I still doubt it will do 3M, but there is no denying that it is doing much better than I (and many other also) expected.

If it is doing 40K plus by week 10 then I will give it every chance.

As for sales funny about PSP v 3DS in Japan - is there a shortage issue for the 3DS there?

Nintendo is having a really great time with three consoles all doing very well.

2

Wii Sports (Wii) Nintendo, Sports

228

2,265,471

76,286,435

5

Wii Sports Resort (Wii) Nintendo, Sports

93

1,732,145

25,799,975

That's 4 milions without something like 3k ;)

And tie ratio is lifetime for 2011 you have:

0,58 games per 1 PS3

0,39 games per 1 Wii (inclusind bundled soft)

0,55 games per 1 X360

Nope plenty of supply everywhere

Yup, the PSP is actually the one that has been having shortage issues all year.

all console NEED a price cut this year, even the PS3. Without a price cut, it won't be able to outdo last year. It's already down YOY considerably.

What did you expecct? Did you believe those people who said that the 360 would own this year at all?

This whole 'Kinect effect' seemed like a made-up fantasy to me, but now I'm not so sure...

I reckon it'll be below Wii for most of the year now

I know 3 mil of that is bundled, but come on... WSR WS is total to those 4M ;) Still with 35M of userbase adventage that's pathetic Actually, Wii Sports sales for this year are roughly 2 mil, and WSR sales around 1mil. So that's 3 mil Bolded, without any major SW releases that's pretty amazing. As can be seen, the tie ratio is higher than that for the PS3, taking out Wii Sports it's just behind, but impressive nonetheless... SW is pretty much the same as PS3 per unit ATM 2 Wii Sports (Wii) Nintendo, Sports 228 2,265,471 76,286,435 5 Wii Sports Resort (Wii) Nintendo, Sports 93 1,732,145 25,799,975 That's 4 milions without something like 3k ;)   And tie ratio is lifetime for 2011 you have: 0,58 games per 1 PS3 0,39 games per 1 Wii (inclusind bundled soft) 0,55 games per 1 X360

Oh...I don't know what numbers I was looking at then

I reckon Wii SW will explode with SS, Xenoblade, Pikmin 3, Conduit 2 etc. still to come, and a 'dry spell' up the road for the 360...

Wierd place for this thread.

Awesome to see DS still doing well. Wonder how much more it will sell before they stop making them 20-30million?

You were looking at lifetime  tie ratio  ; ), not 2011 tie ratio. 3 million bundled is for 2011not lifetime. Not that it really matters anyway.

Probably

Like I said, no games releases though that have really made any impact, so those evergreen titles are truly amazing in that sense
