Why don't you beleive this data? Then bet on them.
X360 is a bit supply constrained, it's not impossible for the wii to be in 1st position. But for sure it will not double them.
People really get upset by Mario Kart Wii beating GT5...
Were anyone honestly expecting any different?
You are afraid. It's ok. You are not that deluded then, just in denial.

Not they don't.Just some people are ''very happy'' about it,even though the 2 games have nothing to do with eachother,rather than the fact that they are both racing-games.
Have you guys ever visited boxofficemojo?That's a real tracking website when it comes to Movies.
They never compare movies this way,only the movies that are very similar with eachother and/or launched at the same time of the year.
The VGChartz community should learn from Box Office Mojo's community.

I am not pleased! >:( Also, I believe someone else mentioned this before, but the top 12 selling Sega games have Sonic as a character. Awesome. Anywho... It's that time again folks. THIS WEEK IN GAMES STARRING MAMMALS!
Donkey Kong improves over week 3 for some impressive sales!
Epic Mickey holds on for a strong second week over 200k!
Sonic Colors DS bests its Wii brother!
The legs on this title are very fluffy and cuddly!
Sonic continues to speed up the sales charts with great legs! Endangered Species of the Week:
Why is this game not selling well in the Americas or in EMEAA? This is a great value with three great games people. Get to the purchasing already. >:( |
Great games selling great numbers is what I like seeing! Sly should be selling better than this... like a LOT better, I mean it's three of PS2s best platformers put together in a package, much longer than the other collection packages and puts a lot of games this gen to shame... I hope this doesn't hurt Sly 4...
Also this weeks console sales are just... wow

Yeah but we're just talking about a single week here, not the whole month of december (I'm referring to all of your recent posts now).
Look this week the Wii got a gift card which accelerated its boost (it is 45% up from last week, while PS3 is up just slightly and the 360 is down).
The Xbox360 didn't get a boost this week because people are waiting for next week's giftcard and it was supply constraint to a certain extend.
Now instead of looking at this week and claiming "the Wii is overtracked! It won't outsell the Xbox360 2:1" (nobody said it would! And VGChartz data doesn't even indicate this so it's a claim without any basis) you should take a look at next week.
Next week the Wii boost will be smaller (because people rushed to buy it with the giftcard this week) while those customers who waited for the Xbox360 to get its giftcard will rush to the store next week. That means the Xbxo360 will get a way bigger boost than the Wii next week.
Basically if we assume the 360 will get the same boost the Wii did ( 50%) that puts its next week numbers at 600k units. If the Wii is flat (it gets deals next week, too but I have no idea how to factor them in) that would put the consoles at less than 900k units again. And I'd expect the 360 boost to be slightly higher since the giftcard is 75$.
Maybe they'll even be tied next (like 800k for both, I don't know). But since the Wii didn't outsell the 360 2:1 besides this week so far and since it won't outsell the 360 2:1 next week accusing VGChartz of overtracking the Wii because "it won't outsell the 360 2:1 in December" is stupid because VGChartz doesn't show the wii outselling the 360 by 2:1 for the whole month of December at all.
Is that fair enough to you?

GT5 holds up well. Wii software doing very well, as usual.
Kinect continues to rock on.
Wii60 doing great numbers as usual, though it seems the 360 is having shortages.
PS3 doing okay, but not good, however it should get a good boost in the coming week due to the gift cards.
