Forums - Sales Discussion - The last 30 weeks

While comparing numbers can be somewhat of a unique experience I find looking at the sales since the Wii came on the charts 30 weeks ago to show perhaps the best cross section of how each console is doing. After all, its only in these last 30 weeks that all the consoles have been on the market.

The Last 30 Weeks each has sold:

DS – 14.58m units

Wii – 7.61m units

PSP – 6.16m units

360 – 4.29m units

PS3 – 3.10m units

Interesting to see the PS3 isn't that far behind the 360, some more games and the PS3 might surpass the 360 in sales. And the PSP is selling almost as much as the Wii, fancy that.

I just wonder when the Wii won't be supply-constrained anymore.



YEah, makes you wonder how much the Wii could have sold by now.



Hopefully the new production facility(s) will be up and running before september, to make extras for the holidays. I think after it is sold out for a year straight, people will start to get very frustrated and more angry at Nintendo for not solving it by then.



As some people said before (in other Threads) I think the PS3 will have a hard time to become second place. You know, there are some good PS3 games which will be released in 2008 and end of 2007 but Microsoft has Halo and a possible price cut. I wonder if it won´t be too late for the PS3 when Final Fantasy (which is still just one game and will boost sales for 3 weeks, not 3 years) finally hits Japan. If PS3 sales continue to decline there is actually the chance of Sony letting it fall and die. Sounds quite odd, but where are the system sellers...?

wrong wrong wrong, you are using the doubled up other europe numbers, the wii isn't 7.61, and the 360/psp/ps3/ds are also lower logically Other than that, pretty good comparison.

what? why are the europe figures doubled up? Is there a problem on vgcharts?



It sometimes happenes, but Ioi will probably fix it on Thursday (?) when Europe figures are updated. It´s just the "other europe" figures, though.
