PS4 Slim + P5 domination! Congrats to the best selling Persona game in the series(first week). Nice PS4 increase for PES and selling better overall compared to the last release.

Slim sold 4k below my expectations. Close enough.

The road to outselling the Wii U is back on track as I expected the PS4 to outsell it during the week XV was originally suppose to release.

Due to my excitement for P5, I forgot to mention that the PS4 outsold Xbox One's lifetime sales this week.

No real surprise that Persona is number 1 this week. I'm sad I have to wait until February to play it!

Persona 5 is really becoming the life of the party with its estimated combination of 338,000 copies! Smile

In Geese Howard's words I would say:

Persona 5 is out in Japan. I gotta start looking at those playthrough vids so I can see this game in action. Oh gotta check on the new soundtrack if there is one. Woot!

I cannot wait until this game comes out. This will be our FIRST 'Persona' game in the collection. Now Sony, can you release the others on discs?

I'm pretty sure Sony has no control over how Atlus releases their games.

What exactly are you talking about? Every "Persona" game has been released on discs, Persona 1 and 2 on the ps1, 3,4 and FES on the ps2, and 1 and 2 on the vita.

I really thought there'd be more sales for P5 on PS3. I know it's an older console now, but look at Winning Eleven, the PS3 version sold half what the PS4 version sold, but P5 on PS4 sold substantially more than the PS3 version. Just seems unusual to me knowing how the Japanese latch onto older consoles. I guess the generations are starting to shift.
