Heres a thought. Nintendo shifted nearly 750 thousand consoles this week based on vgc. Over 2 million wii games and over 2 million wii u games bet most off which where 1st party. Pokemon,smash and even mk8 dominating charts compared to sony and xbox. Yep sales could be much better for wii u but damn nintendo must be laughing all way to bank.


I doubt they are laughing all the way to the bank...the 3DS numbers worry me as well Japan loves it though! And ummmm aren't most of NIN games 1st party to begin with? And why didn't you mention the game sales of XB or PS games? PS4 shifted what well over 2 million games as well(and that is only counting the top 20 games) more than likely closer to 3 or over. And how are Pokemon, Smash and Mk8 dominating the charts compared to Sony and Xbox? There are FAR more SOny and XBOX games in the top 20 than NIN games? Your post doesn't make sense to me.

But it is a good thought I guess.....

Ummm i only saw driveclub and lbp3 for sony and didnt notice much for microsoft soooo.....yeah.Software sales on ps4 is amazing for one week but  i didnt mention them cos not sure how many are 1st party. Not sure why half a million sales off 3ds would worry you though? wiiu needs to be better though.

Sony gets revenue from each and every game that sells on their systems. Not sure why you wouldn't count 3rd party games.

It's interesting that all next gen consoles will reach a milestone next week. WiiU 8m, PS4 17m and XB1 10m

I give the X1 props for being able to pass the WiiU so soon. I pegged it for Spring 2015 at the earliest, so this is definitely a shock!

really? why? WiiU has the worst console sales i ever seen. it was clear it wouldnt take long for xb1 to outsell it.

The adjustments for Black Friday zaps away any excitement that the numbers are right for this week. Overall, it is good to still see the Wii U lagging far behind the bone and the PS4.

I love when people love failure like you

always want stuff to fail hmm

Sales for LBp3 looking good. The PS4 version is keeping up with LBP1 and when PS3 and 4 are combined they match LBP2.

Woah, LBP3 PS4 has 500k already. Not such a flop after all.



Is there a way to see how all PlayStation systems have done World Wide over this time frame?

Well yeah off course they do but pretty sure majority off that £50 pound goes to developers and publishers rather than hosting console manufacture.

Pretty sure all three companys are experiancing nice holiday sales. All.im saying.is why everyone saying nintendo should go third party when it can sell 750 thousand consoles in one week and shift a ton of 1st party.

No, I have given my opinion on Nintendo millions of times. So, I fell no need to explain it in every post. Nintendo should be third party only in my mind. I wrote it again for you to clarify my standpoint.

That is due to falling console and handheld sales. As you said yourself, Nintendo enjoy good software sales. If they released their games on platforms like PS4 their software sales would explode.

So you are just saying 1st party games that was the basis of your comment. Well of course that would favor NIN seeing as 99% of the games on their consoles are 1st party and they have like no 3rd party support lol. Youa re saying "dominating"while only meaning 1st party. That's why your comment didn't make sense to me but now I got you. But seeing as MS/Sony have ALWAYS sold more 3rd party than 1st party software I am not sure why one would leave 3rd party out. And PS4 software sales have been amazing for a while now not just this week. Hence the reason it has long since passed the Wii U in software sales, and thinking about it the XB1 has also passed the Wii U in software sales. Matter of fact the PS4, PS3, XB1 and Xb360 all had better software sales this week than either the Wii or Wii U did.

I don't know the 3DS worries me because those sales are mostly thanks to Japan and the New 3DS. It just seems low everywhere else IMO for it to be theholidays. I could just be being a worry wart though. And why did you combine the sales of all the NIN consoles compared to that of the PS4/XB1? Heck so I could say that Sony shifted over 880 thousand consoles this week and MS shifted nearly 620 thousand consoles(obviously the lowest seeing as there is no handheld lol).

Your comment just seemed to nitpick and spin things to favor NIN like the other two are not laughing on the way to the bank as well. But we do agree on one point the Wii U DEFINITELY needs to do better.

The way things were headed is why. This was long before the X1 saw any additional price cuts/bundles/deals and the systems were still selling similar numbers.

cgi has a point

wii u was outselling for almost the entire summer so everyone thought it would pass it in 2015

but then microsoft gave it 5 bundles another $50 pricecut(limited time folks) lots of marketing
