Forums - Sales - Famitsu Sales: 01/05 - 01/11 Dissidia Tops Again!

Wii fit extends its userbase lead over the PS3 by 3k.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Around the Network

Last Year
DS- 101,122
PSP- 91,881
Wii- 83,681
PS3- 37,183
PS2- 15,044
360- 5,248
356- 100

So, Wii is down about 50% yoy, last year we were within a few weeks of brawl, so that is part of it, the other part is WiiFit fever was still running high last year there.

PSP- Down, and it will be all year, last WAS its peak year. It is down even coming off a big release like FF:D

DS- Maintaining, nice, DSi seems to held off further sales erosion.

PS3- Down about 10k, despite coming of a release of a major title and several bigger titles in the near future

Basically, I think the reason people are happy about the PS3 sales is not the actual number, but the proximity to the Wii HW. I am not worried about the Wii at all in Japan, it has DQX and MH3, which both imo are now bigger than FF in Japan (Square is focusing FF more on the west than in the past)

well mostly because the preview showed it at abot 13k. Also do you remeber how low it was before Christmas?

ok, I did not realize that you actually take the Preview's HW seriously. The softs on the preview are usually pretty close with the exception of casual titles. HW? Really.

I remeber when he used to do the weekly releases in Japan with the shipment numbers for each......

We should already have them, but I can't look being that I can't read Japanese.
