Wow. WTF, DS?



Same week last year (ending 05th Jan 2008):

DS: 184k
Wii: 160k
360: 112k
PS3: 75k
PSP: 80k

Difference to this year:

DS: -57%
Wii: +69%
360: +23%
PS3: +9%
PSP: +4%

DS obviously supply constrained.



My Mario Kart Wii friend code: 2707-1866-0957

wow is there a ds shortage or something because thats incredibly low



  3DS FC: 4355-9313-6815

Strange week, DS especially. Here I was thinking the Wii would crack 46 million...
How much can Japan bring in?

To lavish praise upon this title, the assumption of a common plateau between player and game must be made.  I won't open my unworthy mouth.

Holy.....WTH?! I know the sales were going to go down, but I thought it would have been gradual...the DS went from around 800k to just 80k....that is mind-bottling!

 

Edit: I guess the DS was under-shipped....that is just too crazy to be any other case



Explanation of sig:

I am a Pakistani.....my name is Dan....how hard is that? (Don't ask about the 101...apparantely there are more of me out there....)

DSi anticipation?

After Holiday slowdown?

Market dried up?

Shipment constrainde?

whatever it is DS sales are damn low.

Seriously, 79k? That's mind-boggling. Why?

The same thing happened for most of Janurary 2008, the DS is sold out at most stores.  I remember really wanting a DS last year and it was sold out at like 100 places in town so I had to settle for the Costco bundle.  Expect it to take Nintendo weeks to build up stock again, just like with the DS and Wii last year.

Xbox 360 isn't dominating the PS3 enough, there is hope for Sony.

 

You sure are optimstic, maybe you are behind low ds numbers just to make ps3 look better.
