Totally shocked at those 360 numbers, they don't seem right at all as the 360's got a big discount here in UK and from what i can see are mostly sold out. I guess there were either not that many left or people waiting for the new console to release next month.

 Also interestingly PS3 is only like 100 units from being down year over year, who would of thought that coming off the back of E3!


How surprising that you mention PS3 in negative light despite that it is still only console up yoy. (DS down 105k, Wii 19k, PSP 33k, X360 14k). You really love downlaying PS3 don't you ? Also UK =/= EMEAA.


Ok then........

I am not sure if you are aware or not but this is a computer sales website, that means we might be talking about sales here. Would it make you happy if i changed what i wrote to "PS3 up by just over 100 year over year yay, yipeee let's throw a party!!", is that what you would prefer to hear?

You can take what i say in any light you like. I mentioned it was almost down year over year. You take that as some kind of offence. The fact you do is not my problem.

Agito will be fine due to Japan. It will profit. But i'm not sure by how much. Over 5 Million pirated Dissidia. Bastids!

I don't want it to just profit though, I want it to sell very well, they will have spent 5 - 6 years developing it by the time its out, it will deserve to sell more.

I am just gonna hope for a 3DS port of it now.

It's just funny that you ignore overall video game market situation and only cherry pick PS3 sales. The whole market is down in EMEAA compared to last year and that is also why PS3 is hardly up (Wii is actually down even with price cut). It's not that surprising.

Horrible Peace Walker sales....piracy sux balls.only 31k

God of War 3 only 7k again....Hopefully they release a platinum version for the holidays. America will keep it more than alive till the holidays.

Uncharted 2 just went platinum and is showing beastly legs ! 17k after the 14k last week ! Hopefully it stays in that region and improves further in the holidays.

Hardly any normal person in the EU bother playing or purchasing consoles in the summer months. Deffo when we love our sports aka football so much.


And next weeks sales will furtherly lower, as we finally got something that almost looks like Summer: week ending 19th the only device up WoW is DS, that is a portable. Football here in Italy and also in France won't affect sales anymore, though, instead we'll have two more farmers in FarmVille, Lippi and Domenech.

This time last year:

 

ConsoleWeekly (change)Total
DS 192,086 ( 1%) 41,815,169
Wii 85,528 (-4%) 18,726,322
PSP 66,232 (-0%) 20,053,078
PS2 52,834 (-2%) 59,105,749
PS3 52,690 (-0%) 9,749,972
X360 46,776 ( 4%) 11,559,866
Total496,146(-0%) 

 

Wii down 17K YoY, PS3 flat, 360 down 14K.

Disastrous all round. PS3 being flat is also worse than it may seem, when you consider this was not too long before the price cut.

 


Over two months before price cut....

Yeah, which was a bad period for PS3 if memory has abandoned you. If it's flat now, just think how YoY's will be in August. PS3 was already down 10K YoY in others region this time last year. Being flat against that is bad.

Actually in EU PS3 sold 2008 level numbers last year during this so called bad period. It was mainly because of bad American and Japan sales why it had that bad period before slim. Now it is hardly up because whole market is a lot down in EU. (For example Wii is down despite it had price cut)
