Jesus they're nice sales, and that's just for US and UK...

I have triumphed! You guys can thank me for getting Gravity Rush and 32GB Vita Memory Cards over to EU!

Lafiel on 22 November 2012

hm, yea in the US week 1 is ~1.2m units lower than MW3 (-870k 360; -350k PS3; -27k PC) - that's about 19% less

Noone should be surprised by this.

You can only milk a series for so long.

SUPER NINTENDO ENTERTAINEMENT SYSTEM IS THE PAST, THE PRESENT AND FUTURE, NOW B_E_L_I_E_V_E

STARCRAFT IS THE BEST GAME EVER CREATED. F_A_C_T

awesome

Bet with pezus: If the Wii U has over 150% of the Vita userbase when the next CoD Launches, and has a synchronized launch, then it will outsell the lifetime sales of BLOPS:Declassified for Vita. 3 Months of sig control is at stake.

Halo 4 took some sales sure, but the franchise had to decline at some point later literally years and years of gains.

Many people are switching to the Wii U for this game, that's why sales for the other versions are down.

Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV (360+PS3) would outsell SSBB. I was wrong.

CoD is not my cup of tea, but I admit it's a good game, and I don't "hate" it. But I'm still happy it seems it's starting to decline, it can only be positive to the industry if this becomes less popular and a wider diversity of games could became mega-sellers.
