Forums - Sales - Global HW & SW Up! 19th January

So from the Charts, I have deduced:

Japan loves Nintendo the most and hates Microsoft the most with Sony being middle.
Europe hates Nintendo the most and loves everything Sony and Microsoft being in the middle
Microsoft is king in the America's with Nintendo and Sony around the same.

How come lifetime totals on the front page haven't been adjusted yet, as per this page?
http://www.vgchartz.com/analysis/platform_totals/

360: 74.25 million (big adjustment up)
PS3: 72.49 million (small adjustment up)
Wii: 98.8 million (modest adjustment up)
PSV and Wii U also adjusted up.

Perhaps waiting for the global weekly (HW&SW) chart to come up?

Xbox 360> Wii + Wii U is not a good situation for Nintendo but at least WiiU>Wii is a good thing.

PS3 close to Xbox360 + Wii is impressive for the worst selling console of all time.

Wut? o.O

Are you really telling me a smiley face is needed for that?

Well these are depressing numbers o.o

1st quarter is going to be dead for the most part. 3DS seems like the only contender to have a better quarter than the previous year with Fire Emblem, Monster Hunter 3G, Luigi's Mansion, Dragon Quest 7 (Japan only), and Professor Layton (Jpn only) coming. Wii U will get a small bump with Rayman Legends, Monster Hunter, Lego City and Game & Wario (Japan only). Xbox 360 and PS3 also, when GTA 5 is released.

That's pretty much it.

Its cool that these numbers are bad because according to Kowenicki Sony will double these numbers for no reason during the slowest 2 quarters.

Man, I see some people being downright silly about the 3DS, acting like being down YOY for a single week by under 20k is as good as a death sentence.

It's a long year, guys. 52 weeks, and some of the least important of them are in January. If you obsess over every single one of them, sure, you'll find something to be negative about, but you'll be missing the big picture. 3DS is going to have a spectacular year.

Certainly, some of them. The first week of January is huge. The latter ones... not so much.

Despite the stellar 7th/8th year sales of PS360, I have reason to believe it is Sony's and MS fault that their is this videogame crash. If they would have released new consoles before the Wii U then I think the situation that we are in now would be a lot different with sales consistent with 2006 numbers. Vita and Wii U would certainly have more thought into their release schedules by 3rd parties then the situation right now. I mean their is less releases this year then in recent memory if all the next gen consoles would be out then 3rd parties would be more inclined to port to Wii U and vita then now. Agree or Disagree?
