Forums - Sales - Americas Pre-Order Chart Is Up!

themanwithnoname on 12 February 2011

Glad to see we have a gimped pre-order chart to look forward to every week as well.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

MvsC dissapointed me, I expected it to have 50k in preorders in it's two last weeks, it doesn't look likely now.

I'm actually surprised by how well it's doing. It probably won't beat Street Fighter IV's first week but it will do great.

I actually don't care if the game does good or not, what I care is that it isn't according to my prediction schedule for Conegamer's Awesome prediction league. It SHOULD have gotten to 160k in preorders if it wanted to follow my plan. Stupid game, hope it crashes, burns, flops and and both companies bankrupt and their employes are fired and they fight with their wives, go to drink in Moe's bar, drive like crazy in the highway, crash and burn and explode.



Above: still the best game of the year.

damn killzone 3 is failing thought it would get 25k-30k preorders this week in americas but instead got only 13k!?!?!!@@##!#

i actually have no idea how this game will sell espically since i haven't seen killzone 2 preorders

KZ3 should get to about 200-220k preorders with about 350-400k for the Americas week 1. It should do another 400-450k in EMEAA bringing it to around 850k or so week 1. I wouldn't be surprised if it did 900k, but I'm leaning more towards 850k (100k more than KZ2).


in america it looks like KZ3 might only get to 150-175k preorders. that leades me to believe about a 275 fw in americas. killzone 2 did around 325 k first week in emeaa so i expect the same for 3, and i guess about 40k for japan. thats 640k first week. thats in the middle of where i think it could be. 575k-725k first week.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Killzone 3 continues to look unimpressive.Really looking like a pretty poor launch for an exclusive shooter.

Pokemon is a monster.

Gears of War 3 at number 3 with no launch date and still a long way away. Pretty crazy stuff.

Looks like Bulletstorm will have a pretty decent opening...I imagine it will sell around 3 million lifetime on the 360.

I think Gears 3 will probably rape the other GoW games for FW and lifetime sales....seriously Epic has to really eff things up to make it sell around what the other one's sold.

I'm thinking more 250-300k FW in Americas and something like 250k FW in EMEAA for a total of 550k FW.

I feel like that's pretty accurate but perhaps I'm wrong to have it so low.

We'll see who wins ;)

I'd rather see you win, though.

Why so low for EMEAA? KZ2 opened to a lot more than that week 1, I can't see why it would drop like that.

It seems that KZ3 lacks the buzz 2 had. Im afraid that it could end up lower sales then the first one bothe fw and lt. Lets hope that Im wrong
