Forums - Sales - Actiovision numbers: Wii and MMO ..

Are the main cashers for Activision now:

 

Total revenue breakdown

- MMOG (massively multiplayer online games) = 42%
- consoles = 42%
- handhelds = 12%
- PC = 4%

Consoles
Nintendo Wii = 13.00%
Microsoft Xbox 360 = 11.00%
Sony PlayStation 2 = 9.00%
Sony PlayStation 3 = 9.00%

You guessed right, it was the Wii. However, PS3 kept pace with PS2, while the Xbox 360 got within 2% of the Nintendo revenues.

In terms of the handhelds:
Nintendo Dual Screen = 10.00%
Sony PlayStation Portable = 2.00%

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

It prints Money!

WoW revenue = all console revenue.

I actually would have thought WoW revenue would have been a larger percentage.

 Seems like it would be a pretty short list. They have Guitar Hero and, uh...

And of that Guitar Hero is probably 90% of sales.   Hopefully CoD5 will be worth a purchase so they have 2 main titles on Wii.

 



 

I'm quite surprised..it's not like they are supplying great support for the Wii. I guess it must all be from Guitar hero.

2 games I would buy from them

Guitar Hero - Nintendo Rocks (with classic Nintendo themes rocked up)
Spider-man : Webslinger ( FPS or on-rails lightgun game with first person pointer based web-shooting/web yanking etc)

Make them and I'll buy em.
