Well its nice to see FFXV and KHIII are really wanted. I'm surprised that Smash 3DS is beating Smash Wii U in popularity though, given that there's a good chance Smash Wii U is probably gonna be the better version.

I'm incredibly disappointed that Smash Bros U isn't at the top.

Whoo! Monster Hunter!

It's simply that more people own 3DS consoles. It shouldn't be that surprising.

Oh my god. KH3 went down. Lol.

They're up every week.

Well, yeah, there's a lot more we know about Smash Bros and Pokemon than KHIII. If Square would bother to build the hype, then maybe it would have a shot.

Nomura and Shinji like to announce things before they're ready.

And that's a horrible business model.

Agreed. Announcing Versus XIII in 2006 was stupid. You don't annouce a game that's just begun development when most of the team is working on other projects.

Seeing Bravely Second being on the list made me very happy. i can't wait for Bravely Second

Not surprised MH4 is at the top of that list. Japan loves Monster Hunter so much...

Highly satisfying, yet predictable. Monster Hunter and Warriors games are big shots in Japan, so it's painfully obvious they'd be topping off the list.

Wow, Monster Hunter 4, oh japan... you just... 

Persona 5 bossing it.
