K3 had a good second week, better than I expected. If those legs can hang on for just a little bit it can turn out to be a pretty good result.

This can be a silly question and probably been asked before so apologies in advance if it was, I missed the answer.

Are the 3DS figures being thrown onto the DS figures?

2nd week drops:

KZ3 -57%

Bulletstorm (360) -54%

Bulletstorm (PS3) -40%

Bulletstorm on PS3 has the best hold over percentage, I think it can leg it out to over 100K. Quite a large drop for KZ3, but not a worringly large drop. Similar drop for Bulletstorm on 360 and I think word of mouth will give Bulletstorm some decent legs.

Big HW drops expected I suppose.

Congrats to 360 for cracking 1 million in Spain and Portugal.


That's pretty misleading. The PS3 version didn't have far to fall so of course the percentage is lower.

Not really. After a 31K opening I would not have been at all surprised to see a 10K (-68%) week 2 for BS on PS3. That it only dropped 40% indicates BS can end up with non-attrocious sales on PS3 in EMEAA and relative to its opening week might have better legs than the 360 version. Now don't go misinterpreting that statement.

I'm not bagging on it or anything but I actually thought it would be a bit higher. Wasn't there a limited edition Pokemon bundle?

Well, it could hvae been higher, though many people who actually want a Pokemon game by now have a DS.

People probably want to play that Pokemon on 3DS too, just for bragging rights. .

Can Nintendo meet their projection of 86.93M ( 2.3M) end of march? with these numbers they could be about 100K over their projection, 87M plus.

Well now you can't just do it like that....bring 20th week, 50th week and lifetime to get some perspective.

Yeah I can after 5 or 35 weeks ;).

Black Ops, GT5, Reach... all these games are below 20th week.

And I guess nothing will change because GT5 will end selling 6-7 million in EMEAA.

And again, it isn't hard to have good legs in percentage terms when the first week was so abysmal to begin with. I'm not representing anything, I just find percentages become increasingly irrelevant when dealing with small numbers.
