Videogame's company tracked their sales too... just not show to public... PD for example update their sales site of all GT games every year (I guess they the only to show sales to public without PR news).


That's what I just said.



BOOM!  FACE KICK!

Uncharted 3 adjusted up about 200,000 in the running total, but the global total remains identical when it should be around 2.4m-ish?

PS3 adjusted up and once Europe and Japan are up the YTD gap should be back to 1.1-1.2m, with two weeks left before xmas, hmmm... Did MS mention anything about being no.1 WW this year in their last NPD PR? I think it's still possible but it has become more unlikely now. Perhaps shipped numbers.

Anyway, if USA numbers were this off who knows how EMEAA numbers will be, the holiday period is crazy. So we won't know for sure until the big 3 release their quarterly numbers I think.

the voice of reason. have you considered changing your name? anyway, what are you expecting for Europe?

I am not expecting anything in particular tbh. It's just that if they can be tens of thousands of units off in their best tracked region, the rest could potentially be very off. Usually the PS3 is the most undertracked one in EMEAA, though that doesn't necessarily mean it'll also be the case this time.

And thanks guys for the replys to my question.

yea expect adjustments(even made some myself lol) (PS3 mainly) aswell. if MS is going to win this yr., then there last shot is Christmas wk., cause right nw it doesn't seem doable.  you've made sense since your first post, so why wouldn't anyone reply to you lol?

keep trainning them, cause there's more work to be done lol.

After this week the PS3 lead will be under 800K. Each week in Americas the difference between the PS3 and the 360 grows and far more than what happens elsewhere. Week of Dec 3rd the 360 gained 91K, week of Dec 10th it looks like it will gain 165K.  Last year during those same weeks the 360 gained 45K and 75K respectively.  The following two weeks last year the 360 gained 163K and 182K.  At the same rate of growth this year the 360 would gain enough to be just about tied at the end of Christmas week.  It will come down to New Years week and the special deals available for the 360 and the PS3 that week.  I fully expect MS to try and go out the year with a huge bang.

The pace of sales acceleration in the Americas is far greater. Between week after Black Friday week and Christmas week last year sales in Americas basically doubled. The rest of the world about 25% growth. This favors the 360 greatly.

Yeap... but I can't see 360 taking advantage of the 800k in two weeks.

Remeber the last week of the year PS3 sold more than 360 in the lastest years.

PS3 will be the #1 consoles this year (THE FIRST TIME IN THIS GENERATION).

You mean overall including above Wii? Because I'm sure 2009/2010 has PS3 ahead of 360.

Yeap... between PS3, 360 and Wii.

I'm really disappointed with Zelda.. it seems a bit under tracked from NPD (although Nintendo did provide their numbers as well). To not get past a million in 3 weeks, that's horrible imo :(


3 weeks in the US and Skyward Sword is already nearly at 1 million there. You do realize that Twilight Princess, at this point in time, only sold roughly 580,000?

 

Skyward Sword is selling above par for the series. What are people complaining about? It isn't even showing signs of slowing down yet. Can we just wait until SS -actually- starts selling badly before we say it is? It probably will sell worse than TP in the long run, but we're getting ahead of ourselves here.

It won't have TP's legs though since it's the end of the Wii's life cycle. So yeha :P I'm pissed!

Seems that PS3 price cut wasn't really useful at all.

It is up 20% YoY in US... semms like the price cut done right.

Not right enough against 360 :P



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

So you think that a price cut is useless when it increases the sales 20% YoY unless that console is #1?*facepalm*

Fantastic 3DS sales. Mario Kart and the pricecut really saved the 3DS."

i think as more people own a 3ds as more freinds of them will see how it works and want one as well. mouth to mouth is extremely important for 3ds because advertisement can't show you how the 3d works. i wasn't intersted in the 3ds until i played zelda on a friends 3ds and i know how 3d works because i have a 3d tv but many have no clue and i think the 3ds will be a huge success in the future because of mouth to mouth.
