Not that bad for Splatoon, hopefully it does better for the rest of Europe, unlikely that it will drop off the face of the earth like a few are claiming already though, hopfully it does better than W3 over time.

Well, the source of last week say 212,400... can i have the source for this week?

The source is the same for the two weeks.

Debut week.

Assuming that the Bloodborne first week number The_lascar posted two months ago was accurate, The Witcher 3 would have debuted selling around 175,000 units. 184,000 extrapolated to 100% of the market.

This week.

01 (01) THE WITCHER III: WILD HUNT (BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT) - 57,040 / 241,040 (-69%)

I don't understand this source honestly... i just know that The Witcher 3 sold 608% better than what did The Witcher 2 first week, and that's confirmed, now i can't remember what did The Witcher 2, but on gaf say it sold 30,000...

Bruno only have data for 90-95% of the market... so after that he estimates the 100% of the market.

But lets check the Witcher II debut...

"but ‘Witcher III’ also delivers an increase of 608% on the week 1 sales of its 2012 predecessor"

The article is talking only about the 360 version because the PC versions was released in 2011 (May)... that is what you have:

"It sold around twice as many copies as second-place FIFA Street"

FIFA Street ~15k in that week... that menas it can be 14.5k for example or 15.5k... and around twice didn't means twice too... just can be close... 98% or 102% for example.

 

184k means 26k for Witcher II debut... 26k is close to twice FIFA Street too.

Humm, that's better. So, The Witcher PS4+XBO+PC around 57,000? But we don't know how did on PS4 and XBO, we just know the 57,000 PS4+XBO+PC, agreed?

We still have Splatoon above Mario Bros U first week (5^ best WU seller), so, Splatoon > 19,899 ... That's can mean The Witcher for XBO is at +20,000 sold for sure...  If the VGChartz track is correct...

The Witcher last week: 212K.
32% XOne = 68K

minus 69% = 21K this week.

Splatoon under 21K!

Good? Bad?

It doesn't seem good to me, not very promising sales for what people were expecting to sell in millions.

edit: NVM pc would have never charted. even with a 69% drop only the sku sold not even 3k units retail

Well you can say The Witcher III XB1 second week is below 20k... to be fair some will say 17k but nobody can confirms right now.

About The Mario Bros U the Wii U debuted at 40k in UK and I just can show you the chart:

01 (01) 360 Call Of Duty: Black Ops Ii (Activision Blizzard)
02 (02) PS3 Call Of Duty: Black Ops Ii (Activision Blizzard)
03 (__) 360 Far Cry 3 (Ubisoft)
04 (06) WII Just Dance 4 (Ubisoft)
05 (05) 360 Halo 4 (Microsoft)
06 (07) 360 Fifa 13 (Electronic Arts)
07 (03) 360 Hitman Absolution (Square Enix Europe)
08 (__) PS3 Far Cry 3 (Ubisoft)
09 (08) 360 Assassin's Creed Iii (Ubisoft)
10 (04) PS3 Hitman Absolution (Square Enix Europe)
11 (__) WiiU Nintendo Land (Nintendo)
12 (11) PS3 Fifa 13 (Electronic Arts)
13 (09) PS3 Assassin's Creed Iii (Ubisoft)
14 (__) WiiU New Super Mario Bros. U (Nintendo)
15 (14) PC Football Manager 2013 (Sega)
16 (__) WiiU Zombi U (Ubisoft) > 12k

 The only think I can say is that Zombi U sold over 12k (30% of the consoles sold was the Zombi U bundle).

I was just thinking...

Destiny really turned to be the next CoD for Activision (and Bungie).

TOP10 after 10 months is GTA/FIFA/CoD level in UK.
