Forums - Sales - EMEAA Sales UP!!!

Salnax on 14 October 2010

Wii Party... the opening is like 15% of Japan's...

Castlevania and Enslaved didn't exactly light the charts on fire either...

All in all, a pretty disappointing week.

It could be worse. Mario Party 8 opened at 28,000 in EMEAA and over 280,000 in Japan, and went on to sell over 2 million. With the holidays coming up, Nintendo first party legs, and word of mouth, it can still reach a million or more, despite the low initial sales. And as Halo Reach and the soccer/football games fade out, other games will get a chance.

FF:T4HOL for the DS, however, is domed. Domed I tell you, domed!

Gratz to PS3 closing the gap more.

Glad to see both HD consoles on top.

Wii Party didn't launch very well, but I'm sure it'll have good legs.

Wii vs X360 in UK.

Wii will now have to do better than last xmas, and for 360 to do worse than last xmas, to take UK for the year. 360 has it in the bag.

Anyone know when Nintendo's quarterly report will be released? I'm really beginning to think that even 17.5 million is a bit optimistic. God, it's depressing to see the Wii falling apart so badly. Not a single non-bundled Wii game in the top 10. Hopefully Wii Party will have good legs as others have suggested.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Nice 360 sales.... great HD sales... Wii at bottom makes me =] 



All gaming systems, consoles/PC, have thier perks... why fight over preferences? I like Coke and you like Pepsi, that's it, let's not fight over which toy we like best cause that's what they are. Is someone's preference in a toy important or is the relationship between you and your neighbor more important? Answer is obvious, but THE most important thing is your relationship with God almighty. God Bless you in Jesus's name.

I can communicate without talking... I can send a loved one money without actually sending money... and I can commit theft without the product disappearing, the point of theft is the point of theft not one of it's possible symptoms which is the product dissappearing. The thief wants to gain something without paying for it, that's the point of theft, the thief doesn't have to care or anybody else has to care if the product dissappears. The product dissappearing is just a possible symptom of theft. Gifts are sacrfices, in order to give a gift, it has to be a genuine sacrfice/gift, meaning a copy of the game isn't still in your PC. Piracy is theft and/or being a culprit of theft.

Xbox360 is doing well.  Thought they would be third by now

I'm thinking the exact opposite. 360's sales lead has dropped to only 4k. I was expecting it to be at least 15k-20k better then the PS3/Wii.

Actually sales are where I expected them to be, just PS3 is selling a lot better then I though. Didn't think Move would make much of a difference in sales.

I figured Halo Reach influence should have ended last week and Fifa on PS3 should given the edge to Sony

PS3 adjusted UP ~200k.

Wii adjusted down too.

According to VGChartz, Wii's lowest week WW ever is now 129k. It went below the 130k barrier already.

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.

if ps3 got adjusted up 200k then it mustve been adjusted down 200k in another region because it was at 38.0 million last week and still is

I agree about Halo, but I thought the Slim effect would be more profound. Maybe in October PS3 sales will drop again and 360 will remain due to a residual Slim effect, and some great stuff comming at the end of October/early Novemeber. I mean Fable, Kinect, Slim Effect, and a 360 biased Medal of Honor and CoD experience.
