 People were saying since it wasn't performing like GT4 weekly, it would fall way behind. Good to see it won't be falling behind (while still being way ahead WW).

And an important point like this article (Gran Turismo 5: This is How You Support a Game) showed.

 "Any game that gets traded in a lot and/or people don't want to buy will have a lower price. Games in high demand or that rarely get traded in see higher prices. Currently on GameStop's website, Gran Turismo 5 is selling for $54.99 used, the highest possible price they put on a used game. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (the latter featuring EA's Online Pass, by the way) are both highly rated games that are currently selling for $34.99 used."

1.  Amazon always has games cheaper than other stores.  Does that mean every game for sale right now has had a price cut?  Wal-mart, Best Buy, and GameStop, the three biggest video game retailers in the US, all still have it for $59.99.

2.  You think we track Amazon?  Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

I have no doubt that they account for online retailers in their figures, but they do not get any data from Amazon directly.

wii is overtracked

Here we go...

Any evidence of this, by any chance? 

I'm not saying you're wrong (infact, you may well be right), but you need evidence to back up your claims when you say something like that


to me the evidence is simple: nintendo released shipment numbers that showed we have been overtracking the wii for quite a while.  this site didn't feel the need to adjust despite that evidence.  as such, there is no reason not to believe that this site isn't continuing to overtrack the wii.  if this site refuses to adjust we'll probably end up with yet another quarter where our "sold to consumer" numbers are larger than nintendo's "shipped to retailer" numbers.

but hey, wii is in the ballpark of 90 M now so as long as we are within 9M of the real number we should be happy, yes?


A better explanation than:

Its called I'm a DM for Gamestop and I sell Wii's every single day of the year.  We aren't pushing this kind of volume.

Just because you are District Manager of Gamestop doesn't really mean shit.  You can't base anything off what your locations sell compared to others.  Even if you were manager of an entire state you still couldn't base anything off that.   You only have a very general assumption of what is going on in the nation/worldwide.  You can't come up with anything accurate.  Even though Gamestop is the biggest video game retailer in USA there are still plenty of other stores and online sales that you have no clue about.  It would be almost like me going into a few stores and noticing that Wii's are sold out.  Must be sold out everywhere then...


You are aware DM's talk to other DM's all day every day and recieve daily updates and e-mails about company wide numbers correct...........

I hope the 3ds gets better numbers soon, I know OoT, mario kart, super mario, star fox & kid icarus are going to help a lot, but still... And blazeblue is coming at the end of month... yeah, I know is not going to increase 3ds numbers but I do love the game,,,,


I too love Blazblue and hope that it becomes more popular on this side of the world.
