Happy to help, from the figures I have (I'm pretty sure the data is conclusive)

US NPD LTD's

N64: 18.00m
DC: 4.01m
PS1: 30.1m

The rest I can't help with much, could do some research on Europe tho as I know a couple sites.

Hope you can find those charts! I would help you but I have to beat Skeletor and let me tell you... it's quite time consuming.

I never wanted to pay more for Mario to jump higher and get only half of the usual tracks in Mariokart to pay extra for the rest. I do not want to pay real money for items in Zelda and I will never buy any game with day one DLC. Everyone should stay far away from these games and tell Nintendo that this must stop.

Make shit up. That's what Seece does.

I found a monthly breakdown for 1994. Idk how accurate it is but I might as well share.

http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?26110-january-december-1994-NPD-sales-data!

I had to manually type the link out on my Vita so sorry if It doesnt work. Hope it helps.

the most accurate numbers are the companies fiscal results. but we get those once a year, so NDP is 2nd most accurate and it is once a month, VGC gives us weekly numbers but understands its numbers are not final so anything in the database reflects a company's fiscals if it is older than 1 year, NDP 1 month and less than once month it is VGC estimates.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Well, the numbers provided by the console makers themselves are shipment figures, not sales figures. Even then, regional breakdowns are hard to find and yearly figures of any kind are nonexistent for Sega. MS has never given regional shipment number while Sony stopped providing them a few years ago.


shipped = sold once the game is not longer being sold in store. Some of those sales may be in the 5 dollar bargin bin, but they are still sales.
