Oh Halo 4... seems like less than Halo 3 and Reach.

creamsugar@343 industries: 

with bundle > 3m
without < 3m

black 75% vs white 25% is consistent with what VGCers have been saying the past couple weeks. Deluxe sold out but Basic readily available in stores.

I don't have full numbers, don't follow the industry much now.

3DS will probably double in December, I think Wii, X360, and PS3 will all be much flatter, up at most 50% from November. I was rounding for some of those, I'd go 5.2m X360, 3.5m 3DS,  3.2m PS3, 2.1m Wii, 1.4m Vita, 1.1m Wii U and maybe 400k for PSP & PS2 for the whole year in each case. My standard for an average year is 4.0m - so that's a pretty crappy year industry wide. If you do 250k x 10 months (43 weeks), you get 2.5m, plus 500k in Nov, and 1m in December for 4m. 

Also:

Wii era systems (Wii, X360, PS3): 99m

PS2 era systems (PS2, Xbox, GC): 71m

Will top 100m "current gen systems" in the US in December, just about 95% of US households have one console in theory (if we pretend multi-ownership doesn't exist).

Isn't that a little low?

And now we wait for the inevitable Wii U software - Mario

Me and you both, bro.  Still, I play it 70% of the time.  If you're online now, you'll see.  :)

what about AC3 and BO2?

Yeap.

Halo 4 + November (Black Friday) < Halo 3 or Reach + September.

If you account the release month... the things get worst.

cod 360 > cod ps3 > ac3 360 > ac3 ps3 > 1m @creamsugar

Really surprised by those two; they're 6th and 7th over here respectively in terms of SW sales.
