Will nmb sales be better compared to Nogizaka46? What's the difference between both gimmick?

 

NMB has more events than any group. And their limited editions can sometimes include additional stuffs which can boost their Soundscan to 100k+, else their Soundscan is at 80k+.
But Nogizaka46 sells more than NMB, simply because Nogi members can sell more, while in NMB's case, only SayaMilky can sell out the events.
Nogi also has better Soundscan than NMB.

 

NMB48's 12th Single (5th Day Sales)
Day 5: 3,948 (Total: 364,047) (2nd)

 

Yea, I agree, song wise, I think prefer Durian more than DLB, but DLB had those Nana feels lol~~ DLB did really well tho, digitally and physically....Durian is doing average for physical and I have no idea about digitally.

 

NMB48's 12th Single (6th Day Sales)
Day 6: 4,343 (Total: 368,390) (2nd)

 

Digitally it's doing pretty well - fourth for the week of 7/14

 

Total 368,390

only 1,610 will got 37K

 

Whoops, my bad. Fixed now .

Should know the weekly total today (which I'm guessing is in the 370K to 375K range).

371,000 1st Week total (1st Place btw.).

 

Kamonegix sold around that and ended up surpassing 500k, so let's hope it gets a couple of weeks more in the charts.

 

Kamonegix got additional events after the release.
No further sale past 9th round has been announced for this single at this point, so don't expect a boost anytime soon.

 

Soundscan Sales
Type A: 33,642
Type B: 23,721
Type C: 23,365
-----------------
Total: 80,728

NMB48's 12th Single (1st Week Sales)
Week 1: 371,276 (1st)

 

I was trying to stay positive!!!
Still, I think 400k is feasable in a couple of weeks.

 

That's not too bad actually~~~ I feel like the soundscan #'s are a little lower than normal? Not sure tbh, but really not too bad.

 

So,what is soundscan? like digital sales?

 

Physical sales at retailers. Oricon measures all types combined, Soundscan measures each individual type minus theater.

 

Gotcha,thanks!

 

So, I finally got my CD's and watched the DVD contents. I don't like NMB48 Vol. whatever things. Never found them interesting or funny lol. The Team M version was ok. Nana-feels. So, if u really liked Nana, that version might be really good for u lol. I personally loved BII version. The Durian eating contest was hella funny. But it was like only 10mins...I was really disappointed in that. I think 20-30mins would have been good. And more members...not only 5/6.

The MV's was great tho. I loved Team M's MV the most. Quite funny lol. Team N's reminded me more of a Kpop MV...in a box and dancing + close ups lol. Or H!P's format too lol. BII's was cute (as always ) lol. Tep7's MV was good too. I liked the little soccer story lol. Overall, good contents, I suppose. Would have been better with longer durian eating lol

 

The thing is why though? I've always felt that most of the top Nogi members were rather bland and whitebread compared to NMB (and other 48-group members) but then I'm not a Japanese fan, does the demure image really appeal that much more than the image NMB has?

 

The answer is AKB singles.
