are you saying we are due for adjustments.

are the numbers on the front page an edition of wk29?

I'm saying the ioi only ajusted the Wii U this week... all other consoles didn't reveive adjustments.

i know that. i was more interested in if you think the other consoles were due for adjustmens, as we'd normaly see them for all consoles.



Around the Network

Ps3 doing very nice.

If MS doesnt do a huge price drop WW then they will concede 2nd to the PS3. A huge price drop for 360 down to $99 might hold off Sony long enough but other than that looks like the 360 is really slowing. At least acording to VGC. It will be interesting to see what NPD shows

For now I think ioi is waiting the official trackers (NPD, Nintendo, etc)... in January I expect huge adjustments for every console like last year.

Week ending 7th Januaru 2012

3DS -372,921
PS3 -283,536
360 -882,792
Wii -528,465
DS -137,279
PSP -377,231

 

For now the lack of adjustments is fine.

Ben, what do you think about Wii U numbers for NA?

Tricky for me to realky comment on Wii U hardware sales as I have no idea how its selling at other major retailers. What does VGC have Wii U at for the month of December?

3DS & PS3 are impressive

WiiU - hard to tell, looks like it might have the same problem the 3DS had it in the west... DS outsold the 3DS there on many occasions and I wouldn't be suprised to see the Wii to do the same to the WiiU.

Its basically the opposite of the Vitas problem, in Japan the PSP still outsells it but it seems to be picking up steam in the west, especially EU

For the U.S. market , around 540K, I think.

these numbers look pretty odd to me all over tbh.

It's like every other year... so why did you think odd?



Congratz PS3 on being the #1 console this year and outselling the Xbox 360 this year by 1,387,425!!

Ouch at Wii U. Fell below Wii in US and EU....

Ouch at Vita numbers back to zombie levels in US.



Those 3DS numbers are fapworthy considering the non existent holiday lineup in the west. Wii U numbers are average, except europe. But Sony worked really hard over the holidays to make the Wii U look as bad as possible, giving out Vitas for chump change and a new PS3 model which is actually a bad deal but a nice "new-shiny-hardware" exploit for the not so bright people around here. Nintendo does this too, so Sony earned it. Congratz.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.
