great hold for PS4. how are this holidays numbers compared to last year?



Around the Network

2016 is going to be a good year for the PS4.  Minecraft retail, a Final Fantasy year, exclusives out the ass, less PS3 ports, I can see it pushing 1.7-2 million potentially.

Western push is nothing short of amazing.



3DS
21,621 WTF with old 3ds? Up from 13k of the previous week, and equal with New 3ds... Has it gotten any price drop or deal or whatever? Good for Nintendo, because 3DS had huge stock, as of September 30th I deduced from sales/shipments comparison, that it had 240k stock, which is stagnant since people are focusing to the new models, which is the same with New 3ds and New 3ds xl stock combined!
Both old 3ds and 3ds xl have been discontinued, the first since the beginning of 2014 and the second since the end of 2014...

So, since October till the last week of 2015, 3ds sold 90k, ergo the stock have fallen to 150k, 3ds had big jump in December which was surprising (I was expecting that old 3ds stock clearance would take a lot of time, given its sales trend but December came and made me reconsider, it will take less time than I thought), but I guess stores in Japan discounted it to get rid of that dead stock....
As for 3ds xl, it sold 30k, consequently stock have fallen to 50k.... It should deplete for sure in 2016...
Lastly, old 3ds and old 3ds xl, are destined to reach new milestones, 10m and 7m respectively!



Splatoon will surpass Mario kart 8 next week or one week after that, AMAZING!

Great hold for Wii U, much better than previous years. Also, 3 000 000!

There where several Pokémon-themed 2DS on Amazon last week. Maybe it's them, but I wonder since I expected them to be preorders. On the other Hand, It might just be that the N3DS was sold out in several stores, so they bought the next best thing.

#FE doing much worse than Amazon numbers suggested. Also, high disparity between the two trackers for that game

And it looks like the Super Mario Maker bundle is sold out (has been for a week now), leaving just the basic white 32GB Version until the Pokkén Tournament Bundle comes or SMM Version getting restocked





Amazing week for everything!
Interesting to see a big difference in PS Vita hardware between Media Create and Famitsu.
I hope that PS Vita won't drop by much next week like it did last year.
Gundam did well for the second week, I expected a bigger drop.
Great hold from Minecraft, next week it will be 600k only retail! If we include digital numbers then Minecraft doesn't need a lot anymore for 1M!!!



Wow quite a difference in Vita numbers.
Gundam is lucky to surpass 100k this week with all the flashback it's been getting.
Minecraft vita is being a beast. Too bad Sony didn't market it well in the west, and i don't think they still have the right to ?



Quick question, Does week 53 count as week 1 on MC as well? I'm not sure how this goes.
