Forums - Sales - American Numbers up

SaviorX on 28 August 2008

The Wii went up to 95k, not bad. I hope it doesn't throw off the prediction I had set for 8/30.



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Hmmm. 360 numbers are low because of incoming price-drop next week.



End of '08 predictions (made by theprof00): PS3: 20m, 360: 23.5m, wii: 42m

Now Playin':  PS3|Resistance 2, LBP, Uncharted and Fifa 09, PSP| Ratchet and Clank: Size matters, 360| Gears of war 2 and Fallout 3.

Good sales for the PS3.Great sales for the Wii,but it seems to have entered a slower phase ...the three later NPD reports have showed diminishing sales ,slowly but surely ,and that cant be due to stock as there was more stock the prior month.Still ,very powerful sales.

360 continues its path.I fear that machine cant make the jump for mainstream.It has had two price drops ,one very big one in Europe ,in Japan its dirty cheap and its getting JRPGs...but it just cant step up and make its move to the grand league numbers.Maybe its something about MS brand name ,or maybe the online with fees effectively reduces the potential purchasers ...

Sony ,it has very good numbers in US and EU ...it just need to do something with Japanese sales.A backwards compatible model there would do wonders....although what it would need there is the slimline model the sooner the better.

Fear? Lol, it sounds like you're positively gloating.

Anyway why are you adding together price cuts for different regions? It sounds like you're happy that Sony screws over the European consumers that are keeping the PS3 alive.

 



Tease.

OK,

As I have stated,

If the 20go is gone, then the Xbox360 just get a PRICE UP meaning the premium model is back to the normal 350$ ... that is explaining the "bad" Xbox360 sales.

 

 20Gb has been gone since beginning of August honestly.

We started to see 60Gb in shops at the end of July here..



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

I have a sneaking suspicion that VGchartz will undertrack the 360 this month by about the same amount it overtracked it last month - in relation to NPD figures I mean...

Call me synical if you like.

 

 Im sure you mean cynical

 

oops. thanks stubbsy.

thats what 3 hours of uncharted on crushing does to you.... im done in!! 

what do you reckon though, am i being cynical or is the site and its figures beyond that kind of skullduggery?

 

 Well, i doubt the 360 is being overtracked this week. Or month. If it is, MS have problems
no it was overtracked last month.... this month it will be (intentionally? - surely not) undertracked.... resulting in harmony

 

 

Considering the 360 has been overtracked every single month when compared to NPD, I wouldn't expect it to be anything but overtracked, but it could change this month.

Edit: Proof http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/post.php?id=1122086

LOL at those Sony fanboys assuming the PS3 is supply constrained. Proof? And i don't mean BS proof from any Sony exec spin stories!!!

 

I was at a Rogers video the other day and they had no PS3 units, is that proof?  But they had 3 wii's and Mario kart.

Yeah great number in the US... it is only 6.5 million behind the 360 and 8 million behind the Wii.  At the current sales rate it will storm past the 360 in the States by.... oh... er... by 2012 or 2013.    

I jest of course.  But at least my statement is a joke unlike some of the sensationalist shite on here tonight.

Is this a trend with 360 owners? They post trollish statements and then try to spin it as a joke, Starcraft does it with his winks, and now we have kowenicki saying he "jests".

You'd be better off to just come right out and say it.

And don't try to say that owning all 3 consoles somehow allows you to say this, Madskillz owns all 3 consoles and we all know how unbiased he is.

So one shop in the U.S. has no ps3s and that means its supply constrained? Perhaps you should look at the bigger picture. Is the ps3 being sold over rrp on ebay then?
