360 holding up quite well these last few weeks. I wonder when it will crack into the 5 figure territory again?

If Japan can stay in the 20K territory for PS3 going through the slow part of the year it should help PS3 stay above 100K WW this year

20k >>>>> nsmbwii

Good to see that Nier is still in the top 10!



Abysmal for the Wii in Japan. How does it compare YoY?

Found the numbers from last year:

39,635 (-33%) 26,629,323
29,606 (-31%) 12,251,802
14,114 (-36%) 8,054,417
10,507 (-38%) 3,210,070
4,294 (-26%) 22,906,020
3,703 (-29%) 1,057,654

VGC numbers.

Home consoles are up and portables + PS2 are down. Still first time Wii goes below 20k since last year.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

What's even more interesting is that PS3 hasn't gone below 20k since slim was launched.

Oh and one last interesting tidbit. Since the introduction of the Slim PS3:

PS3 sold 1,842,711
Wii sold 1,832,785

Not counting this weeks data. Lack of third party games is REALLY hurting the Wii, PS3 has stabilized above the Wii now. All the momentum the Wii had until now was just because of NSMBWii.
