I'm a Vita owner but I don't agree those are good sales. Even if it had those kind of sales during the deader summer months it wouldn't be good, I guess we have lowered our standards for it.

Still an improvement relative to its own sales of course.

did the 360 temporary price cut start yet?

Another new release, NFS: Most Wanted, sold 190k on 360 and 260k on PS3. Both versions might reach a million before the end of the year, PS3 version at least guaranteed.

As a comparison, Forza Horizon sold 330k FW on 360 only and 160k this week.


Wow...Forza is a beast.

The Vita sales are still abysmal yes but people are responding to software releases which is the best the system can hope for at this time.



IMO, I'm disappointed in the Vita numbers in the US. A new color + Assassin's Creed bundle and a huge release of games like NFS, SF X T (I know), and RO. All of this only provided a 10k of an increase in the US?

To be honest, I expected 30-40k at most.

PS3 well ahead of 360. I didn't expect that. This will probably be the last week though.


360 is still overtracked by 500kfor December 2011. NPD 1.7m while VGZ shows almost 2.3m for 360, and PS3 overtracked by 140k. If we correct those sales according to NPD then difference between both consoles last year is basically nothing WW in december.

VGZ 360 WW December 2011: 3.97m (3.49m adjusted)

VGZ PS3 WW December 2011: 3.44m (3.3m adjusted)

Difference of about just 200k in most important month.

Please explain why 360 shipments are almost 2m over VGC data.



It's starting...
Nice to see at least a decent increase in Vita sales. I think it'll get there, seeing more and more ads for it.

Probably second to last week for the PS3 to beat the Xbox this year, let's see if it can keep track a bit in the other weeks. Maybe the $199 bundle can help m out a bit.

Very good sales for AC3, did i miss dishonored?



I don't know, I thought 60k for the week of the biggest release of the year for the Vita was a poor number...



We need moar Zelda, now!

We need moar Unchartedzz!

We need less DLCs.

What about the system price cut, you know, the most important thing it needs.
