Forums - Sales - World Wide Sales UP!!...PS3 > 360 by 74K , WiiDS Sales EXPLODE!

Wasn't Wii meant to be 60% UP in the UK on last week, yet on this latest chart is says -15% for the UK?



Around the Network

PS3 will sell more then 360 in NA next week, due to Wal-mart deal ending, so the gap this week was 70k, next week, who knows

Man 360 is getting a whoopin in Europe. Next year will be the grand finale for it.


what utter garbabe.... did you say the same last year when the roles were reversed? oh... no... you werent here where you.

don't make fun of a member for being perma-banned

hus is back & he's improved a lot!

Also whats the point in looking at last years sales?

EVER 360 SKU in EU is cheaper than EVERY PS3 SKU available in EU (this is not the case in america)

despite this outselling it by that much can be defined as a "whooping"

What gaga person? I am leo-j.. I don't think wii would have sold 700K if it was $249, it was barely outselling the 360 at that price , it needed a price cut to take back its spot

360 passes 13m in others... congrats

original xbox only managed 7.7m in its lifetime...

360 well on its way to more than double that.


MS should hire you, that's good PR spin  :)

That's not PR spin.

PR spin would be if he said that the 360 was below the PS3 because of consumer mentality shifting in the move to December...etc, with lots of psychoanalysis, and turning it into a good thing.

Kowenkicki just stated a fact. A fact which would ordinarily be overlooked, because it's not really of any significance (13 million isn't a major milestone, and the 360 overtook the Xbox in Europe LONG ago), but it's true, and there's no opinion or unsubstantiated rumour in his post.

Leo please tell me you aren't trying to take the wind out of these sales by saying it wouldn't have done it without the price cut

The first price cut it's had in its three years on the market

no, it isn't imo

not in NSMB Wii release week

while on their own 700K is AMAZING

YOY terms...its not too great

It will be a slow burner, Darth. That's just a fact of the times.

that I have n dount about

the game will have legs, amazing legs

but will it bring in new people to the wii

I would have liked to see wii be up YOY on NSMB Wii launch

but maybe EU/Japan launches will tip it over, it may be a greater system seller in those regions

In december wii should be UP YOY due to no supply problems this year

November + December total wii will be up YOY.  The difference is only 10% this week, and December sales could be up 75%-100%. 

People forget this quickly but just last year people were still lining up outside of stores to either sell them on ebay (they were selling for $350-$450 in december), and people wanted to make sure they could get them for their kids so they got them early.

This is why you don't suddenly change your avatar after keeping the same avatar for ten months, to an avatar you've never had before, while simultaneously changing your sig.

Most people didn't even know you liked Lady Gaga, until now.

NO I just want the old leo-j back

get rid of the GAGA avatar & sig please!!!!!!!!!!

Your old avatar was definitive!

@johsnobas

I HIGHLY doubt december sales will be up 70% - 100%

Hm, what about the PS3 outselling the XBox360 (total sales) in Europe within a month? Is it feasible?

EDIT: In Europe!
