a bit below FF16. Now that the demo is out, it should bolster things but we shall see on March 7th

This makes sense. It's a follow-up to a game that was some level of divisive. You're naturally going to lose some of the audience in the transition because of that and it's a sequel.

Same thing happened with BotW -> TotK.

Sony won't care. They've essentially ceded Japan as somewhere not as worth the focus as the western markets. They'll sell what they can there, but all business decisions will primarily be made with other markets in mind.

I still think this is going to hurt them in the long run, particularly with the local third party developers. Gonna be hard to attract interest from local developers to work on games for Sony’s platforms if no one wants to own them.

given how long games take and how powerful the PS5 is, I don't think PS5 is dying anytime soon. even after the PS6

This. Somewhat related, I still find the whole discussion about a PS5 Pro this year to be incredibly weird. It used to be that by the 4th year you start to hear rumblings of a new system not a hardware refresh.

PS5 is going to be a long haul.

Japanese developers will stay as long as there is a market as we currently see w/PS4. If PS6 sw struggles as hard or worse then PS5 will be around for a long time.

you are right that it's blatantly obvious they've abandoned japan as a market with the obvious western focus and the price hike but lots of people are still paddling in the nile river with regards to sony's japanese strategy. "fastest selling ps console since the ps2" will get thrown around as a defense as the software numbers worsen and the switch 2 wipes out any chance of a comeback. don't think we'll see a full blown pullout just a moribund console that exists for the sake of appearances.
