Let me know what you think about the new format. Since VGC is so decrepit, I just took screenshots from my spreadsheet. I could make the images large and colourcode them for next month if you like.

Platform

Platform December (%) December (%) Change (%)
PS4 38.1 36.7 +1.4
WiiU 35.3 36.0 -0.7
3DS 9.2 4.8 +4.4
XB1 7.4 8.7 -1.3
PC 6.8 7.8 -1.0
Vita 2.6 3.1 -0.5
PS3 0.6 1.5 -0.9
X360 0 1.0 -1

The big change this month is the 3DS nearly doubles its market share. After the release of Pokemon and Smash Bros 3DS game hype fell as well with a low of 4.8% marketshare last month. This month, largely because of the announcement of Zelda: Majora's Mask, 3DS has come back to 3rd place. Increased voting for Codename STEAM and Monster Hunter helped as well.

PS4 grew slightly with it's strong February lineup closing in, and every other platform fell to compensate for the rise in these two platforms. There was a lot of fluctuation this month as 30% less people voted.

Expect PS4 to remain on top for another month, but once Bloodborne, The Order, and Witcher 3 release WiiU should retake the lead in March. Maybe sooner if there is a Nintendo Direct this month.

Publisher

Publisher November (%) November (%) Change (%)
Nintendo 40.7 38.6 +2.1
Sony 16.8 12.3 +4.5
Konami 5.6 7.6 -2
Square Enix 5.9 7 -1.9
Warner Bros 6.7 6.5 +0.2
Microsoft 6.7 6.5 +0.2
Atlus 3.8 3.2 +0.6
Nippon Ichi 2.3 0.4 +1.9
EA 2.3 1.6 +1.7
CAPCOM 2.2 3.1 -0.9

Sony gained a bit with the Bloodborne and The Order gaining more hype, but in general nothing special happened. Nippon Ichi came soaring up largely because of the 30% small vote, and because Hyperdimension gained more points while Hotaru no Nikki entered the chart with ~0.8% the total points.

Next month, anything can happen. Sony and Warner Bros will likely see more points, and maybe Nintendo too if Majora's Mask gains more votes and if there is another Nintendo Direct.

Genre

Genre December (%) December (%) Change (%)
Action-Adventure 32.2 33.1 -0.9
JRPG 29.4 31.0 -1.6
Shooter 15.5 13.0 +2.5
WRPG 6.9 6.2 +0.7
Platformer 3.0 2.0 +1.0
Strategy 2.7 1.7 +1.0
Horror 2.3 4.3 -2.0

So this month we see a rise in shooter's, platformers, and strategy games. This can be attributed to the increased hype for Splatoon & The Order 1886 (shooters) and Codename STEAM (Strategy). Platformers seem to be a random fluctuation, but there were votes for a few new entries like Crash and Shantae.

Next month expect WRPG's at the very least to go up. JRPG's might with Bloodborne releaseing, but with other heavy hitters like XenoBlade and Final Fantasy XV taking up the bulk of the vote, it might not.

New format's fine, i'd say just make it a little bigger. Not much else.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

What Khan said; it's good, first 3 posts are just a bit small.

And apparently I was the only one who voted for Captain Toad or Fatal Frame 5... XD

Yea I thought the same thing, I'll try to zoom in the image. I don't know why some of the text appears blurry. It's sad how screenshots are better then using the forum tables.....

You were the only one to vote for Captain Toad and Fatal Frame We lost a lot of votes last month, I dunno why. XenoBlade for instance used to tie Zelda, and now it's way behind. Plus PS4 is getting more votes then WiiU, are Nintendo fans all just addicted to Smash at the moment?

They're abandoning their posts to be with family for Christmas, and will be severely punished for their dereliction of duty. None but the great Nintendo deserves our loyalty. :p
I have a feeling the Zelda gameplay revealed a few weeks ago will have helped it hold its ground against XCX.



First of all, great job Michael and thanks for doing it.

The format is what it is, nothing much can be done with the new restrictions, and whatever I could say, Mr Khan and curl already said before. Just one thing to note, The Crew has already been released, you can remove it from the list.

On to the results: PS4 on top as expected, WiiU holding well and PC and X1 falling. I guess most of the missing votes where from these platforms.

Oh, and it clearly shows that variety is important to the success of a platform. WiiU has the top 3 titles but with its variety of genres and offerings from both 1st and 3rd party studios it's the PS4 who gets the most votes.
