It would've been more impressive if they told us how many average copies it was selling an hour.
That site is run by a stupid ninty troll. Nothing to see here.

LOL, so many PS fans getting butthurt over their idiocy being revealed. Nintendo fans knew Knack wasn't going to outsell it, not even close. What I didn't know is 3D World would completely destroy it with 1.2 million sales within a months time (released 22 Nov, and tracked to 14 Dec) to .34 million sales of Knack Which has been tracked for an entire month (15 Nov to 14 Dec).

3D World sold roughly 37 copies every minute for 22 days straight.

That's the 8th gen spirit!
The writer seems to have taken issue with the comparisons of 3D World's first week/month to other Mario games as well as Knack outselling it first week in the UK. None of his points really counter these things though.
People were saying the same thing that Mario games have legs, but it was being compared to other Mario games. They all had legs. Week 51 for Galaxy in Japan was almost 40% higher than 3D World. 3D Land was more than double. They had also come out a few weeks earlier in November, so the disparity in lifetime sales is even greater.
As for the UK/Knack, it has outsold 3D World for four out of the five weeks since their launches. Apparently the only answer he has to that is to insult Chart-Track for not releasing numbers, and suggest that the UK market is actually insignificant.
He also brings up eshop sales, but ignores the US (oh but the NPD doesn't release numbers anymore, so the US market must be insignificant.) where we know both retail and digital sales for November. I guess he couldn't think of a way to spin those numbers.
Sad and desperate.

If Ohio State beats Akron ... nothing happens. It's mentioned, briefly, in a matter-of-fact way and everyone shrugs. Sure, you can get mad about that, say it's unfair, but no one really cares. Firing back and saying, "HAHA we actually beat Knack, WE'RE NUMBER ONE," isn't going to get you anything but condescending smiles and a golf clap or two. Worse, the OP seems to be attacking anything and everything, like some fascist dictator who fires all his nuclear missiles at random when it seems like his power is waning. Knack, Lightening Returns, even the UK? Really? Why? Any point the author of this was trying to make was lost in rhetoric and meaningless spin. |
Kudos to you, sir.
Also, I figure I'd ask here, he dismisses the UK market as irellevent (for somewhat arbritary reasons) - but is it not technically the second largest home console market in the world? I had a look at numbers and while it's last gen (Wii + PS3 + 360) user base is effectively a statistical tie with Japan (around 24m), it has thwoarted it for home console software sales - with I think this year coming out 2:1 in favour of the UK. Obviously this is cause handhelds are so big in Japan, but being from the UK it'd make me happy to know we're a fairly big player int he console world :P.

I agree with Dv8th to be honest, but to me both side are incredibly bad, just look at the current sony outselling threads for example. Given I do agree with Pokoko as well. |
It's all a bunch of reaction threads. Some are funny, most are not.
