About as expected. Thought Wii U might have been a bit higher and Vita a bit lower but there you are.

I also refuse to believe that COD has an attach rate of near 70%, particularly after what EA was saying about them having 1 in 3 sales, but maybe that's just my hope more than anything else.


A 70% attach rate is doubtable for CoD yeah, but VGChartz numbers show a ~30% attach ratio for EA games so that reason isnt one of them. Did you even check the numbers? lol



                            

I really want to know Vita numbers next week, can the TV save it?



Cmon Wii U keep climbing for the love of god!!!



PS4 has sold more in one day in NA than the PS3 ever managed any week WW.

Actually, I wonder if the PS4 will be below the 3DS next week, with the XBone on top. Seems pretty likely.

Apparently, they're completely sold out of PS4 now, and i'm not sure when a new shipment will arrive. It will surprise me if XO isn't topping the charts next week.

Next week we should also see the WiiU over the 100 000 mark for the first time since forever. 

Also, the number of 3rd party sales on the current 1 mill installbase of the PS4 could be considered disastrous for WiiU and serve as definite proof that 3rd party multiplatform games can't do decent numbers unless its exclusive to the platform. Nintendo needs to buy valuable system selling ip's now, or im going to get really worried for what might happen in 2014 in terms of 3rd party support. 

Looking at these numbers, i'm guessing Activision, WB and Ubisoft executives are just flat out scratching their collective heads in bafflement. 

The complete BOMBING of Mario & Sonic at the Olympics is proof western Nintendo WiiU owners are following reviewsites very closely.


It's not like the other Mario & Sonic games scored that highly by reviews either though. 

It just shows the mini-game-a-thon concept has run its course. You can't expect people to keep buying more and more of those when they already had Wii Sports/Resort, Mario & Sonic Beijing, Mario Party 8, Just Dance 202939, Just Dance Kids 20393, Just Dance for Dogs, Wii Fit Plus, etc. sitting at home. 

Nintendo Land not being able to find a big mainstream audience despite it probably being the best of the "mini-game" bunch was a pretty huge tip off. Game & Wario was a full on flop too. 

Ironically the soundtrack for Mario & Sonic Sochii is so great, it might be the first in the series that I buy if I can find it on clearance for cheap a few months down the line. The remixes of a lot of the Mario tracks are incredible.

Yeah. You're probably right as far as the west is concerned. I also noticed that Nintendoland almost disappeared from the charts as soon as it was removed as the main packin game for WiiU.

Also, thanks for that link. The music in Mario & Sonic Sochi is amazing!



I don't think we can expect any more massive PS4 weeks any time soon, in Norway and Sweden, they're pretty much already sold out since the start of October in pre-orders. Most websites claim they won't have any stock until around January 16th.



Still no 100k for wii U?. Nice numbers for the vita



Want to see the Wii U breaking that 100K barrier.

Can it get to the 200Ks/300Ks?
