Forums - Sales Discussion - Global Up! - 3rd December

MW3 is holding up quite well now and is above Black Ops on a stricktly weekly basis.

In total sales so far, MW3 is well ahead.

As I said, MW3 will be the top Xbox or PS3 game in America and UK till New Years.
MW3 should be passing 10 million on the Xbox very soon.

3DS has the lowest decline in US.

Nintendo saves the videogame industry once again.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Looks like the 360 dropped by about what I thought it would.

Halo CEA doing rather bad really, it's going to struggle to get to 3 million at this rate (which is rubbish for a FPS Halo game)



Nice UK week, USA obviously down from a record week (was it the biggest BF ever for videogames?).



Stwike him, Centuwion. Stwike him vewy wuffly! (Pontius Pilate, "Life of Brian")
A fart without stink is like a sky without stars.
TGS, Third Grade Shooter: brand new genre invented by Kevin Butler exclusively for Natal WiiToo Kinect. PEW! PEW-PEW-PEW! 
 


The Gunstringer at 32 with 44,441?
This seems unlikely

It is a digital download afaik. Have there been other bundles?



Added US + UK + Germany HW in the OP.



 

I've seen plenty of Gunstringer Kinect bundles around, with the Fruit Ninja code inside.[UK] not sure about worldwide.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

WTF @Germany drop for PS3


it had significant rise out of nowhere last week.

not surprised at the PS3 UK numbers, the amount of bundles I've seen around - there was one in particular, BF3, GT5: Platinum, AC:R, Fifa 12 and PS3 all in for like £225, and many of those floating around, retailers price matching each other etc.

Uncharted 3 30k in German too... really nice.

PS3 drop??? Seem odd.
