Updated OP, all in one easy to read chart!

When the new site launchs I'll look at trying to get the sales threads a lot more detailed with info and better presentation, so might only be sales staff doing them. Need ioi's permission first though

 

Good. Individual threads for different regions would be an idea...

That was fine for 3 regions and a WW thread, but we've split up into far too many countries now, and even more early next year, it'd just be a big mess. It's good to keep weekly sales all in one thread with the title/op updated. IMO anyway.


I actually think a thread for each region would make sense. Also, pssssst, we are going to be bringing back comments on chart pages shortly so most of the discussions can happen on there...

You're the boss! I can always have more data added to the OP if they forget, I think opening the thread and having all the yoy stats ect would be a good thing.

Looking forward to commenting on charts, talk about blast from the past

2006 will be the year of the PS3...oh wait...
2007 will be the year of the PS3...no...wait...
2008 will be the year of the PS3...hrmmmm...wait...
2009 will be the year of the PS3...dammit...one more time...
2010 will be the year of the PS3...@#$%&^% KINECT...@#$%@...
2011 will be the year of the PS3...Are you kidding me...wait for it...
2012 will be the year of the PS3...to be continued..."SON OF A @#$%&!"...

Did you know the PS3 outsold the Xbox 360 worldwide in 2009 and 2010? Shocking isn't it? Its ahead of 360 this year too. It will be close though.

 

I'm guessing you're one of those people that think America = The World.


I couldn't agree with you more.


I think he means "Dominate" the year... not "JUST" beat the competition..



Yay!!!

in my opinion ps?-users were used to play with the market-"dominator" which sony definitely was when psx and ps2 were at market. this has changed in this generation and somehow this seems to disturb people. i don't know why, btw. i'm glad that sony has a competitor in ms. and yes, one has to admit that the x360 *is* a success. in hardware- and software-sales. people argumenting with americanism or talking about japanese being xenophobs... *pff*.
but nice numbers for x360 and 3ds again. ps3 (or better playstation) seems to be a big name in europe (uk not counting ;)) - especially in germany, playstation is *that* name for gaming on consoles.

PS3 sold 49k more units than last week in Europe.
360 sold 47k more units than last week in Europe.

What happen to 360 increase to be on pair with PS3 in Europe???

In previous weeks and last year that not happened.

Its amazing that you dont think that 49K and 47K is on par. 

if this was an english flame because of "pair/par", isn't ethomaz from brazil? i hope you speak as good portuguese as he speaks english so you have a reason to do it. otherwise, learn more than one language as good as him...

@ethomaz here in germany  i only saw playstation and nintendo advertisement over the last years. in sport, racing, tv-breaks and everywhere playstation advertisement. just a few xbox ads over the years. this year is the first year i see huge xbox 360 and kinect advertisement. this could be a reason if this is the case in rest of europe as well. if we would have had the same advertisement for 360 as we had for playstation over the last decade i  think xbox would sell the same amount.

You should watch more Stefan Raab events (Schlag den Raab being the huge exception, because they didn't even develop a game for the 360, but for every other console...)
But yeah this year 360 advertisement and especially Kinect is more frequent than ever.

 

@ Seece

I think you made a mistake, Wii is 340k in Europe, 476k in the US and will get ~60k sales in Japan. That's already ~876k. You counted Japan twice, that's why I said it probably won't reach a million.

It will reach 1 mill, it did 120k last week WW - Japan, USA and Europe. So if it does it again (should rise) it'll do just over 1 mill!



 

The return of the comments section on the charts is warmly welcomed.

okay I thought Canada, Mexico and South America would fall under the third category, but then I read "Americas" on the weekly hardware chart and not just USA.

I'm still not accustomed to some of the changes :/



Yey, commenting on the charts is coming back!

Can't wait until this update is finished.
