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.

the only difference is America mind is based on what is seen as the better product. JP can love loving Nintendo and love hate hating Sony until they love loving or hating either or

Yeah, I've never understood the whole concept of bashing another team, or whatever it might be. I just don't get it.

And I never read the comments on IGN for a reason ^^ What's wrong with people??? Why all the hate?

DanneSandin i thought we agreed on this, your only allowed to like one console and you must hate every other console ever made!

Oh, yeah damn! Well, right now I'm loving my PC and Darksiders so,,, erhm... fuck all consoles!....???

no your not allowed to like PC, you must love a console or your a ghrapics whoring non hardcore gamer.

This is going to be a horrble year for the global industry if the Wii U and 3DS don't pick up soon.

Week 3 2013: 535,000 systems

Week 3 2012: 847,000 systems

Drop: -37%

Week 1-3 2013: 2,672,000 systems

Week 1-3 2012: 3,666,000 systems

Drop: -27%

PS3 + X360 in Week 1-3 2013: 909,000 systems

PS3 + X360 in Week 1-3 2012: 1,483,000 systems

Drop: -39%

PS3 + X360 in 2012: 21,083,000

PS3 + X360 Current Pace for 2013: 12,860,000 (-39%)

That comes out to like 7m PS3s and 5.9m X360s

The whole year is probably going to be like this:

3DS - 15m globally (5.8m Japan, 7m US & EU, 2.2m elsewhere)

Wii U - 7m* (3m US, 2m EU, 1.3m JP, 0.7m elsewhere)

PS3 - 7m (2.3m US, 3m EU, 0.8m JP, 0.9m elsewhere)

X360 - 5.9m (3m US, 1.8m EU, 1.1m elsewhere)

Vita - 4.0m (1.3m US, 1.3m EU, 900k JP, 0.5m elsewhere)

Wii - 2.0m (0.8m US, 0.4m EU, 0.3m JP, 0.5m elsewhere)

PS4 - 2.0m (0.7m US, 0.8m EU, 0.4m JP, 0.1m elsewhere)

Xbox 720 - 2.0m (1m US, 1m EU)

PSP - 1.3m (0.1m US, 0.4m EU, 0.3m JP, 0.5m elsewhere)

* Assumes price cut in April

I'm being fairly optimistic with a lot of these, but it still comes out to everything being 10% from 2012 (52m to 46m)

You're being too optimistic about Wii U sales. By the looks of it, it's going to be difficult for it to match PS360 sales.

People gotta realise that the wiiU and psvita are not failing consoles/handheld, we are just going back to a gen6/7 type numbers. Which means, we should obviously expect much lower numbers weekly for all consoles in general. The casuals are gone to the smartphone and tablet market, and so what? Consoles lived way before these casuals weren't there and they will keep living again without them. The companies just gotta adjust themselves now.

This is a problem, as the budgets for producing games have heavily increased. This is only sustainable at increasing sales. To avoid a crash the budgets must go down again.

wow wiiu is selling like vita if you combine Europe and usa, there is only a 2000 unit differnce, somebody call an ambulance, and save the wiiu, they need to release wii sports now before it get worst.

Well, then we better combine USA and Japan. LOL. Cherrypicking data is fun.

World peace

i predict ps4720 to be snapped up at retail "IF" and only "IF" they are reasonably priced including an affordable entry console, if not then imo they will struggle

as an example if the ps4 is £399 thats the price i originally paid for my original phat ps3 i simply wont buy one untill much later on, it has to be £229 - £299

ps. this WiiU browser is extremly good, id give the WiiU a shot if you havent already

I would agree if you could get the quotes to work correctly . Ask KHlover

ah i c, ive just logged onto pc and it apears it doesnt copy in the quote boxes which is strange

...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

Even with Japan, still is closer to Vita than to PS360.
