great numbers for the last of us. those 1.3 million estimates were a bit off but still amazing numbers for a new IP especially.

Two days, which falls under the week ending June 15th.  Two days is normal for European software, but in the US games tend to launch on Tuesday, so it had less time there.

2 days. pretty much all first week sales are actually just the first 2 days because games release on fridays

Actually games come out on Tuesdays (at least in NA). The Last of Us was different and came out on Friday.

ohh ok, thanks for that info

Great PS3 and Last of Us sales.

Well yes, absolutely killer FW for TLOU (really impressed it cracked a million actually) and really nice for Animal Crossing too; plus that hardware boost.  It's been advertised quite a lot here in the UK so I'm not too surprised by it.  NPD adjustments pending, ofc.

But I want to talk about the more weird things happening in this update.  And there seem to be a lot of them.

• Xbox 360.  No hardware boost from the new model at all?  Not even slightly?  I do find that hard to believe; normally there's something.
• PSP software in the UK.  Up 55%?  What on earth has caused that; there's been nothing that I know of that would have had that effect.
• Vita in the USA.  Up 23%.  There's been no new releases that would've made it in this chart that I'm aware of.  Seems really strange, especially since last NPD showed it doing worse than we were tracking it here.

Has the new model been marketed? Havn't seen anything about it in the game stores here.
Perhaps people are not aware that there is a new model of the 360?

That... actually seems to be another error to me.  Here's last week's UK chart; Paper Mario isn't even in the top 40 on the individual charts.  How VGC have it #4 this week I have absolutely no idea, but safe to say that it's incorrect.

A minor correction, but it's 1.27mil, or 1270k. But that is mighty impressive, and most certainly well deserved.
