Forums - Sales - PAL Charts, Week 40: FIFA 09 takes over Europe

It's ridiculous to say that EA won't bother with next Fifa on PS2. The game sold 50k and took 3rd place which is pretty good result even if drop from last year is big.
EA do bother to release Fifa on DS every year even through it's not even able to get into top 40.

In my opinion Fifa 09 (PS2) will get close to 1 milion mark and maybe even break it (worldwide).

Fucking disgusting. The only sensible country in Europe is Finland where NHL kills shitty Fifa in sales every year.

And maybe Sweden.

Fuck boring football.

Also not surprising to see the PS3 version dominate. Sports gamers are Playstation owners. PS3 version will dominate every european country and even come very close in UK.

Next week there will be a huge rise in PS3 hardware sales in Europe, easily beating 360 again.

 

 

hahahahah lol you arnt been "boring football" its the worlds most popular sport!  Just  because your a fan of a girls game doesnt give you the right to dis football.   OK I SAID IT     HOCKEY IS FOR GIRLS!   i hope i dont get killed by all those people in Finland!



Wooh FIFA 09 All Play seems to have done worse than the previous one haha. Haha I didn't expect it to be up with the other versions but man I expected it to at least do better than the PSP version haha and a little better over last year. I guess people just don't buy the Wii version for their soccer glory on the first week. But like last year's it'll hang in there for the year like all versions will. Seems like Wii version will equal about what it did with 08's opener of about 30k.

Anyways the usual titles seem to have held up. Wario Land, Sambo de Amigo and de Blob enter the charts this week meaning they probably actually sold a decent bit better than last week in the UK considering they had more spots to climb this week with FIFA releasing. These titles definitely we'll look out for in the legs department here as they could have Rayman Raving Rabbids type trends in others. Star Wars and BIA seem to be about split around all versions while Tiger Woods shows 360 and Wii doing better than PS3 version. But yea a pretty big software week. It seems that with the entry of FIFA it got more people into stores and ultimately raised the software of other titles such as a few older titles making it back in the top 40. Good week.

And that's even with FIVE more Fifa versions... Soccer is probably the least popular in Finland in all of Europe. Which is why I have so much respect for them. They're smarter than everyone else.

I'm Danish btw.

Main reason for that is probably climate. (short summers, long winters)
