roadkillers, ps3 sold 120k in Na not 140k. Louie confirmed this.

I don't see how Louie could have confirmed whole week sales of PS3 in NA 2 days before the week was over...

360 and wii might get a slight increase due to more people being in the shops thanks to mgs4.

That doesnt make any sense...if more people are in shops for mgs4...then why would they buy a wii or 360?!...lmfao


 I didn't give number but when I said slight I ment at most 10k. More people in the store = more sales and even if the hardware doesn't increase software sales will. We'll see how it pans out.

Wii.

Well - during Wii Fit launch in America, Wii sold 324K there.

At GTA IV launch, it sold 412K.

I suspect that it will be lower than both those, as we have seen a sort of "uptrapping" lately.

Weekly Wii sells more and more in the big weeks, and then had a boom, before tripping down again.

Normally the up week is twice of the down week, so I'll say about 230K.

Others: The boosts here are minimal from supply. Normal is around 150K here, so that seems fair, as I see little reason for increase there.

Japan: Wii is in a decreasing period, just as Ps3/360, and shouldn't have a big boost, so 40K.

Worldwide: 420K.

That's good. Now let's check your Ps3 predicts. (some of which are IRRATIC!)

Ps3:

America:

Ps3 peaked at 99K in GTA  launch. Now there's already 70K bundles, and an estimated 30K boost on normal sales, so 150K.

1st sentence is incorrect. Ps3 sold 145k during gta4. About near correct.

Others:

Sold over 200K with GTA. Has  had huge stocks, and sold out. It's bigger than GTA IV, so I'll say 250K

Now, this is what I meant by irratic. Mgs4 may beat gta4 when it comes to game quality, but when it comes to game sales, GTA4 RAPED! How can it sell that much? I doubt that a lot. For me, 140k-155k is possible, but 250k is downright unreachable for it. (It's also not bigger than gta4. mgs series is nowhere near the grand theft auto series in popularity.)

Japan:

Japanese love bundles. MGS is selling huge over there (at least for a Ps3 game). I expect it to have a major boost, to 50K.

sounds about right.

Worldwide:

450K.

X360:

Slight drop from usual is likely. Normal is 60K Others and 50K America, so 90K.

A lot of people are really underestimating the Wii this week. I mean, they aren't seeing. The Wii had 2 below average weeks, combine that with Wiifit and HUGE demand, the Wii probably sold 500k this week imo. (just a gut feeling Nintendo busted out some HUGE shipments this week.)

Marty, your Ps3 predictions fail so hard. Is that a joke post?

 Yeah, that wasn´t any final data so far but when the article went online we had the PS3 selling 2.8 times as much in America than last week, so 42 x 2.8 = 117k units. Nothing official, though. We´ll have another story for first week sales when final data is in.



ps3 450k
wii 390k
360 140k
