- Wii and PS3 continue to perform RIDICULOUSLY and great respectively.

- 360 is pacing up a higher rate than the PS3.  That's really interesting, all things considered.

- And, as has been mentioned, GT5's week 3 drop off was very impressive.  See Sony!  Releasing a big game during the holidays DOES make a difference.  Well, in initial numbers anyway.

- Kinect is picking up.  Is this due just to the holiday, or word of mouth?  We'll have to see how it continues to trend, but 5 million seems downright EASY for it at this rate.

Sports Champions (PS3)

Is sports champions bundled in EMEAA? 

OT- GT5 is a beast, and seece's avatar reminds me of some delicious videos Ive seen

From my understanding there is no Move bundle, but there is a Starter Pack that includes SC, Eye and a Move controller.  So technically that could be compared to Kinect's stand alone bundle that includes Kinect Adventures.

Reason I posted this comparison, though, is that Kinect Sports ISN'T bundled at all.


Starter pack doesn't include Sports Champions (or any game for that matter) in Europe.

 

so that means you can't use Sport Champions in Europe to detect the number of unique ps3 move controllers? only in USA

Thanks for the info, I was wondering if it was bundled so we could do a better move/kinect comparison

It's sad to see people thinking that because PS3 isn't dominating over 360 it has to be adjusted up. You're not looking at this logically.

Down 15k YoY, with no sudden price cut and new model? That s SPECTACULAR. GT5 isn't as big as those 2 combined, GT5 wasn't the gateway that stopped millions buying a PS3, it's high price was. Now GT5 has given it a nice boost, but to think it's high numbers there should be pulling in tens of thousands of new buyers is odd, remember, the PS3 has been out 3 and a half years in EMEAA, a LOT of the GT fans will have bought the system. I mean .. we saw a bigger bump for MGS4 .. because it launched close to launch of the PS3.

If GT5 hadn't released this holiday, I imagin it would have got a bigger bump than 360 this week.

Some good points. 15k down is practically flat. It's just that the 360 is so massively up YoY, everything else pales in comparison.

I can't speak for the rest of EMEAA, but the X factor final, in each of the final 4 ad breaks for the season, were Kinect ads adveritisng one kinect game per ad. Those ads cost in the region of 250k per 30 seconds ...


MS are laying serious money into advertising, that and of course Kinect IS getting amazing word of mouth.

So true. Here in the States, it's loved. I have an uncle and a couple of cousins who just picked it up, and they ate it up!

And my friends at school think it is a piece of shit.

Anecdotal evidence is great.

Now I can only hope that GT5 see's a drop similar to EMEAA in NA ... I've been seeing many ads for it. Especially during the VGA's.



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.
