Wii sales are great but not as great as last year.

XBX360 bust may be thanks to the S model and the low price.

Too bad about PS3 but is not as bad as one could think.



AHH KINECT! Not the slim. That helped but it was kinect that moved the units. Kinect moved close to a million units world wide this week.  Big numbers.

I dont get whats so bad about PS3 sales tho last year 360 sold 700k WW same time period and ppl were rejoicing but now ps3 sold near 900k its suddenly "bad" LMAO? really?..........

Heh, that's why sometimes you just have to close your eyes when you read some comments. The X360 is doing better, not PS3 doing much worse. Last year it had Slim, this Year X360 has Slim and Kinect (no Move came out earlier and isn't "really" popular or pushing hardware). And I don't want to say something because I'll get banned but, let's see what happens in late January =D just for the fun and the meltdowns. Inb4 Bu bu but... :p

Well yea, I put 12 500 in Japan, because that's what it's gonna do probably, and no matter what, it's not really important x)

So what are going to be the meltdowns? All sales fall in jan. everyone expects it. SO there will be no Bu BU BU BUT!

I think its the Americas numbers they're talking about, though, not so much WW and for the biggest week of the year they're not great.  That's what this thread is supposed to be mostly about ...

Haha crazy. I think I'll be buying that game next week. It is even showing better legs on a 5M userbase. Whats the attach rate ATM, 40%? Insanity inanity!





Tease.

Around the Network

7 Kinect games in the top 50 SW sales. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! now who was saying that kinect software has sold poorly? I think we can put that claim to rest.

Last year the PS3 had a redesign AND a $100 price cut.  This year 360 had a redesign and Kinect.  What's the difference?  360, with a $150 optional add-on pushed more consoles this holiday than a PS3 that was $100 cheaper last holiday.  So its not as simple a comparison as just slim-to-slim.

whats not great? WW numbers? NA numbers? I still don't see either way how its "not great".....

LAST YEAR same time:

360 = 740k WW

PS3 = 1mWW or (999k)

360 = 470k NA

PS3 = 450k NA

If your saying selling 400k in NA is not great then why were 360 fans happy with 360 sales last year? for WW sales ps3 sold  more than 360 did last year which 360 fans were rejoicing as "great sales"........

what now? dont tell me anything less than 1m WW and selling 400k in NA is all of a sudden not great anymore when last year it was great for the 360?

Well I don't remember a lot of "great sales" talk last year for the 360, but there always will be SOMEONE out there saying it.  Anyway, here are some numbers to analyze: as close to similar sales weeks as we can get for the last 4 years for Americas (and yes, that IS what THIS thread is about).

  2007 2008 2009 2010
PS3 240,957 198,079 454,361 410,749
360 379,512 411,523 471,500 709,684

Now, look at the sales trends.  Note that the 360 had a price cut in 2008 and a redesign this year while the PS3 had a price cut and redesign in 2009.  Now look at the 2010 numbers and tell all of us why the PS3 sales would be considered great for this week in 2010, please.

Its mainly a comparison, where as 360 has improved PS3 hasnt, I think people are referring to this.
