You've made that quite apparent :p

But yeah not many JRPGs perform like this, looking at what is announced aside from Squares big guns I think that only Persona 5 and Ni No Kuni 2 will have better launch months in the US. At least on home console. Maybe Dragon Quest XI, who knows.

I think it helps that it was the only holiday title they had. Still good for the game.  Will it cross a million?  Legs probably won't be the best.  

[Cute Pikachu]

Yeah I guess I'll switch to another game  
Have you seen that Fallout 4?
200k plus opening months for JRPG's this gen in my opinion.
XCX
FF15
FF7R
KH3
NNK2(I hope this shot does well this is why I'm buying a ps4)
Scalebound? (

Spoiler for Hidden:

nah Xbox doesn't like jrpgs

)

That's all I see this gen.
DQ11 will probably do at most 150k first month or something(hope I'm wrong).

[DerNebel]

Man UC4 is still 6th on Amazon, only behind the Division which is probably boosted a lot by the Beta coming soon. UC4 can't come soon enough, this game will hit like a dang truck. Lol

[Cute Pikachu]

HAHAHA HAHAHA
At those chartz numbers
PSV doing that we'll in EU and wii u doing better this year HAHAHA no.
XBO and PS4 numbers are stupid too.

CALL OF DUTY STILL KING

18/Jan/2016
Two weeks in and 2016 is still being bossed by 'Call of Duty: Black Ops III' (-24%) which holds on to No1 for what is now six weeks in succession – the longest unbroken run in the All Formats Chart since 'FIFA 15' also managed six weeks in 2014.

'FIFA 16' (-45%) slips one place to No3, replaced in second spot by 'Grand Theft Auto V' (-16%), which jumps up two places to its highest position since W34 last year. 'Star Wars Battlefront' (-45%) drops one place to No4, staying ahead of 'Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Siege' (-24%) which sneaks up one place to No5. With no new titles out this week, familiar games jostle for position within the Top 10. 'Just Cause 3' (-24%) climbs two places to No6, while 'WWE 2K16' (-30%) is a non-mover at No7. 'Fallout 4' (-65%) drops out of the Top 5 for the first time, falling from No5 to No8, while 'Lego Jurassic World' (-21%) and 'Minecraft: Xbox Edition' (-17%) both find themselves back in the Top 10, up to No's 9 and 10 respectively. 'Assassin's Creed: Syndicate' ( -72%) is not so lucky, crashing out of the Top 10 from No9 to No24.

What? You don't think TPHD outpre-ordered the rest of the top 10 on the charts with room to spare in the week ending january 2nd? Are you a hater or what? Lol

[Xbro]

Did you see the preorder chart? I'm starting to think they are just deliberately fudgy with people.

The preorder chart has always been RNG based on how many threads there are on that game. It's pretty apparent.
