Wow. Canada was annexed by the USA. When did that happen?

130k vs 120k for 360.

82k vs 75k for PS3.

77k vs 70k for 3DS.

Which are correct?


the numbers on the front of the page are for north america, the ones in the graphes are just for usa, so naturally the ones on the front of the page will show more consoles sold as it represents the usa and the rest of the region

Oh, fair point, thank you.  I never realised that the front page says "North America" and the chart-specific numbers are USA only.  Whoops.

haha yeah, its weird if you ask me, i got confused when i noticed the difference as well but figured it out



Christmas is going to be a profitable time for all three, I'd say. Good for them. Nice to see a nice, big Christmas season in what COULD be the final holiday where the 360 and PS3 are dominant and not their successors. One, the other or both could release in 2014, true, but one never knows.



Talk about a boost in software sales for Vita. That is really really strange though because a ton of big games launched on the 30th yet there was nothing new for the week before.



Europe is now up, Farm simulator the number one game this week over 300K lol



This thread offends me. You're advertising worldwide hardware figures in the title, yet they're nowhere to be seen in the thread. Absolutely disgraceful.
