I wonder if it had anything to do with the Tour De France. It's been pretty big over here again this past week, pulling in viewing figures over a million each day. There's about 8 hours of it on a day, and each ad break has 2 Wii U ads. It could explain a slight bump, because I can't recall seeing any offers.

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Also, I don't see a way TLoU can make it to next week with Pikmin 3 coming out this week. Though it's been a pretty impressive run.

If we use VGC numbers...

July 6th: 23,994
July 13th: 13,677 (-43%)
July 20th: 10,668 (-22%)

I'm sure with 10k Pikmin 3 destrone TLoU.

Exactly. It's been riding high on Amazon for a while now, as has the Wii U (best placed console aside from PS4), though I don't take anything from those figures.

But all we need to think is that Lego City opened up to around 10k, and surely Pikmin will open higher. It's been a good, and well deserved, run though. A great game.

No1 with 10k sales..? Jesus, software sales are worse than I thought at the moment.

If we use VGC data but I can say that in June PS3 was high undertracked in UK... so TLoU can be under too... in US at least they updated the number for TLoU this week.

It's summer holiday period, I thought numbers like these would be expected.

So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Like is said I cant believe how low sales are at the moment, thats a cuple fo hundfed sales right there.

6 weeks is a fine achievement. But those 6 weeks = 300k in sales. The COD six weeks is 2.7m in sales.

You simply cant just ignore that.

Nobody expected TLoU to track like CoD or FIFA in UK... 300k in six weeks is better than 99% of the games releases and an accomplishment for a new IP in a single plataform.

Agree.

I have lost count on what number Call of Duty they are on now... I would guess like 8th or 9th. TLOU is a new IP, and is doing incredibly well as such.
