Forums - Sales Discussion - NPD November: X360 #1 - 1.7M, PS3 900k~,Wii - 860k, 3DS 795k

According to this if the top 10 was by individual SKU Halo Anniversary and Mario 3D would be in top 10.

If we have Xbox 360 undertracked at 1.6M... That would just be ridiculous O.o

Pachter & EEDAR would cry :P

Also Halo = :( Guess we'll have to wait for Halo 4 to see properly big Halo numbers again


The 360 numbers are already ridiculous. Any higher and minds will explode.

 

Crazy when you think about this being the 360's 6th holiday season.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Yeah I think the 2nd highest gap was 720k so it is at least 720k and less than 900k between 360 and the 2nd best selling console which is probably the Wii. Does this mean the 360 outsold the PS3 by close to a million?



Super Mario 3D and Halo would of made the top ten in the old NPD

Just want to play good games

NPD says the gap is highest since Dec 2008 - by my records thats over 500,000. Wii vs. DS in Dec 2009 was 3.81m vs. 3.31m and its higher than that.

Hardware revenue came in about 10% higher than I expected based on our numbers - I think we might be low across the board on everything but we have to see.

Nintendo 3DS and Wii Cross Major Milestones after Record-Breaking Black Friday

Strong sales on Black Friday pushed the U.S. installed base of the Wii™ system to 37.7 million units and helped the Nintendo 3DS™ system surpass the first-year totals of the Nintendo DS™ system (2.37 million) after only eight months on the market, according to the NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States. Other milestones reached in November include:

Software

The Super Mario 3D Land™ game for Nintendo 3DS sold more than 625,000 units and is the fastest-selling portable Super Mario™ title in U.S. history.
The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword for the Wii system had the biggest first day in franchise history and sold more than 600,000 units in its first week.

Hardware

Nintendo sold more than 2 million combined hardware units in November. This includes more than 860,000 Wii systems, more than 795,000 Nintendo 3DS units and more than 350,000 units of the Nintendo DS family of systems. Nintendo 3DS had its biggest single month of sales, representing an increase of more than 215 percent over the previous month, and has now sold nearly 2.5 million units since launch. Wii had its biggest Black Friday ever with more than 520,000 units sold. Full-month sales increased by more than 245 percent over the previous month.

“Great software and unparalleled value drove momentum on Black Friday and through November,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Both Nintendo 3DS and Wii have already set records, and we’ve still got the bulk of the shopping season to go. People are flocking to our bundles and the fun of Mario and Zelda that can only be found on Nintendo systems.”

Here are the known hardware sales for the month (this will be updated):

Xbox 360: TBD
PlayStation 3: TBD

HOLY CRAP. Super Mario 3d Land sold 625k and didn't make the top 10. Its crazy batman and madden sold over that. Also its weird that said super mario land over 625k and zelda over 600k when zelda made the top 10 and mario didn't. Wii sales are lower then expected though. Thats not good.
