@somnambulance true the japan economy is bad but when the new zelda game arrive snot comparing the two the sales will be off the charts.. even for a 2d zelda game. but sony has had games that sold better then what astrobot even the meh visions of mana sold 30 thousand physical sales first week in japan recently
i expected between 50-100 thousand copies of astro bot to be sold in japan where a lot of nintendo fans love the game but only 12k physical sales that is as bad as it can get..
maybe ps fans don't care about kid 3d platform games and only care for live service and story driven games like god of war or horizon looks that way to me..
buying a pc instead of the ps5 pro is apple vs oranges.. there is no comparison one is console gaming other pc.. only xbox fans would say such a thing..
a large percentage of ps5 sold in japan did not remain in japan many were bought by chinese gamers who shipped them to china to avoid region lockout...
the footage we saw in the direct and especially in the japanese direct was switch footage seems this game is being built and optimized for the nintendo switch by falcom itself..
