Excellent 3DS, very good PS3, good PSP & Wii numbers, average for the 360, weak Vita numbers, alarming trend for Wii U.

Also 3DS & PS3 accounted for 60 % of the total market for the past 6 months.

Around the Network

Well wii and psp could be strangely high at first glance, but they are really cheap with a good library at a low price



the Wii is allmost selling twice as much as the Wii U



Great find.



My God. I can not believe all the numbers. French market is such small?



Around the Network

And good to see X360 surpassed 3 million in France. Although it is behind PS3, it is still a huge gain for MS & Xbox. Hope X1 can keep this, at least not way lower than 3 million...

France is small... 60 million population.

What make Europe strong is all countries combined... not a single country alone.

Why are you reacting like this ? it is not like if the total market differences between vg and gfk were huge.

France is the second european market if we exclude PC, third behind Germany with PC.

Well good milestone for MS, but I can assure you the French future of xbox one looks far less bright.

Ms will be in trouble this gen to math these numbers, unless the trend dramatically changes.



Great find!
Vita sales are really low...depressing.

PS3 destroying the 360, this year over 200% above, lifetime 150%, hope this digits will only grow bigger in relation to next-gen consoles in favor of the PS4.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!
