Cool. I guess Wii U is overdue for an adjustment downward for August though.



Really want to know digital Wind Waker sales

Digital sales for WW pls! Need to prove that it was big! (pls be over at least 40k, maybe be around 60k

I hope WW does well. I can't wait to get that. HD update with all the bits I hated about the GC version? Could well propel it to being my favourite 3D Zelda title.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

I knew the xbox360 and PS3 were massively overtracked.

No way GTA5 boosted their sales. If you remember well, GTA4 did not boost their sales at all, why would GTA5 boost their sale when they are at the end of their lives?

I bet GTAV is also overtracked by 4-5 millions. Also, after all this overtracking, the biggest overtracking of all is PS3 in Europe and rest of world, and sadly we can't have these verified.



90k is not bad. It might do > 100k for October! O.O

And 3DS on top is good news It's gonna dominate the end of this year as well.



Kind sad that this is Wii U's third best month. >_>



GTA V drives US console software sales up 52%

NPD results reveal a huge September for the retail side of the industry thanks to Rockstar's record-breaking performance

With GTA V quickly exceeding worldwide revenues of $1 billion in just three days, it should come as little surprise that NPD's US retail report is actually good... quite good. Total industry sales climbed 27 percent to $1.079 billion, while console and portable software sales jumped 52 percent to more than $754 million (factoring in PC brings the total down to a 40 percent increase). Accessories nudged up two percent, while hardware was the only category to decline, dropping 13 percent to $183.2 million - not exactly unexpected as everyone is gearing up for the launch of next-gen.

While GTA V stole the spotlight, other top performers for the month included EA Sports' Madden NFL 25 and FIFA 14, Take-Two's NBA 2K14, and Blizzard's Diablo III. The complete top 10 chart is below.
