Microsoft must release a portable, would make our lives so much easier on NPD days...

Anyway, unless Wii + PS3 is really below predicted numbers, 360 is undertracked

25million skylander figures sold in usa alone yet vgchartz numbers show skylanders at only 1.7mil in NA. I want to say super undertracked considering how ridiculous it would be for each owner of the game to buy an additional 15 figures, but thats just a guess.

203k huh? 49%

That leaves 210k for the rest, right? Well, in line with all predictions, boring



Sales are really bad. And bad sales are boring sales.

Ask me about being an elitist jerk

Time for hype

203k for 360
211k for PS3 + Wii



Since Sony is null here, now Nintendo and leaks from neogaf remains.

Vita's lifetime in US: not yet 700k
