Forums - Sales - Nintendo's Black Friday week: 900k DS, 600k Wii

Wait, they beat last year? That's quite a feat, considering they're d0med.

DS sales continue to boggle my mind.

Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

That's pretty amazing considering the sales they were having the last few months.  I guess Nintendo pulls it off for the holidays.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Lol, if Sony didn't shy away from being outsold 3-1 by Xbox 360 in 2008, I don't think they'll shy away here either. They'll most probably end up third, but I don't think the numbers will be too bad, if at all.

awesome numbers. They did not mention the competition though.

Normally it is like: we outsold X and Y.


Nintendo usually don't flout other companies names in their reports, and I doubt they have access to their competitors sales figures right now.


Pretty sure they would. SIRAS (I think that's what it's called) tracks all consoles I believe. That's how they got these numbers:

:edit: Ninja'd

You listed one of only two charts in the entire presentation not attributed to a tracking service.

I wonder why Nintendo listed itself as a the source ... unless it was counting compiling different numbers.

Back OT: NPD ought to be interesting, since it does not generally get good Wal-Mart and Toys R Us data.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Wow looking at those numbers 2007/2008 BF sales were atrocious for PS3! Should be nice to see some numbers in general from the competition, Nintendo pulls it off again, I can't even begin to imagine the revenue that they make from this!



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

emmmmmmmmm does any one else has other year's numbers to compare? I would like to see how does these numbers look compare to other years for the DS and Wii....any volunteers?
