So Halo Reach pushed the 360 past the PS3 for YTD software sales.

PRetty amazing!

I wonder if GT5 can do enough to push PS3 back over.....but then with COD Black Ops 360 will be pushed back over!


Yeah it's gonna be interesting to see if Fable 3, COD:BO,etc can beat out the GT effect.  I think the 360 may just edge it but its still impressive that  the PS3 has caught it up this year.  Only reason I think GT will not push the PS3 over is I don't see it being as front loaded as COD and Fable 3, I maybe proved wrong of course!



DS never ceases to amaze me. This thing could sell 200 million when it's all said and done, maybe more. I'm curious to see how it sells once 3DS is released.

360 recieved quite a boost from Halo: Reach, pretty much expected. Will recieve another from Kinect. But it'll be interesting to see where it stablises when the dust settles.

PS3 barely inched ahead of Wii despite Move launch and Wii having nothing compelling. I think it's safe to say Sony simply needs more hit games if they want to do well in sales, not hardware addons and the 28th PS3 console skew/bundle.

Wii, meh what can you say? Pretty mediocre sales, but then again it currently has mediocre releases for the past 9 months. I don't really count Metroid Other M, since I knew from day one the game would not more hardware.

Nintendo just has to weather another month or so of these types of sales until Kirby is released, which should fire up sales at least a little bit. But it won't recieve a MAJOR hardware boost until the holiday season kicks in and DKC is released. The console has the potential to reach its 2009 sales, or at least get very close, with the strong lineup this holiday.

Oh and as for Halo Reach... hot damn! It will be interesting to see how its legs are. It looks like a sweet game. I want to get either this or Black Ops, but I can't decide which.

Do you honestly believe that? There's no NSMBWii/Price cut this year and not even Nintendo believes that's possible.

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.

Fullfilled Prophecies

So this is the third week where Wii is in third place among the home consoles this year. Although it was by such an insignificant margin on ACE:R week that it's really not worth arguing over. Still completely unbelievable. It's almost surreal, could anyone have predicted this at the start of the year? And Rhonin, I think you're missing a week on those YOY tables.

Yeah, I don't believe your logic is valid there.  People have already seen motion now for years.  They're not so easily impressed anymore.  Good games are needed, and Sony hasn't released the good ones yet.
