Forums - Sales - Global UP! 29th December (HARDWARE ADJUSTED)

Based on USA and UK sales, skyrim passed 7mil this week on the 360.

Only 60% drop for year 2, will be around 59% after this week is added. That's crazy for a hd game that sells 5mil+ its first year. Looking at Halo, GTA, CoD, Gears, Battlefield 3, and Gran Turismo, everything else with a 5mil+ year one is 66%+ drop.

8mil is in the bags. Though the nextbox launch will prevent this game from reaching 9mil. The ps3 and PC versions had great legs as well, though more typical for smaller games. The ps3 version dropped less than 50%. Now if only bethesda hadn't completely fucked up the game and dlc. Would have probably had a decent chance to be a 6mil+ seller on the ps3.

Very poor hold for the 360. After two years of ties, the ps3 got a big year in catching up again.

Vita too high.  Why would the least popular console have the best retention of holiday sales?

140k is too high O.O

The drop is over 30%.

PS3 just killed all the cumulative gap won by 360 in last three weeks.

EPIC!!!

But expected... every year in the latest weeks PS3 sell more than 360.

and the first ~10 months :D



Very nice PS3 numbers.

Wii U numbers in Europe are terrible. Really.



Vita is actually higher than I was expecting

Everything according to expectations. Vita bad as usual, but Wii U numbers are worrying.

2013 is really promising to be an interesting year with all the next gen talk.

these numbers look pretty odd to me all over tbh.

It's like every other year... so why did you think odd?

Looks like word of mouth is finally kicking in. All it takes is 1 holiday.

Who else thinks we are overtracking everything?

I feel we may be too - how long do you expect we'll have to wait for the start-of-year adjustments?

3DS/PS3 - Great
360 - Good
Wii U - meh (Europe is hurting it more than I expected)
Vita - bad as always (although I expected worst)
