Gaming sales in Japan decreased following the holidays
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
New information from sales tracker Media Create indicates that gaming sales in Japan decreased during the second week of January, which is generally designated as the end of the “holiday season”.
As Siliconera points out, children usually spend their New Year’s money during January’s first week. This is accompanied by a drop in hardware and software sales in later weeks.
As expected, software sales lowered to 62.91 percent compared to the same period in January 2014. 3DS led the market in terms of holiday software sales, and the industry as a whole was affected when numbers for the portable dropped. There were also no significant titles during the second week of January. Kirby Triple Deluxe debuted last January and sold 214,000 copies in its first week.

Edea to return as one of the main characters for Bravely Second
Posted on 10 years ago by Kirara Koneko(@KiraraKoneko) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 2 Comments
In the recent Bravely Second live-stream we learned that Edea will be returning in the upcoming title, Bravely Second.
Now in this week’s issue of Famitsu we see a glimpse of what she will look like as well as some additional details about how she has evolved.
She appears to have grown up slightly as the artwork is showing her as being a little older.
Edea is now the leader of the Imperial Guard Knights, and will now be one of the main characters.
It is unknown at this time if she will be a completely playable character this time, she is said to be returning to “judge” the Asterisk holders from the previous game.
Famitsu also revealed that there will be a new “Barter Sub Scenario System”.
There will be additional information about the Patissier job in next week’s issue.
