All pretty bad. Except 360 and PS2 staying steady!

Just noticed some numbers:

In one or two weeks 3DS will reach 3M YTD.
It's roughly 75% up from last year YTD but only 17% year-over-year (weekly sales).
It holds the 56% of the sales this year.

Last year it sold 4,282,143, at this point needs only 1,361,489 more to reach the same mark with 18 weeks left.
It needs an average of 75,638 per week to do the 4.3M last year.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Awesome Vita numbers.

X360 holding steady, all the 3 sold units of it.

WTF is a DSi ?

The 3DS should pass the PS3 in lifetime sales this year as well. Next year the Wii and the year after the PSP. That is if things go well and no third party conspiracy materializes.

Let's see:

To pass PS3, 3DS needs 1,187,333 units. So it's fair to say it will happen at end of november or in one of the crazy december weeks.

To pass Wii needs 5,330,397 units. At October 2013 at the latest seems probable. Maybe as far as November.

To pass PSP needs 12,064,945 units. At December 2014 at the earliest I would say.

Vita will be saved from catastrophe by Miku.

Barely, just for a single week (at most), then back to 10k land. The effect will be just like it did with Persona 4: The Golden. I think the Vita will reach 20-30k that week. Hopefully TGS will bring a system seller, at least for 2013.


Catastrophe meaning crossing streams with the Dreamcast!

Low numbers, low posts. At least when people trolled vita the thread remained 'hot' for the day.

Would kinda be hard pressed for devs to do something that stupid now with how Vita's faring.

Conspiracy plans cannot be set into motion for another 18 months as  a result.



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Noctis... this thread needs an update, lacking a lot of famitsu info and MC's list names could be better.

"Good opening for most releases today except from an obvious one.

Miku the top seller."

He's talking about Gundam AGE... so who cares
Next week is the week when our differences here in VG Chartz will be settled. Everybody will be happy! :)
