Forums - Sales - America up

America lower for every console. Although with the Wii this must be a supply problem because it is nearly always higher than in Others.... and the DS is clearly hard to find, even though it proabably wouldn't be over Others figures if it were.

The 360 seems normal in America, but higher than the norm in Others.

 

Ah lol.  TWRoO beat me to the classic "supply problems" excuse!  Shucks.

The supply problem is believable from a retailer standpoint. I work for a very large retailer and we were seeing a good 100+ Wii's a week in December. Now that January has hit we are lucky to see 10 a week, and the few we get are all gone.

DS on the other hand I don't think so. We've had them in stock quite often and only sold out of them once this month only to be resupplied rather quickly.

The Wii seems to always be supply constrained. However I'm sure Nintendo doesn't want to over produce in the non-holiday seasons either.



It's just that simple.

Are sales kinda low or am just used to holiday sales?



Woah just noticed an error on the fron page for xbox 360 numbers.

                     .90
                 16.03
               +10.90
              ----------
                 27.83

also it seems X360 was adjusted down again could've sworn it would be at 11M in others after this week's numbers.



I noticed that to.

Regardless It's not too long before the 360 takes the 8 million plus lead back over the PS3. Granted it may be stunted/reversed pending the Killzone 2 launch and price drop of the PS3 in April if it happens.



It's just that simple.

Everyone in here is saying the same thing... wii and ds are supply constrained!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111one12

maybe its just slow because the holidays just ended..

 

maybe you go look and see if you can find any, then come back, and whether or not it is supply...

The Wii has been sold out for 26 straight months, and people still have to be told the fad has not ended... shesh.



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

but last year look at the pricing for 360, 360 has more units drop off than ps3.
