All numbers are depressed. Wii numbers would be much better if it had some games, but it seems doomed to abandonment.
I didn't think a very smart move from Nintendo to launch Wii Play: Motion.
3DS tops 3 million, luckily the games are already underway.

Sad when OOT in Americas didn't sell as well as it did in Japan, considering Zelda isn't as hot in Japan. Neither did it move as many 3DS units,very close to where Japan hit. I hope Nintendo starts realizing that many still think this is an extension of the DS family and not a new system on its own.


OoT 3D in Americas has sold more in one week than Japan has in two weeks. Also, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Last week, 3DS sales for Americas were 20k, and this week they're 44k. That's a 24k boost, and Japan's first-week increase was 24k to 40k, which is only a 16k boost. You got your number wrongs in both areas.

 

Although, I completely agree that Nintendo needs to advertise the 3DS as a new platform. Even my entire family who I showed it to thought it was just another DS, even when I showed them the 3D. "So it's a DS with 3D?"

i swear if they dropped the xbox to $1 in japan it would still only sell 2k

m$ really has to do something because 1.9k is just a joke i mean in 2007/8 they were doing easily 9k while ps3 wasn't that much higher what happened??

They stopped releasing exclusive jRPG every three months.

Yea that in the fact that MGS4 Basically made the 360 not worth investing anymore.

So here we have a Japanese PS3 RPG, 3 weird Japan only PSP games, Yakuza of the end on the charts again AND a exclusive PS3 Bleach game. All charting and Wii Play motion flopping hard??? Makes sense to me. cant wait to see how BLeach does in other areas, if its halfway decent, im getting it.

I can't understand the guys "disapointed" with inFAMOUS 2 sales because:

1. It is tracking over inFAMOUS;
2. There are digital sales at launch (I brought mine in PSN) * inFAMOUS receive digital sales after 1 year

11
inFamous 2 (PS3)
Sony Computer Entertainment, Action
3 63,150 512,374
12
inFamous (PS3)
Sony Computer Entertainment, Action
3 79,977 478,586

It dropped much faster though :(. I can't see digital sales being that much weekly really, maybe 5k-10k max per week.


Infamous 2 has 886 ratings on Euro and 1687 ratings of the US PSN Store. So that's at least 2573 people. 

And probably 3-10 times as many depending on how many people actually rate a game after buying

 

For comparison's sake the Uncharted Beta has 11000 rating combined on Euro and US, so if Naughty Dog release a figure for the amount of downloads we could have an estimate.

oh my


there was no dig there

i always seen you post the info in past WW up threads very consistently i think the last week in May was the the last one you did

"I was working, you know...? work.... ?  (perhaps you dont know)" now thats a dig, i dont believe your work has stopped you from posting the info that requires very little time to post considering that your post history shows that you have been quite active since your last YOY info post

i'll admit that i have missed plenty of sales threads but thats b/c i wasnt  able to be on the site meaning i havent even logged in for extended periods of time
