sorry guys the first guy to reply told me to delete as could get the staff member fired, dont know if he was joking or not but felt if he wasnt then it was the right thing to do.
Just thought it was interesting to see the psp still now outselling vita 6-1 and the fact that ps4 has a huge pre order lead over xone, dont know if can go into anymore detail sorry.

Well, now let me tell you my point of view, I worked at a videogames retail called GamePlanet in my country, Mexico, one of the biggest markets in the world for videogames and the fastest growing one.

The PSP is not selling too much anymore, I sold more Vita's while I was there than PSP's, the PSP games are selling better though, most of the VITA users are interested in buying Cross-Buy games instead of PS VITA exclusives. 3DS is the best selling handheld console at the moment, but both, the PSP and the VITA sell better than the DS.

The PS3 exclusives sell a lot, the best selling one is God of War followed by Uncharted, Killzone and inFAMOUS are not that popular unfortunely. Comparing it to other consoles' exclusives, let me tell you that the only Microsoft exclusive that is selling well (comparable to God of War) is Halo, while Nintendo sells basically nothing lately.

And the PS4 is getting like eh, I don't know, 7 pre-orders per xbox one? and no one even bothers on consider a Wii U.

The most pre-ordered games are Assassin's Creed Black Flag, FIFA 14, Battlefield 4 and GTA V, most pre-orders are for 360, followed by PS3 and PS4, no one ever pre-ordered a game for xbone while I was there.

The best selling titles of this year so far are FIFA 13 and Call of Duty Black Ops II, FIFA sells better for Playstation while CoD for 360. Luigi's Mansion started very well.

And... the best selling home console at the moment is the PS3, followed by the Xbox 360, but let me tell you that most people don't buy a console for its exclusives, they usually get third party games.

from what was said in my country xbox won hands down on exlcusives this gen apart from uncharted and the last of us that were both hugh. interesting about the 3ds as nintendo is really struggle in NZ it seems, marketing in each country seems to be a bigger factor than i thought.

You should really reread your posts before posting :p

and oh that too bad for KZ: M :( I have it on preorder.

And how about xbox exclusives? Do they sell well?

And why buy a console if you don't buy any games? just for playing BR or what?

 

edit: why you deleted your thread? I thought it was interesting.


hi there thanks for the response i just thought people would love this sort of info, but for the future was what i wrote inappropriate or could get someone fired? just wrote in detail because i wanted people to know the facts and know it was real.
