Forums - Sales - Americas Up - 22nd January 2011

Interesting.. Seems like all three consoles will be at a virtual tie this week worldwide. I actually see this happening several weeks, barring any major releases from any of the three consoles.

Also, DKC at 13 makes me a sad panda :( but it's still holding up decently. Won't reach my prediction of 12 million, but looks like it should make it to around 8 million when it's all said and done, which are great numbers for a game without "Wii" or "Mario" in the title. Hell, I recall many people claiming this game would sell 1-2 million, so it's already exceeded the expectations of many.

The PS3-360 war is becoming very interesting with these numbers, can't wait for Japan.

i normally like to comment on sales number. after all, this is a tracking website.

 

however, with VGC's 'preference' on a console and then having to go back time and time again to adjust it down. What's the point of commenting?

I agree the constant adjusting (in large amounts in some cases) makes the discussing of the sales seem pretty pointless when there is such a high margin for error.. I heard the 360 was adjusted down like over a million units??

But it's better than nothing, and there are no better alternative at the present time, at least for free.



Damn,everything is so close,kinda too weird to be true.

Nice LBP2 debut,though I expected a bit more,but it's way ahead of LBP's FW,so it doesn't matter .

GT5 holding worse than GT4,maybe it's because it sold better in the first 7 weeks?



Another statistical tie. Touché



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

LBP2 and ME2 are disappointing...you Americans go crazy with the 360 huh? ;)



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey

I take it this means 360 shortages in the US were exaggerated at best.

LBP2 sold a ton more than LBP 1 in the US... in EMEAA it only sold slighlty more.

but dont you let the facts get in the way of a good stereotype... carry on.

LBP1 had it's street date broken in the US. Maybe if you factor that in EMEAA and USA are doing the same relatively YOY.



Tease.

ME2 really impressive, what did you guys expect from a year old port?

100k in one week is really good... It's gonna reach 1 mio. lifetime.



hmm...Sony must really attack in the US...cut the price of the PS3 for the Killzone 3 release or do a PS3/KZ3 bundle for 299 and after that a price cut for Socom 4 and things look different...if i dont see a price cut after the Socom 4 release Sony just dont wanna do better in the US and must be kind of pleased with the PS3 in americas...
