 Okay, basically thanks to Americas, but tracking PS3 in Americas is easier than in EMEAA. I won't be suprised if it was also undertracked in EMEAA too. I checked March weekly sales again, and indeed the gap is bigger now, and no more "statistical tie" shit.

I guess NPD adjustments come this week... so PS3 was the most affected because it was the most undertracked comparing NPD x VGC in March.

Now about EMEAA... the shipped numbers will released today .

WHAT? Today? Sony Microsoft and Nitendo?

Nintendo alread out this morning: http://www.vgchartz.com/article/85780/nintendo-misses-wii-ds-hw-projections-amp-3ds-sw-projection/

So bad numbers... just 1.37m Wiis and 1.83m DSs... 15.08m Wiis in fiscal year *yeah Sony could beat Wii*.

Sony is today night... and Microsoft April 28.

Wii 2 was confirmed too.

Damn how did I miss that I was on the website for quite a long time now. Thanks.

1.83m Dss is not that surprising I guess. But wtf with 1.37m Wiis?

Console Wii
Total
2,614,115

They shipped 1.25m less than what they supposedly sold? Was there a 2m gap between sold and shipped back in December 2010? Or was it overtracked by 1m? (btw how could this happen).

Sony tonight, do you know when? (so I know if I have to stay up late or not)

EDIT: found the prediction that was posted on VGC:

"there is little reason to believe Nintendo shipped less than 2.35m Wiis and 2.50m units of the original DS in the March 2011 quarter."

Seems like Wii had negative sales this quarter .

For Nintendo Wii is dead now... Wii 2 coming soon.



Those Crysis & Homefront PS3 chart sales differ from the sales on their individual pages.

hmm...



GT5 is at 6,380,000 according to VGChartz. You still think it will pass 10 million by 2013? LOL!! It'll be lucky to breaf 7 million by the end of the year and it's not going to sell over 1 million in 2012. Yes, I haven't gone anywhere. I'll be right here on New Year Day 2013. lol!!

Maybe you didn't notice but GT5 just re-entered several of the PAL charts this week. It's likely to sell over 40k this week. GT games are known for their amazing legs. And sales next year are probably going to be well over 1 million. Let's do a simple comparisson, shall we? Uncharted 2 in 2010, it's first full year on the market, sold 1.62 million. In the final 23 weeks of the year it sold 820k. Or in other words just about half of its sales for the year. In the first 29 weeks of this year GT5 has sold 1.1 million and GT5 is likely to have even better legs than U2. And in its second year U2 should top out at about 900k-1 million. And of course this doesn't even account for any adjustments we're likely to see once Polyphony update their shipment page.



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

Just look at the nonsense behind the bump. Not worth it to give much attention.


LOL

Yeah.. whatever you say. It has  17 months to sell over 3.4 million. I don't think it'll make it, but we'll see. We'll see how strong it's legs are. I could care less what U2 does. Halo also has legs, even after 2 years it has sold strong. Nothing new.

good point. glad i was MIA then lol.



Well it did break 7 million copies in 2011. It must have sold close to 1 million in 2011. It's still a long ways away from 10 million. I don' think it can sell another 2 million in one year. Good luck. lol!!
