Forums - Sales Discussion - VGChartz week ending 30 May 2015!!! and more...

USA week for 30 May is up, but something is skew-wiff with a few numbers, like Farming Simulator is in its 2nd week but week 2 sales = LTD sales, which of course can;t be right.

looks like Global 30 May might be up within the next 24 hrs or so and then we will be into completely uncharted territory with June; though still a month in arrears. Think about that! A massive flurry of charts being posted over the last week, but still a month behind.

Also only 26 difference between PS4 and Xb One.

Fix.



I don't think Wii U will be above Xb one for Splatoon's 2nd week. Japan will be the only territory where Wii U hardware went up week on week, everywhere else it will go down, and even if Xb one goes down too it won't drop by more than the Wii U drop.

Even though The Witcher is a well established franchise, the fact that it's never been on PS and that The Witcher 2 sold less than 1 million on X360 means that Thw Witcher 3 sales must be regarded as an unexpected major hit. >2 million in 2 weeks on console alone, and no doubt many hundreds of thousands more on PC and console downloads probably means it's over 3 million in its 2nd week. Fantastic result for CDPR, they must be overjoyed with the sales.

Damnit! If I'd waited a day before posting I would not have embarassed myself. I'm a bit sceptical of a 31% increase in Wii U for USA after a 102% increase for Splatoon launch week. But thems the official numbers for now so that's what we work with. Also a very small software drop. But this is probably to be expected, being a new IP and getting strong word of mouth. What else is incredible is that week 3 of Splatoon in the USA has higher Wii U hardware than week 1. That didn't even happen in Japan. But the legs in the USA are incredible. 4:1 game sales to hardware sales in week 3. That's very impressive.
