you can predict in which week vita will sell again more than 3DS
The week it's discontinued?
Half joking there.

Ha, I guess that's kind of why I asked.Media Create threads
Contest of who will copy-paste faster new Media Create hw numbers
Random posters coming in when their favorite console / game sells good and bomb us with gifs and memes
News that were posted days before here reproduced from other sites and reposted again as new old news
Comgnet or amazon point and rank counting one by one since they represent entire Japan behavior
Usual jokers and fanboys with their annoying and repeated posts
When you have all these who needs mobile gaming information, it destroys the threads.

I feel the mobile market and the information we get about the performance of Japanese titles is big enough to warrant a own thread. I am interested in those posts and discussions but they end up getting overshadowed in MC threads most of time.Ha, I guess that's kind of why I asked.
If I want to start up a lengthy discussion about mobile I'll usually just go talk directly to someone like charlequin or duckroll.
I post observations in here under the assumption there are people who actually find this helpful or interesting. If people just want to talk about how based Splatoon's legs are or whether a 30K selling licensed games should be on 3DS or Vita, and feel like I'm being a jerk by flooding their desired conversation with mobile information, I'm just wasting both my and their time.
A question, do you post off-topic content in this thread because you seek attention that you fear not to get in a dedicated smartphone thread?

Mind, certainly not all discussions in here are like that, but I thought people would feel there was some added content this way. If that's not the case, I had no intention to intrude.

On JP PS Store it currently has 366 reviews and is No.1 in the Vita title ranking.Does anyone know how Adventures of Mana is doing on PSN and iTunes? It seems pretty dead on Google Play with under 5000 sales.
Admittedly I was being unfair there. My apologies. Thanks for the feedback.I just don't understand the attitude of exaggerating an argument in order to make the debate itself looking pointless.
Of course what you and other users are posting is interesting (I very often discussed about mobile trends in response of some of your posts); and is related to Japanese video game market sales trends. Therefore, of course you don't have to feel like you're being a jerk (hyperbole #1) - because you're often bringing valuable information. The point is not about you being a jerk in flooding "desired" conversations with mobile information - the point is: should these information belong to this thread, and why so? If the answer is yes - how should we adapt these threads to accomodate mobile information?

It's still a browser game, what did you expect it'd get from Famitsu?I know that Famitsu's scores mean nothing, but... So many delays for this?

An overall weekly Japan sales thread would be best I think. Keep everything together.
I believe it's unit sales since it says "売れ筋".Do you know if the ranking is by unit sales, views, or revenue?

Isn't that what this is? I mean we have charts for Famitsu, Media Create, Dengeki, Digital Download charts from Famitsu, preorder charts from COMG, photos of storefronts, etc.
Ah missed that LOL. Thanks.Oh it's by number of downloads, says so at the bottom in fine print. So yeah, units. Also explains the F2P ranking lol.
Yeah title is misleading. OP should be banned! >Why are these still called Media Create threads when there have been weeks where we only got Famitsu numbers for a while.

I like having the discussion stem out from the weekly sales. Maybe the name of the thread can change, but I enjoy the content as it is now.

*2016 Sales have week 53 2015 included because January 2015 was a 5 weeks month, and Jan 2016 a 4 weeks month. Meaning that the comparison is not fair. Still, from next time I'll erase it.
Now the comparison is 5 weeks vs 5 weeks.
The core of the game is the same, they just changed the interface and added a few things here and there.It's still a browser game? I thought it kept getting delayed because they were remaking it as an offline native vita game?
The content in the OP wouldn't change. I'd be cannibalizing the second and third posts in the thread to post all the other information we dump in the middle of the thread so it's also near the start.
Imagine if instead of my post, the second post looked like the below (non-exhaustive), and then the third post had mobile information like the Sega stuff.
Seems like a good idea to me. I find myself searching for YSO predictions too often. It would be helpful to have all that info compiled like that, and that monthly sales section would be nice.The content in the OP wouldn't change.

I'm not sure. The thread itself would still be weekly since it's driven by Media Create, even if it had some monthly data due to digital sales estimates being monthly and mobile being monthly and financial results being quarterly.Some of this would be great.
Also, how are months defined in Japan? Like, NPD has the 4-4-5 week counting, but is Japan different?
I'm rather open to a discussion of what sorts of things would go in those posts (and what sorts of things shouldn't), but the concept is more along the lines of "Here's the information people keep going back for, so let's put it somewhere more accessible."
Maybe individual store rankings don't make sense, but things like YSO predictions and shipment results do. Maybe we have expected first week shipments in there. Maybe next week's new releases.
Similarly I'm open to what sort of mobile things would and wouldn't make sense for a post 3.
The core of the game is the same, they just changed the interface and added a few things here and there.
Also, offline? I was under the impression it wasn't. Is it really offline?
Shipments and other official figures (e.g. MC data about monthly sales) = yes
Rakuten, Tsutaya, YSO = no (reason is that they serve the purpose of helping a discussion about sales before official data came out - they lose any meaning once the data are out).
I guess my main thoughts on this would be:
1.) I honestly don't think there's enough interest to sustain a Japanese mobile industry discussion thread. The games are overwhelmingly exclusive to Japan, and much of the writing about them is in Japanese. While they have profound impacts on Japanese publishers and their behavior (which I do feel is fundamentally relevant to a dedicated games discussion), it's not something your average poster even in salesage spends a lot of time thinking about. This may be different at some point in the future, but regardless of intents, the effective question is "Do you want Japanese mobile discussion in Media Create or do you want it nowhere?" If the answer is ultimately "I don't like mobile games and want to stop hearing about them," I am willing to stop.
