Porcupine_I on 17 December 2010

this is lame! i only came into the thread to see how many "surly" jokes had been made!

 

come on people! nobody??



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Depends on Kinect and NA.

Kinect is doing ok in NA, yesterday (or so) Amazon received Kinect Stock, Kinect went into the first place, and today there's no stock of it, and there are more than 400 people trying to sell it at a high price...

 

I think:

NA - 950k

EU - 350k

This is so wrong.

It is written surely, not surly.



Above: still the best game of the year.

I think it's possible!

By the way, has it happened before or will this be the first time for >1M sales in a week??

i doubt it it needs emeaa and japan to achieve that amount, and emeaa/japan is wii's domain right now



it's the future of handheld

Well 360 boosted up passed 300k in emeaa. It's putting up strong numbers there too. I don't believe it needs Japan to hit 1 million. 360 is strong despite GT5 in emeaa. But it all comes down to whether it has enough consoles out there in NA. Either way it's gonna have another solid week.

While its certainly possible I don't think it will simply because its pretty hard to find in America right now...and that will only get worse.


Hard to find? There's plenty on Amazon. Gamestop only has the 4GB Kinect online. They can be found if you really want one though.

As for XBox 360 selling a million next week, it's possible, but it'll have to sell over 750 in the U.S. I think. Only 400K this week was a little low in the U.S. We'll see what happens. Japan will be irrelevant anyways. May only sell 5-6K over there. The Wii is just killing the competition. People who thought they had no chance this holiday is eating crow right about now.

I'm calling Wal Marts as we speak trying to track down a 360 (that's not a 4gb).  I'm not having too much luck, though.  I want that $75 gift card, bigger harddrive, and superior design.  I found my 360 was turned on yesterday morning despite the fact that I hadn't played it since Sunday.  It works fine but in the back of my mind, I keep thinking it's gonna explode!!

800k in America is waaay too much of an overestimation IMO. What would cause it to suddenly double in sales from last week? Especially if the shortage thing is true?
