Around the Network

hardware sales are so boring and predictable right now.. really wanna see the new consoles on those charts!



17% is a smaller boost than I imagined. I would have guessed more like 40%.

*Sigh*



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Im really disapointed in Wii U and Pikmin 3 sales for Europe. I was expecting Pikmin-50k+, Wii U-10k+



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

17% of a very small number. In just magnitide I would have thought number of people buying a Wii U for pikmin >> other people buying a Wii U this week for no specific reason.

Pikmin was never that "hardware mover"... it is a small franchise after all.

I thought Pikmin would do a little better than that, I thought people were itching for a reason to buy this thing. I guess they really need a Mario or Zelda to jump start this car.



Did the PS3 ever go below 100k this year?
