GFK says that PSP in 2012 in Europe sold 1.7 milions and DS 619.000.

VGChartz --> PSP 958.000 and DS over 1 milions...

And now, again, in VGC DS sell 5x PSP in Europe...

 

Why don't adjusted? =/

Wow. That's a huge difference in estimates. Makes sense that PSP sold 1.7m since Sony did release a budget model last year in Europe.

I wonder if and when VgChartz will adjust..

wii u is up probably cos most people get paid at the end of the month/start and it's expensive. Just my theory. Also some places such as granger games in the uk are selling it below £200 now.



if you believe VGChartz then it's death to the psp console sales outside Japan anyway.

It is quite strange. Adjustments usually take place before now.

Seriously, £200? That's ridiculous!

GAMING IS DEEAAAAAD!

Also Nice Ni No Kuni numbers. Chances are they're over-tracked like P4G was, which is a shame. Still waiting on my White Wizard edition to come in.



Here's the comparison to the same week last year:

PS3 down 100k (around 50%) YoY

360 down 120k (around 66%) YoY

Wii down 80k (around 83%) YoY

DS down 31k (around 58%) YoY

PSP down 50k (around 60%) YoY

PSV down 11k (around 65%) YoY (it was only out in Japan)

 

3DS down 19k (around 10%) YoY

 

Really? PS3 and 360 are going to be near-to-flat when they're currently 50% and 66% down on their previous numbers YoY? I don't see it. New consoles should have come last year; this isn't going to get any better.

-Looks like the Nintendo Direct provided a VERY SMALL boost to Wii U sales.
-PS3 still above 100k! I don't see it dropping next week. Some good releases this week with Sly 4 and Dead Space 3.
-360 holding on to respectable levels. Price cut is long overdue.
-Vita....no comment.
-3DS sales are bad outside of Japan. It being #1 WW gives the illusion that its selling well but it really isn't...

There was a time that 75K on any given week was a terrible result. But that was back in the day when only PS3 was selling under 100K per week. Relativity huh? When 75K is double the lowest selling non-obsolete console all of a sudden 75K looks respectable.

It's going to be sad numbers from here on. I don't see Sony or MS dropping the price of their consoles (well Vita maybe) until after their new consoles come out. Especially Sony, given they've still failed to turn a profit. If they do actually make a FY profit they might do something with PS3 pricing, but it's doubtful before PS4.
