Well done indeed. x360 is doing well in it's homeland.

@carl

Don't vgchartz cover "everything" so those walmart numbers would have been already included in it's total?

VGC track everything.

Not 100% positive about NPD though.

NPD tracks 60% of the market but not Wal-Mart and some smaller retailers/online things.  But they do estimate them to the best of their ability so it is 100% of the market covered in their numbers.  They don't like to let many people know that they do similar things to what VGC does but it is how they are able to represent it. 

Thanks for that. I thought I missed something.

Wow, wasn't Sony supposed to have a lead here?

well looks like mw2 and walmart deal worked wonders. more than PS3 black friday win.

at least we know ps3 can win december and christmas considering black friday were higher.



Both PS3 and XBOX 360 will be above 1 million for December!!!!!

Gonna be fun.....Can't wait! :)~



Yea i think most of us were aware of this after we saw the sales for the week walmart had the sales, that week the 360 was over the ps3 by 100k easy. the deals for the ps3 came too late in the month for Sony. Ahh well better luck next time.



Well done, 360.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Excellent sales! Love meh greenbox and am glad lots of other people are buying it

I don't think the word 'easily' is the right term with all the deals going on. Without the word easily in the thread title I would agree .



 

Wow MS is looking freaking brilliant with lack of bundles/price cuts for the arcade. While I always thought MS would come out ahead, I wasn't so sure when MS wasn't nearly as aggressive as I expected for the holidays. MS is going to have a hugely profitable quarter AND they saved all of their ammo for NATAL launch. This probably rules out an early year price cut. Now I expect a price cut after july 1, the start of the fiscal year, to clear stock for the valhalla/NATAL units which will launch at 199/299 in the fall.



This is setting up Natal for some amazing press next year when it launches. M$ is going to pimp that thing like crazy, and 360 might end up pushing numbers higher than 2008, which is going make it even more pronounced over 2009. Great job by all, especially PS3 for getting back in the game...that highly benefits us all in getting prices down!
