And it seems Ubisoft is the biggest winner in the holiday season with Just Dance 4, ACIII and Far Cry 3.

To the degree you are saying, yes. You are saying that less than 1% of Wii buyers are interested in WiiU. 1%! Do you realise how rediculous that is? I'm blown away buy it. If you want to bash WiiU interest level, say it's about 50% of what Wii was. Go extreme even, say Nintendo would be lucky to get 10% of the interest level. But 1%? That's so over-the-top I can't take you seriously. And there are games Euros want, NSMBWii sold 700,000 copies this year alone. Millions of Euros will buy a WiiU and they will buy NSMBU. What happens after that, I don't know but there is without a shadow of a doubt more than 340k people that will do that. You may not hang out with them, but they are definitely alive and willing to buy a WiiU when they can get one.

you put far too much faith in your "1%" calc. check out the first 6 weeks of ps3 sales in europe and you'll see an even smaller percentage. wrong price, wrong games, no interest. past success does not ensure future success.

Thank you Kitler, I really don't know how much simpler to make that argument.

Perhaps another argument Starfighter, there are many Nintendo fans on this site, correct? Yet you seem to be the only one even attempting to argue its supply constrained in Europe, doesn't that strike you as even slightly odd?

Biggest week for Halo 4 in Germany since launch week (17k this week). Was there a price drop?

halo4 was reduced in price quite widely - by now it's at ~35 € at amazon.de.

GT5 numbers in Europe are fantastic.

Last year: 45k
This year: 45k

No drop... non stop.

Oh yes, it is. GT5 is by far the most important IP for ps-brand (at least in Europe). Also the game exists in several version (bundled with controller, 2 bundles with PS3) and the price has dropped several times. So sure it gets sold a lot. Good legs.

Im just glad to see Halo 4 have solid legs despite being sub 90 on metacritic. Also nice to see Forza 4 being the most relevant sim franchise of 2012 with Horizon selling a cool million on its own.

Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Still 96 million to go, but if Sony keeps the 10-year-plan it could manage to do so.
