I expect more, not a fan of the this new set up at all, I hate the USA and especially the UK for sales figures set up, from what I read there was going to be several more charts? Also it appears to be the case now where software just has shrunk by a few 100k or raised by a few 100k...suspisciously the decreases are on PS3 titles and the increases so far noted are on 360 titles, whilst the only charts available bar Japan so 2 out of the four or 5 countries in the world where Micro$oft's attempt at a "console" beat the PS3.

IMO, bring back Americas (sod the USA chart on it's own), EMEAA and try and have a wider Asia sales chart.

How about no.

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

whats wrong with people its still the same numbers but in more specific charts and it looks like you will get 5/6 more for charts other large individual markets

they are giving us information where they can track more accurately so its good to see

Looks good, although I dont think the catchall for countries not tracked individually as Europe should be called "other".



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

So, WW total from now on with a group of regional breakdowns? Seems better although I'll wait for final version to be sure. What's position for 360 for number 1 WW based on this? Seems to me it's not making up enough ground vs PS3 lead at this point and although I expect a big BF spike it's hard to imagine at this point it can be big enough to eat into PS3 lead enough.

I saw Nintendo claiming 500K plus Wii for BF so I guess the Wii is looking at one last decent holiday season at least, which I would imagine will take it beyond 360/PS3 in pretty much all regions. I think 360 can close gap on Wii in US but I find it hard to imagine it surpassing it currently.

SW wise AC had a good start. I didn't buy it personally as I'm fed up with Ubi clearly milking the series and simply extending a character who was clearly supposed to only feature for one game, plus they're pissing me off as a PC gamer too, but plenty of people clearly bought into the whole "final part" spiel from Ubi even though it's clearly false as they've already said AC3 will tie up the core trilogy.

Too much trouble at present to flip through separate charts to see the WW total so I'll wait until the rest of the tables are up before trying to consider SW further - I do expect a single WW SW chart though otherwise it'll be a pain having to flip through individual regions adding them up to get a total aggregation - Seece, Kow, will we be getting such a table do you know?

I'm pretty sure we will.


Thanks.  Interested to see the full breakout once posted.  Should make for interesting detail.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

why?  what would you have done?


My understanding is that Europe will be countries other than the individual tracked countries. This would mean that it will include Australia/New Zealand, Latin America, untracked Europe, untracked Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.  Basically the 21%. Other would be better title than Europe. If I am mistaken then my bad.

I like the split...

Question... the software sales are no up on the game sales page yet?

GT5 is with the same number than last week (6,698,171).



EncodedNybble on 28 November 2011

So.....can we make this thread get back to talking about the week's numbers instead of how they're being presented? Please?

I know we can't see a WW Software yet (at least I can't find) but we CAN talk about WW HW numbers and the few SW breakdown charts they've given us.

Please?
