And the FF13 sales nosedive, as expected though.

Same percentage drop as the PS2 titles from first to second week. FF games are going to be more front loaded of course, though it seems like it'll make it to 2 million in Japan which is still a great number.

Yeah, but that was expected, I figure it'll top out at 3mil unless the negative review press it's getting now make a hit. I mean most of this is coming from the japanese players who are knocking it.

Even the PS2 Final Fantasys never reached 3 million (or even 2.5) though, and that was with a larger userbase. Anyhow, this week's numbers:

You know when your latest and greatest handheld (PSP Go) doesn't even make 10k over the 2 busiest weeks of the year (dec 21 - jan 3), and barely reaches 13k over the entire month of December, you had better start drawing out recovery plans or scrappage plans. The people of Japan have spoken with their wallets - and they're simply not that interested. Even the 360 is beating it for pete's sake.

They were put in place before the thing even came out - High price. Don't take a loss on the device then if it flops, or makes a meagre profit, not much harm done.

That's the reason it launched so expensively, it was such a gamble, with it being digital only, and the fact it's going on to prove people want hacked PSPs for free games. Sony were even giving away 4 free full PSP gamers to Go buyers.

man the Wii is smoking. Its funny to because we traded in our Wii for an Xbox 360 because my kids said they didn't want the Wii. (this was when the Wii first came out too so we had no problems getting a great trade in value) but just yesterday we were at GameStop buying NFS:Shift for my son and my wife said "You know we really need to get a Wii again. They have some really good games for it now" :sigh:

And FF13 is off the top 10 list. Guess it'll be hard to pull 2.5mil. I find it kinda odd that each FF posted above has sold in that 2-2.5Mil range in Japan. It's like the same 2m FF fans are the ones who buy the new game every time. The number doesn't grow or really shrink that much. Kinda odd.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
