Wii.

Well - during Wii Fit launch in America, Wii sold 324K there.

At GTA IV launch, it sold 412K.

I suspect that it will be lower than both those, as we have seen a sort of "uptrapping" lately.

Weekly Wii sells more and more in the big weeks, and then had a boom, before tripping down again.

Normally the up week is twice of the down week, so I'll say about 230K.

Others: The boosts here are minimal from supply. Normal is around 150K here, so that seems fair, as I see little reason for increase there.

Japan: Wii is in a decreasing period, just as Ps3/360, and shouldn't have a big boost, so 40K.

Worldwide: 420K.

That's good. Now let's check your Ps3 predicts. (some of which are IRRATIC!)

Ps3:

America:

Ps3 peaked at 99K in GTA  launch. Now there's already 70K bundles, and an estimated 30K boost on normal sales, so 150K.

1st sentence is incorrect. Ps3 sold 145k during gta4. About near correct.

Others:

Sold over 200K with GTA. Has  had huge stocks, and sold out. It's bigger than GTA IV, so I'll say 250K

Now, this is what I meant by irratic. Mgs4 may beat gta4 when it comes to game quality, but when it comes to game sales, GTA4 RAPED! How can it sell that much? I doubt that a lot. For me, 140k-155k is possible, but 250k is downright unreachable for it. (It's also not bigger than gta4. mgs series is nowhere near the grand theft auto series in popularity.)

Japan:

Japanese love bundles. MGS is selling huge over there (at least for a Ps3 game). I expect it to have a major boost, to 50K.

sounds about right.

Worldwide:

450K.

X360:

Slight drop from usual is likely. Normal is 60K Others and 50K America, so 90K.

Ps3 sold 99K on GTA IV launch. Not 145K, unless I'm reading it wrong.

For Others, I think you're slightly correct. 250K is a lot, but I believe it has a shot at it.

Grand Theft Auto IV was a multiplatform game. It didn't give a huge boost in sales - in fact, people were dissapointed. It gave X360 a roughly 70K HW boost in Others, and Ps3 a rough 100.

For Ps3 to now get a 150K hardware boost may be a bit much, but 120K is definately within reach

 

PS: What does irratic mean? I've never heard of it. Same as erratic?
