15% increase for PS3? thats a bit of a bump, just the holidays starting? or more adjustments



It seems that from this moment onwards, consoles are going to keep going up, unless we see more adjustments...

WoW:

X360 up 6%
PS3 up 19%
Wii up 29%
3DS up 14%

Were there big releases to justify this?

If you look at my WOW table in my previous post, you'll see Wii increased 29%. X360 increased less (6%) because it just had a few exclusive releases and is coming from already increased sales.

So, if VGC is right, I think it's safe to say we are seeing holiday increases here.

Huge numbers for 360 as usual in NA
Encoraging numbers for PS3 for the rest of the year in NA
Big increase WoW for the Wii, when considering that there was no big software (I think)

The HD twins benefited from batman, but the Wii still got a bigger bump, man the price of the Wii is too low for them to not have huge Holiday sales.

Are you kidding me?Arkham City is one of the biggest releases of the year.



Maybe the new PS3 price point close a little the gap in Americas.

To close the gap it'd need to start outselling it ...
