Damn KZ3 looks overtracked in the U.S.A. Someone tell me I'm wrong!

Maybe you are wrong because NPD does't track the PS3 Killzone 3 bundle... VGC tracks.

357k may still to much even with bundle

Now that we're reporting on games at the title rather than SKU level, it's important to note several that sold well and would have made the top 10 on a SKU unit sales ranking basis. Those include Just Dance 2 on Wii, Killzone 3 on PS3, and Zumba Fitness on Wii."

Or Fight Night and MLB did just way better. But I'm guessing it's probably both.

I mean the Killzone 3 legs just looked unrealistic to begin with, starting at week 3.

Only down from 120k to 75k, then up to 98k and then down again to 71k.

 

And what did I say ? Of course NBA 2K11 is on the list. It has been undertracked every month.
I think we have ALL versions at ~70k for the whole month. Hilarious.

We don't really have any numbers to work with.  At best we know it sold less than MLB the show (not including bundles).  Since that is the lowest single SKU on the list, and we know KZ3 made the top 10 on the non combined list.  It could just be a really high entry point this month.  After all Black Ops did 790k plus last month and is at number 5.  Just Dance 2 did 554k last month and is off the top ten (combined) entirely.

So Killzone 3 sold good with bundles.

Nice.

This seems to be a recurring problem with sports games in Americas. PES 2010 sold 600k in Latin America alone. We have total combined Americas sales at 700k.

Well, Wii deserves it. How does it expect to sell with no games?

It can when the Killzone 160GB is $299 and the standalone 160GB PS3 is also $299.

 

Which one do you think people would buy?
