Ok, I am gonna come right out in say it,

in the UK at least these sales do not add up.
360- 32k
Wii- 34k

Charttrack had WiiPlay at no 2 behind WiiFit I believe. WiiPlay trends basically the same as the Wii as most WiiPlay is purchased at the time of a Wii purchase.

While ku fu and lego charted between 15-25 and they have a 100% attach rate. WiiPlay has at the most a 50% attach rate. Also Sega Superstars Tennis is not even charting so the Arcade must not have had great sales.

I dont know, it just does not add up.

So you think that just because SST isn't in the top-40 that it means that the X360 didn't sell much hardware? You need to remember that not 100% of consoles are bundled - the Kung Fu Panda/Lego IU bundles, as well as the SST bundles were for the holidays only. So it's likely that there were a few consoles sold through (both Pros and more likely Arcades) that did not have the bundle.

I'm not saying that makes up for everything, but I do think that Microsoft has had brisk enough sellthrough to where some packs may not have the bundled games in for 100% of the systems.

 

I still see adds for the 360 bundles now, about 2 weeks past the holiday rush. I am just saying a 2k difference does not add up. Also with the WiiFit supply I would expect Wiis to move a bit better.

As the 340k adjustment goes to show these numbers are not written in stone, I am just saying using logic that if he keeps tracking the UK like as is, we could see another adjustment....

In a typical week WiiPlay in the top 5 means a VERY good week for Wii HW. I am going by past trends... Who know maybe there was a Wiiplay sales that is throwing past logic out the Window.
