YOY Comparison


X360 Down 67% ( major drop from last years price cut now overlapping)

PSP Down 35% ( even with price cut this year)

DS/3DS Down 29% (awful considering it includes a new console )

PS3 Down 27% (needs a price cut)

Wii Down 21% ( even with a price cut this year)


It's interesting, DS+GBA sales exactly 6 years ago showed a drop of 28% YoY. The difference is that while 90k meant be just under PS2, the king of that time, now it means be on the bottom...I guess times have really changed XD Eventually things will change again if 3DS goes down in price and obtains a better support.



CURRENTLY PLAYING: Xenoblade (Wii), Super mario 3D land (3DS), Guild Wars (PC)

Wii, this week: 121k
Gamecube, five years ago: 14k

...and the 3DS also had yet another strong week of sales.

Unfair comparison, GC didn't even have shovelwaresathon to keep its sales going.

Playstation 2, the last generation leader, five years ago: 247k.

Yeah, that comparison is better.

During the holidays 2011 Wii will be back on top for sure. Xenoblade in europe and Zelda worldwide will ensure that.

The 3DS will have high holiday sales too.

Xbox360 sales depends upon the money microsoft invest in marketing.

PS3 will get a price cute before the holidays and will have better sales, but of course much lower than wii the sales.

Just 2-3 more weeks and Wii will be below X360 and back to pre price drop apathy state.


i think the same, 2 or 3 weeks and wii will be below ps3 and 360

the price cut it had has not cemented it with good sales, in fact they should not have chopped price looking back, many said wii will rule when it gets price drop i guess they have been proven wrong

if the cheapest console just got even more cheaper and still doesnt stabalise at a decent rate then that console is dropping off



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk
