Someone had to do it.

360 averaged 136.25k per week.

Wii averaged 113.5k per week.

Seriously what the fuck is going on, how did Wii and Ps3 just rebound(okay I can guess ps3, but wii?). First time where all three are undertracked badly, and it looks like Wii isn't dead yet. 


Now think about, I am first to talk shit, don't you think NPD has more explaining to do than VGchartz, there nothing that explain this sudden rise, nothing. 

360 has the shortages being sorted out.

PS3 has $50 promotions from top retailers all throughout February.

Wii has... uhhh... I am honestly 100% confused on this one.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

But Move is dead, dead, that what the internet told me.


MOVE made almost as much money as Kinect. LOLWUT.  Isn't that exceptional?!

25% yoy growth = thats for ps3 revenues isnt it????

"Breaking down the console growth, the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 up about 25% in sales (dollar value)"

I have no idea what that translates into, we'll see soon though I'm sure.


That could potentially be even higher than 450k since sales would probably be more weighted towards the low-end PS3 SKU this month since the Killzone bundle was $300.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

I was right! 360 first, PS3/Wii second!

The only thing I wasn't right was that I thought it would be boring.

Looking forward to this. In my opinion it will be boring, 360 first, Wii/PS3 second.

I want more software sales. That's all I wanted actually.

The Wii doing better is the only random WTF. As in logic doesn't fit there, all of them being that up, is also wtf, but some of it is logical.

Killzone 3 done better than expected? NPD doesn't count copies with hardware.
