Forums - Sales - WW UP-20th August

I wonder why the increase in sales was so small across the "MEAA" regions.

UK was 64%, the rest of Europe was around 50% and Middle East, Africe & Asia only raised ~27%


In UK, the PS3 is under 200£. In Europe, the price is 250€. It's a psychological barrier.

i really think ps3 could use a Tale's Of,Kingdom Heart's,Dragon Quest or another Final Fantasy in Japan

atleast it will see 2 of those


Japan? PS3 just actually needs games releasing. It's done quite well to stay at the level it has recently.

Monster Hunter released on the 25th. Tales is releasing on the 8th September. Ni No Kuni is releasing November 17th. Final Fantasy XIII-2 is releasing in December.

Should be a big few Months in Japan for PS3. I probably missed out a few big games too.

Edit:
EMEAA Software is beyond terrible. I hope it's undertracked, because those are some really, really bad numbers.

PS3 increases 44%

Software increases 8%

I suppose that's okay for the first few days. The coming Weeks are more important though. Will it increase again next Week?


Considering all the old SW re-entries we saw in the PAL charts I'm pretty sure we're undertracking PS3 SW in EMEAA. I'm almost certain we're undertracking Xenoblade as well. It sold out in France and the first shipment there was something like 28k IIRC. And both the regular and collectors editions made the top 10 in Germany.



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

Week Ending 13th Aug 2011

-Friday

WII-87,554,851 X360-55,373,318 PS3-52,001,962

-Today

WII-87,553,688 X360-55,373,508 PS3-51,997,644


it seems everytime ps3 gains in sales that VGC adjust its total WW numbers at this rate it wont ever get out of 3rd

och at ps3 sales i and many others believe in over 200k. . . theres always future adjustments that could happen to this weeks sales and most likley the next few weeks should be higher

i think ps3 could do better if their were jrpg's getting released for it similar to last gen. I know Xillia will give it a big boost aswell as FF13-2 but if it had a consistant amount of BIG Name Jrpg's coming more often i think it's weekly japan sale's would settle at around 50k each week

but the thing is all the rpg dev's from last gen jumped straight on to the psp and ds and the 1's that did actually hit ps3 alway's got snatched up by microsoft with the 1 year exclusive deal basically hampering any consistant sales numbers ps3 potentially could have settled at

the only 1 they got to take in this whole gen in Japan was Final Fantasy 13 and the next 1 will be Tale's Of Xillia

wait what? are you saying ps3 get's adjusted down each week? im lost



Finally!

Apparently this was posted a 10th of a second earlier, plus it's got the SW charts, so I'm posting here.

OK bump for PS3, good if it goes up next week and/or that it holds well for weeks to come, otherwise underwhelming.

3DS holding well.

Really poor software numbers. Japanese games dominating the charts.

Nothing to coment of the rest.

The only developer that stayed true to what it was last gen is probably Gust. That's why I'm happy to see them thrive.



Xenoblade does bad as expected, HW is fine though.
