Wow. No GH3 360 in the top 10? Vgchartz had it at over 1 million.


 Not anymore.  Wii version could be the best selling 7th generation version in the long run.

 And NPD has it under 400k. Help me this month is strange.

It already sold around 500k in October NPD, but including their November number will not get it to 1M. Partly to blame could be Rock Band which sold over 300k according to NPD.



That's a pretty good job on the hardware front, only Wii and 360 fall out of the 10% (both overtracked by vgchartz). Have the number been adjusted yet?

They're not outside the 10% if you consider that NPD's numbers are USA only.

VGC numbers for GH3

The Wii version has some work to do if it wants to pass the 360 version but its selling very well right now.

DS sold more than any video game console in US history for November!
PS2's record in '02 of 1.28m was outsold by 19%!
Wow at Mario & Sonic olympics! Much better than Japan (so far). VGC was right on.

A note on GH3 before you guys go all crazy on it -- we track the bundles and the separate software sales together, NPD separates them, that's why you don't see the 360 version as high in NPD numbers, those are bundle sales only.



ioi - Do you get data from Wal-Mart?

Reason I ask is for some games, like Rock Band, they only carry the X360 version. Where I live, sales for it there have moved briskly (antecdotal info, but still rather important),



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
