 250K out of  500K shipments were sold, so it will eventually get there.

Sales tools can't return quick enough.

48 Hours. Less than 100 posts in a WW Up thread. Sales website.

Even a Ninpie can't help that out! Not alone that is.

What is there to say that hasn't already been said. This generation is pretty much set in stone and there hasn't been any high profile games released recently.

Don't really know why Nintendo is so worried about 3DS Sales in Europe. If Europe stays near America's sales then it'll do perfectly fine there.

European numbers are not near America's if we look at how much they shipped there. The demand is not the same.

I was basing that statement off of pure sales, not shipments.

3DS will get adjustments soon on VGChartz (down, that is).

Why would it go down? Nintendo has shown numbers around what VGC has.



pezus said:

Yes, Nintendo shows what they have shipped. And shipped numbers were thus for Q4:

3DS Q4 Hardware:
Japan - 1.19m
Americas - 0.52m
Others - 0.38m

Total 3DS shipments: 17.13m

3DS sales according to VGChartz: 16.93m

200k on shelves is way too little => overtracked by at least 500k

200K overall on shelves? (Globally?) Yeah, overtracked for sure. I could see it being 300K over but not that much over.

yeah i really lost interest in the 360 and ps3 sales after so many years and handheld sales did never interest me. no christmas, no huge game release...nothing.

Well you could comment on our bet in my sig. 

I had always said that it would sell similarly to God of War 3. So, here's a comparison between the two:

 

WeekGod of War 3
Mass Effect 3
1 1,227,099 / 1,227,099 1,380,563 / 1,380,563
2 370,825 / 1,597,924 293,078 / 1,673,641
3 203,910 / 1,801,834 145,264 / 1,818,905
4 152,878 / 1,954,712 101,514 / 1,920,419
5 112,154 / 2,066,866 76,348 / 1,996,767
6 88,270 / 2,155,136 63,918 / 2,060,685

 

Mass Effect 3 is currently tracking only 100k behind God of War 3, which went on to sell 3.5 million in it's first year.

* Note that Mass Effect 3's first week of tracking was ten days before God of War 3's. So it'll have a week more than God of War 3 for it's first year.

It should do 3.2m by the end of the year, unless it has  a pretty lackluster holiday. We'll see. I think it'll be close though.

Considering it is selling 150k-200k each week a 500k stock on shelves would only last for around 3 weeks. They would want at least one month of supply on shelves I think

Nintendo is good with keeping up on restocking things though... I don't think my prediction is that far off.
