I'm smelling an adjustment comming up in the next few weeks

Why is that?


I work in retail unloading trucks and the numbers and the supply don't match up well... I could be wrong but that's just what I think... I've looked up several stores over different geolocations in the US and they all get around the same shipment numbers give or take for store size

walmart != the whole of america sales, just wait for NPD



it's the future of handheld

PS3 is winning in Others!(HD only)

PS3 - 15.26 million
360 - 15.25 million

Eh......that was bound to happen sooner or later. Sony will keep Japan and Europe, Microsoft will continue to sweep away the States.

Seems doing very well in America too.

PS3-99483 vs X360-92215

NPD shall reveal it all soon.


NPD doesn't account for Walmart... that's who I work for

So why would your anectodal evidence for walmart suggest an adjustment for others? I don't see the correlation, plus shipments for different regions are completely different.

that's exactly what i was wondering...

...but i smell an adjustment too.  ps3 just overtook the 360 in others....obviously that will be taken away with an adjustment again.  ioi hates me.

Wow, Halo Wars is still selling?

Why are we talking about America in the others thread? Americans, when you get accused of acting like USA = world, this is what we're talking about :p

Anyway, this time last year:

DS 359,660
Wii 115,164
PSP 72,928
PS2 65,296
360 62,901
PS3 53,335

Wii is up 2K YoY. Huh, well at least it isn't down, but do we now need more software to keep momentum up? Good thing software is finally coming.
PS3 up 25K YoY. 360 down 11K.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

My god, have you ever actually looked at the Wii software numbers? I can't believe I've been so concerned about second place. Doesn't really matter does it?

I think a few people deliberately avoid looking at the Wii HW/SW numbers...

At one point I thought the whole thing (console wars) might turn into an HD vs SD affair, but clearly the diehard PS3/360 fans were unable to settle their differences enough to try for HD victory over SD sales type arguements.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Well, the top 6 software is all Wii/DS and did over a half million units, and only 2 of those are "newer" titles, whereas the next 3 PS360 titles account for around 150,000. Not even close.

It makes me wonder about the uptake of HDTV's and whether it's quite where the HD guys would have you believe. I mean, if you read the "3D will push X console sales through the roof!" threads, you would think that every household already has 2 HDTV's and at least one that's 3D ready. I think a lot more people than we like to admit are still hangin' with their SDTV's and are fairly satisfied.

Also, up until this week I have to admit I ignored the blue colored sales, but I think I'll keep a watch on them. It makes worrying about second place seem like who gets the slightly less smelly turd, to be honest.

That's been my feeling for the better part of this generation. LoL.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
