Well atleast it did well.

I don't get it.
Both those numbers are bad, very bad.

>>336348130
Normies still don't know the difference between the Wii and the Wii U (and probably don't care).

Everyone else knows the NX is right around the corner.

Plus, Starfox was shit.

All in all it sold pretty well considering.

this just proves that the people on /v/ that wants mascot games like R&C, J&D, Sonic, CB,SF, CR are autistic manchildren that really needs to get on with their lives and grow up or just full embrace their furfaggotry

Not to mention

Still I'm sorry that R&C flopped, if the movie bombed even harder I guess the series is finished.

>Normies still don't know the difference between the Wii and the Wii U (and probably don't care).

That's not really it. Nintendo's entire problem is that kids aren't growing up with Nintendo anymore so they're not clinging to nostalgia. I'd bet a huge chunk of Nintendo sales come from people who are still trying to recreate their childhood experience through video games. New players don't really care about Nintendo because there's so many other options these days.
>>
>>336349251
hopefully the movie, being composed almost entirely of cutscenes from the game didn't cost too much.
>>
>>336349584
There's a movie? When did that come out?
>>
>>336349584
>Still I'm sorry that R&C flopped

It did? I was under the impression game did alright, because it's not like an action adventure/performer is going to sell millions in this day and age. Movie tanked like a motherfucker, though.
>>
>>336348130
this isn't gonna be good for R&C at all.
>>
>>336349398
ratchet and clank broke the franchise sales record and is top of charts in multiple areas

also

people with a ps4 actually have other games to play. wii u is a desert and splatoon was the last meal those poor bastards had.
>>
>>336349720

It broke release sales records held by ACiT three-fold. The movie bombed but the game is doing fine.
>>

It's literally the fastest selling game in the franchise so far, what are you talking about?

How's this bad for Star Fox? Ratchet & Clank's total sales are 581,866, after selling 326,547 in its second week.

That's means Ratchet & Clank sold 255,319 in week one, or fewer than Star Fox: Zero's opening of 267,695.
>>
>>336349861
Second week. Has a total of 581,866 sales.
>>
>>336350008
it also sold more in the second week than in its first. which is already weird by console release standards.
>>
>>336350308
The movie.
>>
>>336349861

It has like 600.000 sales you dumb fuck,it's doing better than second son did in it's second week
>>
>>336348130
Star Fox is selling way too much for such a shit game.
>>
>>336350308

Word of mouth, game is top tier
>>
>>336350436
Don't insult me for such a mistake. Nothing in the thread up to that point said anything about it being weekly sales
>>
Hearing about R&C being the fast selling ever, I thought it already did a million or something. But 580k? That's nothing. Of course SF0 was gonna flop, no one cares about rail shooters in 2016, especially if they cost $60, what the fuck was Nintendo thinking?
>>
Why buy Star Fox Zero when you can pirate it for free?
>>
>>336350602
Why play it when you could avoid shitty games altogether?
>>
>>336350602
Why buy anything when you can steal it?
>>
That's actually kind of bad for Rachet and Clank considering it's 20 dollars cheaper, had more advertising, had a big budget movie tie-in, and is on a system with with more than 35 million users while the Wii-U has around 14 million.

It should completely have more sales than Starfox but it's only decently ahead of it. It surprises the hell out of me that these games are having a hard time selling on the PS4. I want to know what happened to the people who bought those kinds of games on the PS2 went.
>>
>>336350535
It's all relative, anon. Action platformers never have and never will turn millions in their launch period.
>>
>>336350703
PC has over a billion users yet the top selling PC games are doing worse than consoles.
>>
>>336350703
>I want to know what happened to the people who bought those kinds of games on the PS2 went.
They grew up and moved on to generic AAA open world cinematic fps shit.
>>
>>336350703
PS4 exclusives don't really sell.
Bloodborne and Killzone combined sold less than a kart racing game
>>
>>336350840
UC4 is gonna sell millions.
>>
>>336350914
It's probably going to sell as much as MK8, probably just a bit more, with 10 times the budget.

It's ahead of Quest for Booty already. Don't expect another movie though, that actually did bad.
>>
>>336350840
>PS4 exclusives don't really sell.

Because no PS4 exclusive so far has really been that mainstream must-have game to grab everyone by the balls. Bloodborne, for all the hype and word of mouth it gets online, is still niche at its core by design, for example.
>>
>>336350703
PS4 sells so well solely because of the 2K FIFA COD crowd

Who even buys Nintendo games anymore? Some of them are literally rehashes of the same thing over and over again and they have another console with the Wii U barely 4 years in the market.

Why would you support a company like that?
>>
>>336349827
Xenoblade came after Splatoon.
However after that I haven't bought a single newer WiiU game

how did xenoblade chronicles x do sales-wise anyway?

cool, now I can finally play Splatoon

oh you silly goose
>>
>>336348890
By WiiU standards the acceptable.
By PS4 standards selling less than 2m is unacceptable.

Just look at the install base/bought games ratio.
>>
>>336352000
VgChartz doesn't count digital sales.

>>336352252

only thing that determines that is development budget

Wew lad
>>
>>336352504
Shows how desperate Wii U owners are for games if the only notable game release this year is a low budget mobile game port.
>>
>>336352203
But PS4 does do digital.

Digital sales of R&C are probably higher than physical.
>>
>>336351231
this well be the Bloodborne killer, game is fan fucking tastic
>>
>>336352439
Then the differences are even greater.

>>336352789
Jesus, I don't even like BB that much, but NiOh was absolutelly terrible and inferior in every way to even Lord of the Fallen
>>
>>336352658
It actually shows the shit taste of PS4 users actually, since CoD is the best selling game on it.
>>
>>336350801
But most PC's are a spreadsheet machine. This is the only gen we are seeing a decent PC gamerbase after early 90s, that too because quite a few console owners got them, I really doubt there will be a large no. of good gaming PCs.

Why does every game Platinum work on sell like complete shit?
>>
>>336350308
The game was delayed nearly 2 weeks in Europe thanks to FIGS faggots not being able to read English.
>>
>>336352916
Most console users are normies anon, who play CoD with friends and mainstream games, with a few niche games on side, it this wasn't the case BB wouldn't be 32nd highest selling game on PS4
Just because weebs on PS4 play left of centre games doesn't mean that's the console's main audience.
>>
>>336348130

Miyamoto was right. Nobody cares about Starfox. It was just a loud minority.
>>
>>336353332
Are there official numbers for Bayo2?
VGchartz says it sold 1 million but I find it hard to believe.
>>
>>336353676
Yeah I'm bet they're gonna say the same when FedForce and Color Trash flop too.
It's not like people want good games or anything.

Love this meme.

B-B-BUT MUHHH INSTALL BASE!!!!

R&C is going into the bin, expect something from the devs saying "It's too childish, we need to focus on more cinematic experiences."

Still gets me mad that this was said about Jak.
>>
>>336353564
That's a splendid way to miss the point but it still doesn't justify the shit taste of the average ps4 user, sorry.
>>
>>336352252
Ratchet and Clank came out the same day as Dark Souls 3
>>
>>336355342
>most successful R&C ever

It's not going anywhere, pal.

Don't respond to the bait. This shit doesn't even count digital sales.
>>
>>336351029
I feel like the movie was just an advertisement for the game. Movie budget was only 20M so it wasn't even that hard of a flop and the game is now on pace to outsell every other game in the series in a few weeks.

With the movie out R&C is now more widely known especially to a new gen of kids and the franchise is secured for another 5 years.
>>
>>336355674
If nintendo went 3rd party they'd be the best 3rd party publisher for sure.
