Forums - Sales - After GTA, PS3 and 360 unchanged. Nintendo has this in the bag.

During the month halo 3 was released the 360 outsold the wii. Not by much but to say halo3 didn't move a massive amounts of hardware at the time is a simple fallacy. Not bad for 1 game on a console that it had been clear was going to lose to the wii for the vast majority of the year.

GTA has boosted both the 360 and the ps3, but since its multi-platform is spread between the two. Sales are still up a lot, especially software sales. Look at how many games go a huge boost in sales during the week GTA launched.

Just because the wii is beating the competition pretty easily doesn't discount the increased sales caused by big games on the other platforms. An increase is an increase even though it hasn't put them ahead.

It's certainly not unchanged, but I too wish sony fanboys would move on, and stop denying that the PS3 still has a good chance of winning this console cycle. I don't think it does. I think it has a better chance of winning in Japan than winning worldwide if that is any indication of the chance I give the PS3 of beating the Wii.

 I think the opposite. I think Sony has more chances of winning NA than Japan. Japan has always be a single console country.


FF13,GT5,MGS4,FFV13,WKC,NUNS,DBZBL,TOV(timed 360 exclusive),ES,LR,say otherwise.Japanese multiplatform games will also benefit more PS3 sales in Japan than 360 sales so PS3 is not entirely dead yet in Japan and definitely has a chance of surpassing the wii.

The Sony PLAYSTATION®3 will win because their TEN YEAR PLAN has been calculated by the all knowing all powerful CELL BROADBAND ENGINE and presented to Kaz in stunning 1080P HIGH DEFINITION graphics. This is all part of their strategy!



Yes

Yes it is unchanged. PS3 have sold 350k. Definitely didn't change.

Another flaming thread.... Someone lock this please



Crazzy, this is a better graph even if the GC sales are missing it shows nicely how SMG is selling as well as NSMB world wide.

So as a matter of interest, why were you trying to show that Japan isn't as interested in Mario as before, besides Mario != Wii

(normally I wouldn't reply but Crazzy's graph is wonderful, it reminds me of SDF )

Viper - Crazzy has been around for a while, he just doesn't post as much as Leo-j and makes even less sense.

Do you mean unchanged to mean that the ps3 and 360 did not outsell the wii?
A lot is going to change in the next few weeks, but the Wii will always be ahead.

You aren't wrong!
