firelink said: This number is shipped. However, one must realize, that shipping a lot of units to retailers does not always mean a good thing. When MHTri came to the states, Capcom shipped TONS of units to retailers, and they just sat on the shelves. I believe the same thing is happening here. I noticed sites like Amazon are already discounting the game. It is very likely that retailers and e-tailers are overstocked. |
I have another theory... of course retailers overstocked U3 for the Holidays but 3.8 million shipped to 1.2 million sold seems a little undertracked here.
For me VGC numbers are good in US ans way off in EMEAA... so the game may have sold more there than VGC thinks... 800-1000k is my bet just for EMEAA.
In total I guess U3 sold in first week somewhere between 1.5m and 1.8m (2m on shelves for Holiday).
VGC always underestimates PS3 software in EMEAA.

UK numbers (not all of Europe) were released, and it only did about 120k. UK is the biggest market in Europe. I believe it takes up a little over 20%. So that x5 would be around 600k.
Middle East and Asia are not that popular with video games, so I doubt they contributed much.

PS3 is bigger outside UK in EMEAA.
Middle East, Africa & Asia (37k) > UK (25k) Other Europe (40k) > UK (25k) France (20k)/Germany (21k)/Iberia (21k)/Italy 18k are selling little less than UK (25k).
So Uncharted sold way more in EMEAA than UK.
Edit - Add last week hardware numbers.

don't forget about pirates
and if UC3 is 1.5~1.8,than Batman AC should be 2.2~2.6 first week...oh,maybe
|
Pirates? LOL.
How many Batman AC was shipped for PS3??? 2.5m???
Well it sold 1.39m here... 1 million on shelves... U3 has now 2.5m on shelves.
And I guess Batman is undertracked too in EMEAA... I guess Black Ops is undertracked too in both (EMEAA and Americas).
That's just how things are here .
|
ah,after first week,Batman:AC had 2.8m on shelves
so i was said,why don't just wait,at least we will know US number from next month NPD
about Europe,we also likely get month ranking from GFK next month
|
I checked the numbers.
Batman AC had 1.6m on shelves in first week for PS3 (assuming 50% for each console).
Don't compare shipped number for 360 and PS3 together... you have to look just for PS3.
