Doesn't hurt that CoD also released a day before Kinect.

nice.. so probably at least 200k for EMEAA this week?


Could we see 400k WW for 360 this week? That would be ridiculous!!

Should be guaranteed to be higher than that as last year for the MW2 launch(w/MW2 bundles) the 360 sold 437k. This year with the COD:BO launch(w/BO bundles) plus Kinect (European launch and 2nd week Americas).

Interesting that they say 360 has outsold Wii "consistently" pretty much for the past few months in UK. Wonder if the Wii maybe has been over-tracked a bit then? As the guy is obviously in the Nintendo camp as he mentions "Wii is still outselling PS3 – the numbers are going the wrong way for Nintendo year-on-year but it's certainly not a disaster"?

And yes - Black Ops bundles actually had as much of a part to play as Kinect in the increase


would that be the reason PS3 is close to 360 this week in EMEAA, I assume PS3 COD outsold 360 outside of  US, RIGHT?>

Also guy, VGchartz already has 360 ahead of Wii for the last couple of months, so it doesn't seem like they're overtracking it.

Great sales with combination of Black Ops Kinect.

Last year 360 boost 82% and PS3 boost 42% on MW2 week in EMEAA.

I expect around 250k for both this week.

The report never said every week. Last week, the Wii had a new bundle and color come out.
