Starwolf_UK Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 The data is here and I used the translation from here 39th best selling game in Japan. Not bad though the fact Mario Party 8 bearly sold more makes me feel bad. Then again the fact Mario Party 8 is still selling well is why we won't get Mario Party 9 for a while...Fire Emblem on the other hand has done a typical taper off (about 70% of its sales came from the first month). So how does it compare to other Fire Emblem games? Well Blazing Sword, Sword of Seals, Geneology of the Holy war and Mystery of the Emblem are the only ones it hasn't outsold (Disclaimer: Numbers for the Famicom games are unknown, also unknown is virtual console sales, consider most of Shadow Dragon is on the VC already...) You could say it is getting itself out of a hole but is the huge DS ownership the reason? For anyone wanting Europe numbers, I'm sorry we don't get numbers. The closest we get is the ELPSA awards which can give us a rough figure of how a game has done...in the UK only and also the lowest teir is 100,000 so we won't be hearing from FE :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini-Saga Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Good to know that is Selling :D I hope it does good on USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) Not bad : ) According to the TRS lawsuit (of all things, lol) the missing figures are: (イ) ファイアーエムブレム・シリーズの販売本数をみると、暗黒竜と光の剣が３２万９０８７本、外伝が３２万４６９９本、紋章の謎が７７万６３３８本、聖戦の系譜が４９万８２１６本、トラキアが１０万６１０８本、合計２０３万４４４８本という売れ行きを示している。ファイアーエムブレム・シリーズは、ＳＲＰＧ分野に属し、その需要者は、ＲＰＧのユーザーの１０分の１である。こうした点に鑑みると、控訴人ゲームの販売本数は周知性又は著名性を獲得するのに十分な数の販売本数というべきである。 FE1: 329,087 FE2: 324,699 FE3: 776,338 Edited January 21, 2009 by VincentASM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Oh wow. The first two sold a hell of a lot more than I had guessed. Also, lol @ FE3 selling over 776,000 copies. maybe FE5 was a reference to this? XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwolf_UK Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 maybe FE5 was a reference to this? Probably given the amount of problems assuming that FE5 started in the year 776 caused (I got that right didn't I? I know there are timeline issues...though I don't know if its like the Radiant dawn 3 years after path of radiance when its 3 years after the start of path of radiance...)

Ike-Mike Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 (though I don't know if its like the Radiant dawn 3 years after path of radiance when its 3 years after the start of path of radiance...)Really? Where'd you get that from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) In the ending of FE9, it states the date as spring of the year 646. The whole war lasted a year, so it was the year 645 when it started (which is confirmed by the Japanese official site). Meanwhile in Chapter 4 of FE10, it states the date as early summer of 648.

Gemini-Saga Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) ... I hope we get an FE in the Year of 3020 or something like this (like 4652) Edited January 23, 2009 by Gemini-Saga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
