Those 360 numbers in America are just great.

As for the PS3 in the UK... I don't get it. That's a big increase on nothing at all really. It can't be the new bundle for £259(?) nether because GT5 didn't even sell 10k units. The other 3 games are in the Top 40.

PS3 could tie with the 360 this week, it had a bigger boost in the UK. If we expect similar boosts in the rest of Europe, PS3 will be at ~400k and 360~200k. 40k in Japan and more for the PS3 in the rest of the territories could actually put PS3 ahead! I don't think Europe numbers for PS3 will jump that much, though. Maybe ~350k

Numbers for 360 and PS3 both down slightly compared to last year in UK. So if that goes all over Europe PS3 will be under 300K (Did 297K last year) and 360 right about 200K (Did 207K last year).



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

Is Fable III measured as a retail only or is it also measured as a pack-in?

If measured as a pack-in with the Holiday Bundle, I would have thought the sales of that game much higher since Microsoft was running Cyber Monday deals with it included in the bundle.


All retail sales including bundles are tracked, all digital distribution is not tracked.

I have a very hard time to see how 360 can get a bigger boost than PS3 this week in Europe considering the great deals/bundles for PS3 all around Europe. Last year the boost was so small week-on-week for the PS3 because GT5 launched the week before. Now we didn't have GT5 yet PS3 was up YOY last week. 

Which I still find dubious at best. Nearly the exact same % jump for 360 and PS3 (compared to the previous year) without GT5. I still find that unlikely. Not to mention we already have UK which has both down slightly compared to last year.

so about 500K for Wii WW.

Minimum 600k I'd say

250k in USA, plus Europe will probably increase to about 250k as well... last week global sales were 100k above the combined USA and Europe sales, now a chunk of that will be Canada, which likely has a boost for Black Friday too (though I don't think it will be anything like the US boost) so while that drops, other countries Christmas boosts are ramping up (Australia and such) so it will probably stay near 100k.

Actually Japan will probably drop as Skyward sword released the previous week, so the non US/EU regions will probably drop below 100k. Still, I would be surprised if the Global total for the week was under 590k (though that's still a little dissapointing, my 10 week countdown prediction pegged it at 735k, I didn't expect such a Black Friday focussed Wii year)

Can wii have at least 1 week selling over 1M, I next week ending 24th should have the biggest chance, sales drop after black friday as ususal but they slowly go back up again for another 2 weeks. 



Buying in 2015: Captain toad: treasure tracker,

Well Black Friday seems to have been particularly prominent this year, but I expect the week ending 17th Dec and week ending 24th will be higher than it in global sales.

@Carl... oh neat, must be time for the end of year Japan rise to start then.
