Yaay! PS3 won. I'm impressed with the 360's numbers though. I guess shortages are over. Here's to PS3 winning next week.



 Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move,  and Kinect.

Someone confirme that? I know it below DS and GBA.


Didn't they sell all they shipped?

~93% - shipped 400k sold 374k

That's or the first day. Chances are good that those last 36K have sold by now. I'm just wondering if Nintendo has another shipment on the way.

Anyway, it dominated the hardware category as we expected it would. Now we have to wait for the EMEA and US launches.

Above: still the best game of the year.

Did people really expect PS3 owners to buy both KZ3 and Bulletstorm in the same week?


I'm sure some gamers did. Looks like most just bought it for their XBox 360 and then bought KZ3 for the PS3. That's what I did anyways, Both games are worth playing.



HA! two green machine titles in top 40, not bad, not bad :) (this is for japan only)

I'm surprised at the extent of the KZ3 boost for a relatively low week 1. Was there something else that bumped PS3 in addition to KZ3? The LG dispute hadn't hit before 26 Feb, so there's no panic buying factor in EMEAA, that should hit in this weeks stats.

PS3 Bulletstorm numbers amply demonstrate the idiocy of releasing a new FPS IP against KZ3. What was EA thinking? I get this horrible feeling that there was something intentional in sending Bulletstorm out to die on PS3. Has there been a multiplat shooter that's failed so badly on PS3 yet opened reasonably well on 360? I can't believe BS would have done this badly on PS3 if it was released with a bit of daylight between it and a PS3 exclusive shooter that appeals to the same sort of demographic.

Its probably due to the fact that there are a lot more multiconsole hardcore owners these days and anyone with both the Xbox 360 and PS3 would get the 360 version due to the Gears 3 beta. Bulletstorm is a hardcore game so that supports the idea that the hardcore audience would get the best platform. It wasn't Killzone 3 which ate Bulletstorms sales as much as it was Bulletstorn 360 version.



Tease.

Maybe, but Dead Space 2 including Dead space extraction did not cause higher sales for the PS3.   I do not care for gears online , I only like the campaign. So when I pick up Bulletstorm I wiill still buy it for PS3.



Okay...

PS360 are now at over 100 Million?

360 has overtaken Wii for the Year so far.

3DS has had a great opening.



                            

okay killzone 3 numbers if it had better advertising it could have done 800k a lot of people didn't like killzone 2 so many people did not buy killzone 3. i can't belive gt5 and black ops numbers aren't updated! vgchartz is really starting to piss me of it's been a month now! plus the numbers come so much later now days

Actually, no. 

It sold out its initial shipment, if it was a 1,000,000 shipment it would likely be above 500k FW

Also, I don't think Nintendo will be crying over the fact they're a few k behind the launch of the DS, soon to be the MOST SUCCESSFUL CONSOLE EVER

Amongst handhelds.  I still hold it isn't as impressive as PS2's home console sales, but then again it hasn't passed yet anyway!  :P 

Will do this year though


Also Wii will top PS1's LT sales in Americsa's in 2 weeks.  Wii could do that 2.3M iwata had hoped too.
