Has anyone figured out what that statement about TLoU could mean for its numbers?


Between 700k and 1.1 Million units.

Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D sold more than 108,000 combined units in its second month and Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon added nearly 115,000 combined units in its fourth month on the market, bringing its lifetime total to more than 750,000 combined units.

So either: 1) These figures are incorrect, 2) Luigi's Mansion sold several thousand (10k+) more copies digitally than DKCR, or 3) The Wii version of DKCR is still moving an appreciable amount of units each month.



So pretty much everything was overtracked. Alright.

It is historical HUGE

Except they said DKCR "3D" specifically. When they say combined, they mean retail and digital combined. Could be slightly undertracked at retail + have sold well digitally.

DKCR (Wii and 3DS retail, combined) outsold Luigi's Mansion (retail). The figures quoted by Sh1nn say that DKCR 3D (retail and digital) sold less than Luigi's Mansion (retail and digital). Ergo, the three possibilities I outlined. Rol's probably picked the right one.

nvm



Wow the 360 is seriously becoming dead 0_o

It's probably barely scraping 70k a week WW.



Everything overtracked, and I thought that 360 push from the new version was little odd considering no price change. Expecting worse then thought of Wii U and vita numbers as well (considering 5 weeks as well).

I think it's setting itself up for a price cut later on in the year, MS must be making some serious money on them now at that price.

I think a lot of people are expecting price cuts before the holidays but who knows they might be crazy. Kowen still believes in the 30% down YoY, but I am more inclined to believe a price cut will help the numbers not be so down. I mean with a Price cut 360s could go for 100$ during the holidays and still sell pretty good.
