Damn you Japan, preventing PS3 from hitting 250K

Great start Batman AC.

So with adjustments it looks like PS3 has been selling >200K per week for 9 of the last 10 weeks. Looks like price cut has done its job nicely.

I was hoping for 150K opening for All 4 One. I hope it'll make it to 750K or so. I'm thinking this game shouldn't take too much in sales to be profitable as it's probably recycling a lot of what's been in the other R&C games this gen.

Dark Souls sales
R3 sales

Man, even Wii's SW sales are falling away. Shows install base can only sustain so much SW sales.

wait, am I reading that right?

Batman sold more on PS3 than 360?

huh?!?

Why is that surprising? The first one sold more on the PS3 as well.

Action/adventure genre always sells closer between 360 and PS3 in Americas. And with EMEAA PS3 almost always has the better SW sales of the action/adventure genre. LT it will come down to whether EMEAA or Americas has better legs for this game. Based on the fact that Arkham Asylum on 360 in Americas sold better that AA on PS3 in EMEAA I'd say 360 version will leg it out better in Americas than PS3 version in EMEAA. Which will mean lifetime AA on 360 should just pip the PS3 version.

3.5-4 million lifetime for both I'm thinking, maybe more.

PS3 on top again, on top of 3DS.
Batman on PS3 on top and Dark Souls PS3 having great legs.
Great numbers.

wheres the usual YOY %

actually 360 is at 125 million sellers - Crysis 2, Mercs 2 and Tekken 6 are all very close but just under 1million right now (they are rounded up in the "software totals" overview as they are at 995k+) - same for Petz: Catz 2 on DS, so DS is at 123

Nice little boost for all the consoles. Looks like Wii and 3DS should be set for a strong holiday this year, as does the PS3!

I'm sure the 360 will be up there somewhere too

How is the year 'lost' for the Wii? It's ahead of the 360 and less than 1mil behind the PS3 (and will likely end up around 1mil behind the PS3 for Zelda release), and the holidays for the PS3 have traditionally been best for the Wii and worst for the PS3. We can't rule out the possibility, albeit slim, that the Wii can sell 150-250k more than the PS3 on the Black Friday week WW, and weeks which follow, with new bundles, game releases, budget prices, strong SW etc., leaving them roughly level. 

Note how I said 'slim'. You're likely right, but in my short time at this site I have learnt never to underestimate the Wii during the holidays...

Also, looking at the same period last year, the Wii was (eerily) exactly the same behind the PS3 and the 360 as it is this year. Proceed to mid-November (the week before Black Friday) and the Wii was 120k ahead of the 360 which was 100k ahead of the PS3. The same occured for Black Friday week (despite GT5 launching) and the next few weeks, the Wii widened its gap over the competition, to around 350k over the 360 and 400k over the 360 the week after, which then went to 450k and 500k, and then 350k and 530k, and finally 430k and 550k for the week up to Christmas. The final wek of the year was then much slimmer, with the PS3 only 60k behind the Wii, and the 360 100k. 

A quick bit of Maths shows the Wii was well over 2mil ahead of the PS3 in the weeks we have left, so why can't the same happen this year, as it has a lower price, better SW and more advertising going for it, Remember, the 360 had Kinect as well, and it was still around 2mil behind the Wii in the same time. Even half the advantage will put the Wii in first.

Just a thought.

(3DS will beat them all anyway )

I thought wii had a 50 buck pricecut this time last year? Look at the wii games that were released last year and tell me how it could sell that much mre than the ps3 this time around.
