We are also waiting for them to achieve more sales so that we can invest more. (Regarding Wii U)

Because the problem we have with next-gen now here, is that we are seeing less games that are on next-gen and last-gen consoles.

There it is, less games for this gen. AAA is shrinking.

PS4 owner since launch. No games yet. Plenty of AAA content, no compelling need to buy.

I am currently enjoying a Need for Speed game on the PS3, I am no automatic spurner of "big games," but in the action adventure/ FPS category of AAA I have no interest, just as I have no interest in the next Marvel movie. I want experiences that entertain at least and inform/ transform my understanding of gaming at most.

I don't see how he is saying less games for this gen....he is saying less for Nintendo. And less cross gen games going forward.

So far its no different than any transition. PS2 launched in late 2000, and didn't have shit until late 2001 when it suddenly got an onslaught of killer games.

This gen I think developers were caught in a weird place too, because last gen lasted WAY TOO LONG. They forgot how to transition.

No Guillemot is talking about next gen PS4/XB1 generation clearly.

"Because the problem we have with next-gen now here, is that we are seeing less games that are on next-gen and last-gen consoles."

If they were AAA they would be compelling to buy. Nyaa

My god FFXIV looks fantastic on PS4! 1080p and it's "butta smooth" as Leo said. It makes the PS3 version look like a jaggie, slow-running dog turd in comparison.

Actually re-reading it, I agree too.

There are fewer AAA though, this is factual and we've heard it from numourous sources, including Ubisoft, Capcom, Epic Games and Blezinski.

Mario Kart 8 Claims Top Spot in Japanese Charts, Wii U Remains as Number One Home Console

The PlayStation Vita has crept ahead of Wii U in Japan as the momentum gained from the release of Mario Kart 8 has started to wear off.

The latest Famitsu data shows that Nintendo’s machine sold 10,366 units in the week ending June 15th. That’s down from 12,576 units last week and 19,031 units the week before, when Mario Kart 8 hit the market (shown in red below).

Sales are now below the 13,037 unit peak seen in the week ending April 2nd – that’s the week all hardware saw a jump in sales ahead of a Japanese VAT increase.

Mario Kart 8 remains the best-selling game of the week, but that isn’t enough to stop Vita creeping ahead of Wii U again. Nintendo will be anxious that the decline doesn’t continue, and keen to avoid a slip to mid-April levels.

Here’s a look at the machine’s Japanese sales throughout April and May:

Here’s the hardware top ten for the period between June 9th-June 15th:

1. Nintendo 3DS LL – 24,135

2. PS Vita – 12,850

3. Wii U – 10,366

4. PS4 – 7,351

5. PS3 – 6,832

6. Nintendo 3DS – 5,390

7. PSP – 2,647

8. PS Vita TV – 1,041

9. Xbox 360 – 131

And here’s the software Top 10:

1. Mario Kart 8 (Wii U) Nintendo – 41,195

2. Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth (3DS) Atlus – 31,166

3. Yokai Watch (Level Five) 3DS – 27,884

4. The Legend of Heroes: Ao no Kiseki Evolution (Vita) Kadokawa Games – 26,488 (New)

5. One Piece: Unlimited World R (PS3) Bandai Namco – 18,479 (New)

6. Pro Evolution Soccer 2014: Aoki Samurai no Chosen (PS3) Konami – 16,705

7. Thief (PS4) Square Enix – 9,505 (New)

8. One Piece: Unlimited World R (Vita) Bandai
